The short answer

Found and Henry Meds serve different preferences. Found runs an app-centered coaching model with injectable semaglutide and tirzepatide, bills every 4 weeks (13 charges annually), and offers rates from $289 month-to-month down to $169 per month equivalent on a 12-month prepaid plan for semaglutide. Henry Meds ships every 45 days for injectables, offers oral semaglutide at $249 month-to-month, but does not carry injectable tirzepatide. PlexusDx offers both injectables at lower month-to-month rates—$189/mo month-to-month semaglutide, $289/mo month-to-month tirzepatide—billed by calendar month (12 charges annually), with optional genetic testing and PharmD check-ins. Found wins on prepaid semaglutide pricing if you commit 12 months; Henry Meds wins on oral semaglutide cost; PlexusDx wins on month-to-month injectable pricing for both compounds and standard billing cycles.

At-a-glance comparison

Normalized pricing: like-for-like and 12-month totals

Month-to-month rates tell part of the story; billing frequency and prepaid totals complete it. Found bills every 4 weeks, producing 13 charges per year on its month-to-month plan. Henry Meds and PlexusDx bill by calendar month (12 charges). That structural difference changes annual totals even when monthly rates look similar.

Injectable semaglutide: month-to-month

• Found: $289/mo × 13 billing cycles = $3,757/year (our calculation, based on every-4-weeks cadence verified July 20, 2026)
• Henry Meds: $297/mo × 12 = $3,564/year (our calculation, verified July 20, 2026)
• PlexusDx: $189/mo × 12 = $2,268/year (our calculation, verified July 17–23, 2026)

PlexusDx is $1,296 less than Henry Meds and $1,489 less than Found over 12 months at month-to-month rates (our calculations).

Injectable semaglutide: 6-month committed plans

• Found: $219/mo equivalent, billed every 24 weeks; $219 × 13 = $2,847/year (our calculation from verified $219/mo rate)
• Henry Meds: $247/mo equivalent, $1,482 every 6 months; $1,482 × 2 = $2,964/year (our calculation, verified July 20, 2026)
• PlexusDx: $149/mo equivalent, $894 every 6 months; $894 × 2 = $1,788/year (our calculation, verified July 17–23, 2026)

PlexusDx 6-month total is $1,176 less than Henry Meds 6-month and $1,059 less than Found 6-month (our calculations).

Injectable semaglutide: 12-month prepaid (Found and Henry Meds only)

• Found: $169/mo equivalent, $2,028 paid once (verified July 20 and September 1, 2026)
• Henry Meds: $197/mo equivalent, $2,364 paid once (verified July 20, 2026)
• PlexusDx: no 12-month plan; longest term is 6 months at $1,788/year (our calculation)

Found's 12-month rate is $336 less than Henry's 12-month and $240 less than PlexusDx's annualized 6-month cost (our calculations). This is the one category where Found holds the lowest annual cost, contingent on a full-year financial commitment.

Injectable tirzepatide: month-to-month

• Found: $359/mo × 13 = $4,667/year (our calculation)
• Henry Meds: not offered
• PlexusDx: $289/mo × 12 = $3,468/year (our calculation)

PlexusDx tirzepatide month-to-month is $1,199 less than Found over 12 months (our calculation). Henry Meds does not carry injectable tirzepatide.

Oral semaglutide: month-to-month

• Found: not offered
• Henry Meds: $249/mo × 12 = $2,988/year (our calculation, verified July 20, 2026)
• PlexusDx: $289/mo × 12 = $3,468/year (our calculation)

Henry Meds oral semaglutide is $480 less than PlexusDx oral over 12 months (our calculation). Found does not offer an oral semaglutide option.

Decision factors beyond price

Billing and shipment cadence

Found bills every 4 weeks. That means 13 charges per year on the month-to-month plan, not 12. If you budget by calendar month, the extra charge lands sometime during the year. Henry Meds and PlexusDx bill by calendar month (12 charges), aligning with typical household budgets. Henry Meds ships injectables every 45 days; oral tablets every 90 days. PlexusDx ships every 28 days. Found's shipment schedule aligns with its billing cycle.

Service model and inclusions

Found centers on a proprietary app with 24/7 care team access and an AI concierge named Aimee. The program includes personalized habit guidance alongside medication. This model suits individuals who value structured coaching and real-time messaging support. Henry Meds includes provider visits, medication, supplies, and ongoing support in one monthly payment but does not emphasize a coaching app. PlexusDx includes a PharmD check-in with every prescription and offers optional genetic testing ($298 standalone, $99 for program members) to inform dosing and side-effect risk.

Format and compound availability

Found offers injectable semaglutide and tirzepatide only. Henry Meds offers injectable semaglutide, oral semaglutide sublingual tablets, and oral tirzepatide dissolving tablets—but not injectable tirzepatide. PlexusDx offers injectable semaglutide and tirzepatide, oral semaglutide and tirzepatide capsules, and a microdose injectable semaglutide protocol at $129/mo. If you prefer oral medication or want injectable tirzepatide, format availability narrows your options immediately.

