Found

What you're buying

Found sells a program, not a prescription, and the medication list behind it is the widest we cover. Compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide sit alongside brand Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro, Saxenda and Victoza, oral Foundayo — which is orforglipron, a tablet rather than an injection — oral Rybelsus, and the non-GLP-1 options Contrave, metformin, topiramate and zonisamide. There is a dedicated microdosing program too. If your clinician wants to move you between molecules, routes or drug classes, they can do it without you changing providers.

What the membership buys around the drug is access to certified clinicians, a personalized care plan, healthy-habits guidance, a member community and Aimee, an AI concierge you can message or send photos of meals to. The medical bench is named and substantial: Jonathan Larson as medical director, and advisors including Judith Korner, founding director of the Columbia University Weight Management Center, Rekha Kumar, an endocrinologist who was medical director of the national certifying body in obesity medicine, Shebani Sethi of Stanford and Kyu Rhee. Found notes that Dr. Kumar does not interact directly with patients, which is the kind of qualifier most sites leave out.

What it costs (and how it's billed)

Found's pricing page leads with two numbers and then corrects them in its own footnote. The headline is "starting at $99/mo with insurance" and "$169/mo with cash pay", asterisked to: "Pricing based on 12-month plans paid up-front. Monthly plans start at $199/mo for insurance and $289/mo for cash-pay. Visits for insurance plans may require copays."

So $99 is two things a cash-paying reader is not — it is the insurance rate and it is a twelve-month prepay — and it still sits in front of a copay Found puts at "typically around $30" a visit. For a cash patient the real range is $169/mo if you pay for a year up front, which comes to $2,028 in one charge, or $289/mo if you want to be able to stop. Plans can be switched at any time by contacting support.

One thing here is genuinely better than the headline suggests, and it is worth stating clearly: compounded medication is included in the plan price on both the insurance and the cash-pay side. The FAQ says so in as many words. Only branded GLP-1s are billed separately and are not included in the prices listed. So on the compounded line the advertised figure really is the all-in cost, which is unusual for a membership-priced service. A promotional banner offering up to $100 off a membership plan was running on the day we read the site.

Who can order

Found operates nationally, but the insurance side does not. The state selector on the pricing page lists exactly 41 states where Found accepts insurance plans, and nine are missing: Alaska, Arkansas, Delaware, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, Rhode Island, Vermont and West Virginia, along with Washington, D.C. If you live in one of those, the $99 headline is not available to you at any plan length, and cash pay is the only route.

Found also says plainly that prescriptions are up to a medical provider's discretion and "not available in all states," without naming which. Between the two, the practical footprint is narrower than the service footprint, and the difference is not on the page you land on.

How the intake works

Four steps: check eligibility, meet your provider, have your care tailored, start the program. A pre-purchase survey comes before a longer health assessment, and a Found clinician personalizes the prescription from there. Found publishes that in a year its members lost an average of 12% of body weight, based on 1,773 people who reported a weight at least once a week — a real denominator, disclosed, which is rarer than it should be.

Ongoing care runs through the app, with Aimee handling nutrition feedback and habit guidance between clinician contacts. There is a help center and a contact page; published support hours and a phone number are not on the pages we read.

What we'd want changed

Lead with $289. The footnote on Found's pricing page is complete, accurate and immediately below the headline — the company is not hiding anything — but the headline is a number that requires insurance Found may not accept in your state and a year of money paid in advance, which stacks two conditions on top of each other. A cash reader deciding in ten seconds gets a figure that is about a third of what they would pay.

The other gap is the copay. "Typically around $30" for a visit is fine as an estimate, but it means the insurance rate is not a total at all, while the cash rate is. Presenting them side by side as if they were the same kind of number is the part that misleads. We would also like the states where prescriptions are unavailable named, given that Found already publishes its insurance list in full.

Bottom line

Found is the most clinically serious option here — a real advisory panel with names you can look up, published outcome data with a stated sample, and a medication bench deep enough that a clinician can genuinely move you between compounded, brand and oral routes. Compounded medication is inside the plan price, which makes the cash figures honest once you find them. Budget $289 a month if you want flexibility, or $2,028 up front if you are certain, and check the insurance state list before you plan around the $99 number.
