How many steps before a GLP-1 company shows you a price?

Between zero and thirty-four. Of the 0 intakes on record, 3 put a price on screen before asking anything a clinician would ask, 1 needed no intake at all, and 6 ended with no figure on any screen we reached.

How many steps does it actually take?

Anywhere from none to thirty-four, and the spread is the finding. A step here is one screen that asks for something: a goal, a state, a date of birth, a medical history question, a plan choice. Each company's count is in its review.

In those historical observations, the longest was TrimRx at 34 steps, which is also the funnel that ran a countdown and a discount counter beside the price once it finally appeared. FuturHealth took 27. At the other end, EllieMD put a figure on screen at step two, before it asked anything medical at all.

Does the medical questionnaire come first?

Often not. 3 of the 0 funnels showed a price before any medical question, and on two of them there was no medical questionnaire anywhere in the flow. That matters because a price that arrives before the clinical questions cannot be personalized to your answers. It is a product price with an intake wrapped around it.

WeightCare is the clearest case. Its plan selector arrives with the six-month card already chosen, every call to action adds a product to a cart, and the cart takes a single $1,290 payment described as “Deliver every 6 months”, beneath the words no commitments, cancel anytime. Nothing clinical happened between the landing page and that cart.

What stops an intake before a price appears?

An account, or a commitment. 3 of these intakes ended at a create-account screen with a password field, and one ended at a checkbox. Neither is a price we can report, and both are findings about the funnel rather than about what the company charges.

GobyMeds is the starkest: every call to action on the marketing site, the one labeled Start Quiz included, resolves to a registration form, and no medical questionnaire precedes it. Coby Health hits the same wall three steps in. In both cases the prices in those reviews come from the public product pages, so they have URLs behind them rather than screens behind the wall.

Henry Meds is the one that inverts the order. Fourteen guided steps, no account and no password at any point, and then a plan screen with five options and no price on any of them, followed by a checkbox committing you to pay the subscription fee for the full contract term if prescribed. We did not tick it, because ticking it accepts a financial commitment. Read the prices first: Henry publishes its full list on a legal page, its programs page, linked from the footer as Programs.

Which funnels never showed a price at all?

Two, and both of them are selling something other than a drug. PlushCare ran eight screens from its candidacy quiz to a profile screen without a figure, though it publishes its membership and visit prices openly. Push Health is a marketplace: the whole single-page request runs to a terms checkbox, which is where a provider-set fee would be accepted, and no number appears anywhere before it.

That is why no review here says a company has no price. A price we didn't reach is a fact about our visit, not about the company. The two are different claims and only one of them is ours to make.

Why does the order matter?

Because the order tells you what the intake is for. A funnel that quotes you before it asks anything clinical is a checkout with questions attached; a funnel that quotes you at step 27 has had twenty-six screens to shape what you expect to pay before it names a figure. Both are legal and neither is hidden. But only one of them lets you compare before you invest twenty minutes.

It also decides whether the price a reader saw is the one they can hold anyone to. Some figures appear only after an intake. See what the checkout shows you that the home page doesn't for the countdowns and preselected plans that come with them, and the advertised-price comparison for how often the public figure survives contact with the funnel.

What doesn't this cover?

It covers 0 of the 412 companies published here and nothing else. The other 412 are priced from their own public pages, which is a different kind of evidence. Each intake is one session, on one day, from one connection and one test profile. A funnel that behaves differently for a different profile would not show up here, so none of this generalizes beyond a single pass.

Every step count is our own count of screens, not a figure any company publishes. Where a company disputes one, the screenshots are on file and the review carries the date.

What else do people ask about GLP-1 intakes?

• Why go through the intake instead of reading the price off the home page?Because on most of these sites the home-page figure is a floor rather than a price. Of the 0 intakes below, 6 produced a figure that appears on no public page in that form, and one, Henry Meds, asked for a commitment to pay before its checkout would show an amount, although its full price list sits on a public legal page the intake never links to. Each intake stops at payment entry or account creation, and the review carries the step count and the screen.
• Do you create an account or enter card details to get a price?Never. 3 of the 0 walks below ended at an account-creation screen with a password field, and none of them went further. Those rows record where the funnel stopped rather than what the company charges, because a price behind a password is not a price we can report.
• Does a fast price mean a company is more transparent?Not on this evidence. 3 of the 0 funnels put a figure in front of us before asking a single medical question, and two of those three, PeterMD and WeightCare, asked no medical question anywhere in the flow. A number that arrives that early is a product page, not a quote. Lavender Sky Health is the one company here that publishes prices openly with no intake required.
• How long does the longest intake take?In the August 2026 intake research, TrimRx was the longest at 34 steps from its home page to the plan screen and order summary. FuturHealth took 27, Breeze Meds 16 to a quote, Synergy Rx 14, Henry Meds 14 guided steps to a plan screen carrying no price, and Form Health 11 to a checkout showing $299. Those are historical observations, not a fresh measurement of today’s enrollment flows.

Every sentence below is this site's own dated record of a screen we reached on August 31, 2026, quoted from the review it belongs to. They are our words, not the companies', and the table is headed that way on purpose.

How the buckets are decided. A price with no intake at all: The price is published on the open web and the intake is optional. Zero steps. A price before any medical question: A figure appeared before the funnel asked anything a clinician would ask, and in one case before it asked anything at all. A price after the intake: The intake ran first and a figure appeared at the end of it, at the step recorded in the row. The commitment before the price: A financial commitment was demanded on the same screen that would then disclose the amount. An account before anything: An account with a password was required before the funnel would continue. We do not open accounts. No price on any screen we reached: No figure appeared on any screen short of paying or registering. Each row carries the sentence it was classified on, so the label can be checked rather than trusted.

Some companies named here pay us a commission when a reader starts care through a marked link. The one marked link on this page is one of them, picked by rule and disclosed beside it. Nothing above is ordered by who pays: the table is ordered by where the price appeared, and every figure is read out of the roster. Who pays us · how we review · every review.
