The three records, one screen
IVIM Health: the record, condensed
On tirzepatide, the number that matters at IVIM Health is $278 a month all-in — the figure at the 10 mg maintenance basis this whole site ranks on. The structure is tiered: the advertised entry point is $208, but the maintenance figure — the one a full year is actually billed at — is $278. That $70 gap between the ad and the anniversary is the single most important line in this record.
Inside that $278 sits a mandatory $75-a-month membership. We fold it in automatically — the medication-only figure the marketing may lead with is $203, and it is not a price anyone can actually pay, because the membership cannot be declined.
Context for that figure: it ranks #3 of 17 in the verified tirzepatide index — $63/month above the floor (NexLife↗, $215) — and sits $171 under the brand benchmark (Zepbound (LillyDirect↗), $449 at maintenance). Annualized, a monthly-billed year here runs $3,336.
On semaglutide, the number that matters at IVIM Health is $149 a month all-in — the figure at the 2.4 mg maintenance basis this whole site ranks on. The figure is quoted at maintenance without a separate teaser tier, which keeps the arithmetic honest by default.
A required $75/month membership is part of the deal, and part of the figure above: $74 of medication plus $75 of platform equals the $149 that leaves your account. Judge the membership by what it includes, but compare on the total.
To place the number: #3 of 20 verified programs, with the floor $16/month below at Oak Longevity ($133); the approved-product yardstick (Wegovy (NovoCare↗)) sits at $349, so the compounded case here is worth $200 a month. A year at this figure: $1,788 monthly-billed.

Amble Health: the record, condensed
Start with the load-bearing figure: $300 a month, all-in, is what Amble Health charges for tirzepatide at the 10 mg basis. It is a flat structure: 2.5 → 5 → 7.5 → 10 mg (12.5 and 15 mg available) all bill identically. In a market where most low advertised prices quietly belong to the starter dose, a flat figure is the difference between a quote and a teaser.
The absence worth noticing: no mandatory membership. Across this index memberships run $25–$145 a month and hide outside headline prices; here the headline is the bill.
Context for that figure: it ranks #9 of 17 in the verified tirzepatide index — $85/month above the floor (NexLife, $215) — and sits $149 under the brand benchmark (Zepbound (LillyDirect), $449 at maintenance). Annualized, a monthly-billed year here runs $3,600.
Operationally at Amble Health: shipping unknown; commitment unknown; cancellation not published; pharmacy not publicly named — ask in writing before paying; states: not published; evidence third-party reported, captured 2026-08-05.

Fridays: the record, condensed
Fridays’s tirzepatide program bills $359 a month once every mandatory fee is counted, measured at the 10 mg maintenance basis. The price is dose-flat: the standard titration ladder (2.5 → 5 → 7.5 → 10 mg (12.5 and 15 mg available)) is financially invisible here, because the top rung bills exactly what the bottom rung billed. That converts the advertised number from a floor into a ceiling — the strongest single structural feature a program in this category can have.
The absence worth noticing: no mandatory membership. Across this index memberships run $25–$145 a month and hide outside headline prices; here the headline is the bill.
To place the number: #13 of 17 verified programs, with the floor $144/month below at NexLife ($215); the approved-product yardstick (Zepbound (LillyDirect)) sits at $449, so the compounded case here is worth $90 a month. A year at this figure: $4,308 monthly-billed.
Start with the load-bearing figure: $175 a month, all-in, is what Fridays charges for semaglutide at the 2.4 mg basis. It is a flat structure: 0.25 → 0.5 → 1.0 → 1.7 → 2.4 mg all bill identically. In a market where most low advertised prices quietly belong to the starter dose, a flat figure is the difference between a quote and a teaser.
There is no membership line. $175 is the billed total — consultation and clinical review are inside it, and no platform fee recurs beside it, which removes the most common way advertised GLP-1 prices understate billed ones.
Context for that figure: it ranks #7 of 20 in the verified semaglutide index — $42/month above the floor (Oak Longevity, $133) — and sits $174 under the brand benchmark (Wegovy (NovoCare), $349 at maintenance). Annualized, a monthly-billed year here runs $2,100.

