Superpower

+Physician-founded (team includes doctors from Stanford, Harvard, Oxford, and UCLA) with a 4.5/5 Trustpilot average
+$349/year undercuts comparable diagnostics-membership competitors and includes optional add-on prescriptions and peptides that pure lab-testing rivals don't offer
+AI-assisted result interpretation paired with on-demand clinician access
−Trustpilot sample is still small (354 reviews) for a nationwide brand — the 4.5 average should be read with that caveat
−No phone-based customer support; patients describe extended email/text-only support cycles
−Multiple patient reports of billing continuing after a cancellation attempt

TeleDirectMD

+One all-in $79 cash price per visit, published up front and HSA/FSA eligible
+Every visit is a live video consult with a named, board-certified physician, never a mid-level provider or a questionnaire-only review
+Fast access: visits typically start within 1–2 hours of booking, 7 days a week, and prescriptions go to the patient's own pharmacy
−A single physician handles all visits, which limits capacity and continuity of care
−No GLP-1, weight-loss or controlled-substance prescribing
−Not available in AR, MA, NM, NY, OR or RI