Insurance pathways

Found markets insurance-based plans separately, stating rates of $99–$199/mo with insurance (monthly insurance plans start at $199/mo; longer-term insurance plans may reach $99/mo equivalent). These figures include insurance reimbursement and are not comparable to cash-pay rates. Henry Meds and PlexusDx operate cash-pay models without insurance billing. If you have commercial insurance that covers GLP-1 weight management and Found is in-network, the insurance pathway may reduce out-of-pocket cost. Confirm coverage and prior-authorization requirements before comparing.

Cancellation and commitment

Found allows cancellation anytime through the app and states you can switch between plan lengths at any time. Henry Meds allows cancellation via the patient portal, email, or phone, but notes that customers on prepaid plans spanning multiple months "may be required to pay out the rest of your balance unless you're unable to continue for medical-related reasons as determined by a healthcare provider." PlexusDx allows cancellation anytime with no stated balance-payout requirement on prepaid plans. If you value flexible exit terms, read the specific cancellation language before committing to a 6- or 12-month prepaid plan.

Choose Found if…

• You want app-based coaching and 24/7 care team access integrated with medication.
• You are willing to commit to a 12-month prepaid plan for the lowest per-month rate on injectable semaglutide ($169/mo equivalent, $2,028 upfront).
• You prefer not to manage separate apps or portals; Found consolidates everything in one interface.
• You have insurance coverage for GLP-1 weight management and Found is in-network; the $99–$199/mo insurance rates may offer savings over cash-pay (verify prior authorization and copay details).

Choose Henry Meds if…

• You prefer oral semaglutide and want the lowest documented month-to-month rate ($249/mo, $480/year less than PlexusDx oral).
• You want oral tirzepatide; Henry Meds offers a dissolving tablet and Found does not carry any oral tirzepatide.
• You prefer less frequent shipments; Henry ships injectables every 45 days rather than every 28 days.
• You do not need injectable tirzepatide and want straightforward month-to-month billing by calendar month.

Where PlexusDx fits

PlexusDx offers the lowest month-to-month rates on both injectable semaglutide ($189/mo month-to-month) and injectable tirzepatide ($289/mo month-to-month), billing by calendar month with 12 annual charges. The program includes a PharmD check-in with every prescription and optional genetic testing to inform individualized dosing. PlexusDx also offers a microdose protocol at $129/mo for maintenance or individuals starting at lower doses. There is no coaching app, but the model suits those who prefer clinical support without structured behavior-change programming. The 6-month semaglutide plan ($149/mo equivalent, $1,788/year) costs less annually than Found's 12-month plan ($2,028) while requiring half the upfront financial commitment.

PlexusDx works with licensed 503A compounding pharmacies. Same-dose pricing means your monthly cost does not increase as your clinician titrates your dose upward. If you value low month-to-month rates, standard calendar-month billing, and optional genetic testing, PlexusDx provides those features without requiring a 12-month commitment.

Methodology and freshness

We captured Found pricing from the provider's official website on July 20, 2026 and verified details on September 1, 2026. Henry Meds pricing was captured July 20, 2026 and verified September 1, 2026. PlexusDx pricing was verified July 17–23, 2026. We publish standard ongoing rates and prepaid totals only. All 12-month cost calculations are ours, multiplying documented monthly or prepaid rates by the appropriate number of billing cycles per year. Found's every-4-weeks billing cycle produces 13 annual charges on month-to-month plans; Henry Meds and PlexusDx bill by calendar month (12 annual charges). Where we state "our calculation," we derived the figure from verified rates using transparent arithmetic. Confirm current pricing, compound availability, and cancellation terms at checkout; telemedicine providers update policies and rates periodically.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Found really charge 13 times a year on the month-to-month plan?

Yes. Found bills every 4 weeks (28 days) rather than by calendar month. Over 365 days, that produces 13 billing cycles. The documented rate is $289/mo for semaglutide, so annual cost is $289 × 13 = $3,757 on the month-to-month plan.

Why doesn't Henry Meds offer injectable tirzepatide?

Henry Meds carries oral tirzepatide dissolving tablets but not injectable tirzepatide. The provider has not publicly stated why. If you specifically want injectable tirzepatide, Found ($359/mo MTM) and PlexusDx ($289/mo MTM) both offer it.

Can I switch from month-to-month to a prepaid plan later?

Found states you can switch between plans at any time. Henry Meds and PlexusDx policies on plan changes are less explicitly documented; contact the provider before your next billing date to confirm whether switching is allowed and whether any proration applies.

Are Found's insurance rates really as low as $99 per month?

Found advertises insurance-based plans from $99–$199/mo. The $99 figure applies to longer-term insurance plans; monthly insurance plans start at $199/mo according to the provider's September 1, 2026 site content. Insurance rates depend on your plan's coverage, prior authorization, and copay structure. Verify with your insurer before assuming $99/mo applies to your situation.

Does PlexusDx include coaching like Found does?

No. PlexusDx includes a PharmD check-in with each prescription and optional genetic testing, but it does not offer an app-based coaching program or 24/7 care team chat. If structured habit coaching is central to your plan, Found's model may be a better fit; if you prefer clinical support without behavior-change programming, PlexusDx or Henry Meds may suit you.