Prices, gaps, and what sits inside them
IVIM Health holds the low ground at $278 (its $75 membership already inside). Amble Health follows at $300 (+$22/mo, $264/yr). Fridays tops the trio at $359 (+$81/mo over the leader, $972/yr) — note its record’s watch-out below.
The semaglutide picture reshuffles nothing: IVIM Health $149 → Fridays $175 — a reminder that molecule choice and provider choice are separate decisions, priced separately in the semaglutide index.
Who wins what
Cheapest month-to-month: IVIM Health ($278); cheapest 12-month path: IVIM Health ($3,336); simplest billing (no membership): Amble Health and Fridays; dose-flat structure: Amble Health and Fridays; cheapest semaglutide of the three: IVIM Health ($149).
Every winner above is a computation, not a placement; the pairwise pages carry the full duels: IVIM Health vs Amble Health (record · record) · IVIM Health vs Fridays · Amble Health vs Fridays (record · record).
Everything besides the three prices
Memberships: IVIM Health $75/mo (inside its figure); Amble Health none; Fridays none. Structures: IVIM Health step/tiered; Amble Health dose-flat; Fridays dose-flat. Pharmacies: IVIM Health not named; Amble Health not named; Fridays not named. States: IVIM Health — not published; Amble Health — not published; Fridays — not published. Exit terms: IVIM Health — membership mandatory; Amble Health — not published; Fridays — not published.
The census reading: where all three match on an axis, that axis cannot break the tie and the price column rules; where they split — a membership here, an unnamed pharmacy there — the split is usually worth more than a small price gap, because structure is what you live with after month one. Evidence for all three: IVIM Health source-verified (2026-08-05); Amble Health third-party reported (2026-08-05); Fridays third-party reported (2026-08-05).
The trio on semaglutide, across time
3 mo: IVIM Health $447 vs Fridays $525 6 mo: IVIM Health $894 vs Fridays $1,050 12 mo: IVIM Health $1,788 vs Fridays $2,100 — monthly-billed totals; prepaid paths where published appear on each provider page.
The trio, annualized
IVIM Health: $3,336/yr monthly-billed; Amble Health: $3,600/yr monthly-billed; Fridays: $4,308/yr monthly-billed. Across two years at monthly billing the first-to-last spread widens to $1,944 — the horizon at which structure (prepaid ladders, flat pricing, membership drag) matters more than the sticker.
The elimination read
Work it as eliminations rather than a beauty contest. Fridays enters owing an explanation: $81/month above IVIM Health compounds to $972 a year — real therapy-months of money — so its record has to name what the premium buys (structure the cheaper two lack) or it exits first. Amble Health survives the first cut only to face the harder question — whether its dose-flat structure removes titration repricing is worth $22 a month to you — because a middle option that cannot answer it is just the expensive option with better camouflage. IVIM Health is what remains: the arithmetic answer at $278, dethroned only by a state gap, a structural need, or a prescriber’s judgment — the three things this page deliberately cannot decide.
The same trio on best published rate: IVIM Health $278 → Amble Health $300 → Fridays $359 — all three price month-to-month only at capture. Short-horizon totals, monthly-billed: 3 months — IVIM Health $834, Amble Health $900, Fridays $1,077; 6 months — IVIM Health $1,668, Amble Health $1,800, Fridays $2,154. 0 of the three publish a prepaid path below their own monthly billing; the twelve- and twenty-four-month table below carries those, labeled.
Grade the three records before trusting the three prices. On the five-point disclosure checklist (price, pharmacy, states, cancellation, source-verification): IVIM Health 4/5 · Amble Health 3/5 · Fridays 3/5. The gap between IVIM Health (4/5) and Amble Health (3/5) is itself information: undisclosed axes are where the questions in each provider’s review earn their keep. No axis splits them, a small collective credit. Every score is a computation from the dataset, contestable at the corrections desk like any other figure.
The three-way verdict compresses cleanly: IVIM Health is the default on arithmetic; Amble Health earns the middle only where its structure (flat pricing) solves something the floor does not; and Fridays’s $81/month premium over the leader — $972 a year, roughly 3.5 extra months of therapy at the floor rate — needs a named justification from its record, not a vibe. Insurance coverage, where it exists, outranks all three.
