Head-to-head dispatch

Shape Vantage vs Sunlight

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.

Dispatch #440
Shape Vantage

Shape Vantage is a tirzepatide reseller with a hybrid gray-market profile that does not match the typical compounded-telehealth model.

$599/mo (compounded) tirz · Verified June 6, 2026

vs
Dispatch #24Desk pick
Sunlight

A LegitScript-certified compounded GLP-1 telehealth brand with flat, openly published pricing — semaglutide from $88/mo, tirzepatide from $157/mo — plus a separate peptide-therapy program (NAD+, and per the live site, sermorelin) under its own intake.

Starts at $88/mo (compounded, injection) sema · Starts at $157/mo (compounded, injection) tirz · Verified August 4, 2026

Marked down on: Injectable only for GLP-1 — no oral tablet route on semaglutide or tirzepatide, despite a generic "Injections and oral options available" line in one landing page's hero that matches nothing else on the site

Sunlight takes this head-to-head with the higher Desk Score, 84/100 (B) against 49/100 (C) for Shape Vantage. Shape Vantage still holds its ground where its strengths line up with yours.

CoreAge Rx tops every dispatch at 94/100

Whichever of these two you lean toward, the Desk's #1-rated provider outscores them both. The Desk's top dispatch: one price at every dose, both molecules, all 50 states — but the $99 and $149 figures are 12-month plans paid up front, not a monthly bill.
