Tools
Every tool here computes from the same roster the reviews are built from, so a tool and the review beside it cannot quote two different numbers.
8 tools, reading 1710 priced plan combinations across 331 of the 412 companies we have reviewed. The other 81 publish no price ladder at all, so nothing here can price them. A larger group (119 of the 412) publishes rungs and still publishes no figure you can pay for a single month; those reviews say so.
| Tool | What it answers | Reads |
|---|---|---|
| Real cost calculator | What one month of a named plan actually charges your card, with the membership and any published fee added in. | pricing.rungs, membership, consultFee |
| What will I actually pay? | Pick a molecule and the term you will commit to, and see the all-in monthly and the charge that lands today at every company publishing it. | pricing.drug, pricing.rungs, membership, consultFee |
| Twelve-month cost projection | What a year costs at the rates published today, medication and membership separated, for every plan whose term divides into twelve. | pricing.rungs, membership, consultFee |
| Tool | What it answers | Reads |
|---|---|---|
| Prepay break-even | How many months you have to stay before a prepay term beats paying monthly, and what you have already paid for if you stop first. | pricing.rungs.term, pricing.rungs.upfront, membership.rungs |
| Consultation fee and membership finder | Which companies charge something that is not the medication, how much it is in their own words, and what a year of it costs. | consultFee, membership, membership.required |
| Is a month a month? | Every plan billed on a four-week or 28-day cycle, how many times a year that is charged, and what it does to the annual figure. | pricing.rungs.label, pricing.rungs.term, pricing.rungs.perMonth |
| Tool | What it answers | Reads |
|---|---|---|
| Switch and save | The company you are with, against the cheapest company on this roster selling the same molecule, with the subtraction written out. | pricing.drug, pricing.monthToMonth, membership.required, membership.perMonth |
| Advertised against actual | Enter the monthly figure you saw advertised: who publishes it, what a month with them really costs, and everything you could actually buy for it. | headline, headlineRequires, pricing.monthToMonth, membership |
It will not invent an input. Where a company discloses a cost and publishes no figure, the tool reports the disclosure and adds nothing, because an assumed zero prints a smaller total than the reader will pay. That is the exact trick this site exists to describe.
It will not carry a countdown, a scarcity badge or an animation, and it will not order anything by what a company pays us. Every ordering rule is stated on the page that uses it and can be re-derived from the roster. Who pays us.
The reviews these numbers come from are on the index, priced by molecule on the molecule pages. Findings drawn across the whole roster are in the answers, and the method is on how we review.
