Head-to-head comparison
CoreAge Rx vs System Labs
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
One price at every dose, both molecules, all 50 states. The $99 and $149 figures are 12-month plans paid up front, not a monthly bill.
$99/mo (12-month prepay) sema · $149/mo (12-month prepay) tirz · Verified August 2026
Marked down on: The advertised $99/$149 per month is a 12-month plan paid in full ($1,188 / $1,788 up front); no month-to-month price is published
Desk Score
One molecule, one route, one price — a flat $179/mo tirzepatide subscription with the rate written out in the provider's own words rather than teased as a floor.
Not offered — no semaglutide product sema · $179/mo tirz · Verified August 2026
Marked down on: One molecule only — the program is a compounded tirzepatide-based GLP-1/GIP and there is no semaglutide product at all, so switching molecules means switching provider
CoreAge Rx takes this head-to-head with the higher Desk Score, 94/100 (A) against 75/100 (C) for System Labs. System Labs still holds its ground where its strengths line up with yours.
