Head-to-head comparison
bmiMD vs Embody
Two GLP-1 providers, one scorecard. Both are graded on the same six Desk Score dimensions — here is how they stack up, and which one fits you.
Desk Score
Flat at every dose on both molecules and among the cheapest here — as long as you read past the tab the page opens on.
$129/mo sema · $179/mo tirz · Verified September 2026
Marked down on: The pricing block opens on the 3-Month tab, so the figure a reader meets first is a commitment rate rather than a month.
Desk Score
Embody offers compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide via injection plus a unique compounded oral tirzepatide gum formulation.
$79/mo (promo rate) sema · $129/mo (promo rate) tirz · Verified July 2026
Marked down on: The $79 flat rate relies on an auto-applied promo 'locked forever' — list price in the terms is $199/mo and reviewers allege the lock isn't honored
Embody takes this head-to-head with the higher Desk Score, 83/100 (B) against 77/100 (C+) for bmiMD. bmiMD still holds its ground where its strengths line up with yours.
