Short answer: Gala scores higher on our rubric, 7.2/10 against 4.2/10. Full reasoning, pricing and the cases where the other one wins are below.

Gala beats Trimi Health overall, scoring 7.2/10 vs 4.2/10. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: Gala is from $149/mo; Trimi Health is $175/mo month-to-month. Choose Gala for patients who want gala's low yearly-plan rate on compounded glp-1, $149/mo microdose or $179/mo with all doses included, and will use its free companion app for daily progress logging. Choose Trimi Health for cash-pay patients who want the cheapest flat-price compounded semaglutide we track ($99/mo on the annual plan) and will accept a trustpilot rating the platform has withheld for a guidelines breach, plus no-pro-rating cancellation terms, in exchange.

Gala

#18 of 34
7.2/10

Telehealth platform whose compounded GLP-1 line covers semaglutide and tirzepatide, sold as a $149/mo microdose tier and a $179/mo all-doses tier, alongside brand-name Ozempic at $1,299/mo and a 'coming soon' Wegovy pill. Operated by AI Coaching, Inc. of Wilmington, Delaware, with care delivered by OpenLoop-affiliated medical groups; Gala states it provides administrative, technology and management services and does not itself provide medical care. It is LegitScript verified and promotes a free Gala GLP-1 app for in-treatment dosing, weight and side-effect logging.

Trimi Health

#32 of 34
4.2/10

Telehealth platform for compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide. Weekly injections in vial-and-syringe format only, no pens, no oral option. Pricing is flat across all doses, with the consult and overnight shipping included, and both price ladders are published on the treatment pages with no intake required. Prescriptions route through the Arora Health medical group, whose named leads are Dr. Sean Arora MD (medical director) and Dr. Shannon Arora MD (chief medical officer), and are filled by VialsRx and GreenwichRx, which the site describes as state-licensed 503A sterile compounding pharmacies. The site says it was founded in May 2024 and is headquartered in New York City, and publishes no street address and no legal entity name.

Pros & Cons Compared

Gala

Pros

  • +Compounded GLP-1 is $149/mo on the microdose tier or $179/mo with all doses included on the yearly plan, and Gala's about page lists GLP-1 medication from $199/mo on a 3-month plan
  • +A free Gala GLP-1 app for in-treatment logging, promoted in the footer of every page; first-party logging is uncommon among compounded-only platforms
  • +OpenLoop-affiliated medical groups + LegitScript verification provide third-party accountability that many compounded-only platforms lack
  • +All 50 states, free shipping, no insurance required, 24/7 patient support claimed

Cons

  • Brand-name Ozempic here is $1,299/mo, materially above NovoCare's Wegovy pen $199/mo for the first two 0.25 mg or 0.5 mg fills through December 31, 2026, then $349/mo at standard strengths or $399/mo for Wegovy HD; oral pill from $149/mo, dose-dependent. Buy brand-name elsewhere; Gala's value is its compounded GLP-1 line.
  • Product pages quote only the yearly subscription, its about page lists a 3-month GLP-1 plan from $199/mo, and the plan you actually get is set at checkout after you log in
  • Mixed Trustpilot reviews mention dosing inconsistencies and slow customer service responsiveness, verify your specific dose and batch with each refill
  • Initial consultation is typically a sync video visit, but ongoing follow-ups are chat-based (no scheduled ongoing video access), and Gala publishes no lab panel for the GLP-1 program, no named medical director and no specialty obesity oversight; its refund policy does list lab services among what the subscription price may cover
  • Restrictive refund policy, Gala's published terms state 'IN NO EVENT SHALL YOU BE ISSUED A REFUND UPON CANCELLATION OF THE SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES' with a narrow exception for provider-initiated medical disqualification. No money-back guarantee. Read the published policy at galaglp1.com/refund-policy before enrolling on a commitment plan
  • Newer brand under AI Coaching, Inc. (founded 2024 per LinkedIn), limited public company history; founders, founding year, and named medical director not publicly disclosed on galaglp1.com itself

Trimi Health

Pros

  • +$99/mo compounded semaglutide on the annual plan (billed $1,188 once yearly) is among the cheapest flat recurring rates we track; tirzepatide annual is $125/mo ($1,500 yearly)
  • +Flat pricing across all doses, your monthly price does not rise as your dose titrates up
  • +Consult and overnight shipping included in the plan price, no add-on fees; HSA/FSA accepted, Klarna and Affirm financing available
  • +Two named physicians, Dr. Sean Arora MD (medical director) and Dr. Shannon Arora MD (chief medical officer) of the Arora Health medical group, most compounded-only platforms name no one
  • +Compounding pharmacies named and classed: VialsRx (Texas license #35264) and GreenwichRx, both described on the site as state-licensed 503A sterile compounding pharmacies, most competitors do not name theirs
  • +Available in all 50 states plus DC per trytrimi.com/states
  • +6-month money-back weight-loss promise published (conditions apply, read them before counting on it)

Cons

  • Trustpilot has withheld Trimi's star rating for a breach of its review guidelines and says it removed a number of fake reviews. Of the 62 reviews still shown there, 53 percent are one star, with recent ones citing ineffective medication and unanswered requests for a certificate of analysis (checked 2026-09-03)
  • Once a prescription is signed, payments are final, no pro-rating, cancelling an annual plan mid-year forfeits the remainder. Full refund is available only BEFORE the prescription is signed
  • The site names New York City as its base but publishes no street address and no legal entity name, calling itself only 'Trimi Health' with no LLC or Inc suffix on its contact, about, terms or FAQ pages (rendered check 2026-09-03)
  • Vial-and-syringe format only, no autoinjector pens, no oral option, no brand-name medications
  • Trimi says it is LegitScript certified on its treatment pages and links to LegitScript's own checker, but that checker page shows no certification record for trytrimi.com (checked 2026-09-03)
  • The terms carry a mandatory arbitration clause and a class action waiver, with a written opt-out available within 30 days of first accepting them
  • The site contradicts itself on commitment: the treatment page FAQ says you can cancel any time with no long-term commitments, while the pricing page and refund policy say the quarterly, 6-month and annual tiers are commitments for their stated term and payments are final once a prescription is issued (checked 2026-09-03)
  • Free overnight shipping only starts counting after clinician review and after the pharmacy compounds the order, so Trimi's own reviews page puts the honest end to end wait at a few days rather than one night (verified 2026-09-03)

Our Verdict

Gala edges out Trimi Health with a score of 7.2/10 vs 4.2/10. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: Gala is from $149/mo; Trimi Health is $175/mo month-to-month. Gala offers both brand-name and compounded medications, giving you more flexibility.

Cheapest complete recurring price in our index

Eden Health GLP-1

$99/mo month-to-month, from $34 on a plan · 6.9/10 · Both

Both Gala and Trimi Health start above the cheapest complete recurring program we track. Across all 34 providers in our index, the lowest price with affirmative medication, consultation, and shipping inclusion is Eden Health GLP-1 at $99/mo, price checked August 28, 2026. It scores 6.9/10 and is not the highest-scored provider in our full rankings, so this is a cost floor rather than a recommendation. Worth knowing before you decide.
