Pros & Cons Compared

Found

Pros

  • +Active insurance coordination, Found contacts your insurer and reports which GLP-1s are covered, prior auth requirements, and estimated copay
  • +10+ medication options including both compounded and brand-name (Wegovy, Zepbound, Wegovy pill), the widest formulary of any platform
  • +Typical insured copay of ~$30/mo for most members, dramatically lower than cash-pay alternatives
  • +Most members start treatment within one week of completing the health questionnaire

Cons

  • Costs vary by insurance status and medication choice rather than one flat rate; run Found's coverage check first to see your exact copay before paying
  • The insurance navigation process adds steps compared to simple cash-pay platforms; the payoff is the ~$30 typical copay
  • Compounded medication availability may shift with FDA enforcement changes; the 10+ medication formulary lets your clinician move you to a brand-name option if it does

Sesame Care

Pros

  • +Success by Sesame program launched 2026, $59/mo on a 3/6/12-month plan, includes labs, unlimited messaging, and provider choice; medication is separate
  • +Brand-name cash pricing is competitive, Wegovy pen $199 intro / $349 ongoing, Zepbound vial $299, Wegovy pill $149
  • +Foundayo (Lilly's FDA-approved oral GLP-1) available as of April 2026 at $149/mo
  • +Original pay-per-visit model still available at $25/consultation for users who just need a prescriber

Cons

  • Two distinct products (pay-per-visit vs the Success membership) sit side by side, so decide which you're buying before checkout
  • The $59/mo Success by Sesame rate requires a 3-month minimum commitment; month-to-month is available at $99/mo if you don't want to commit
  • Compounded meds are de-emphasized in the current marketing, the platform now leads with FDA-approved brand-name paths
  • A marketplace rather than a concierge, expect less hand-holding than dedicated subscription platforms
