Noom Med comes out ahead overall (6.9 vs 5.8). Noom Med starts at $249/mo, 9amHealth at $448/mo.
Quick verdict
Noom Med is the better pick for most patients on overall scoring. Noom built the behavioral app most people loved. It now sells a medication tier, and a microdose protocol no other big program runs. Watch the two bills.
9amHealth wins on how clear the price is. At 9amHealth a GLP-1 is one tool inside a wider heart and metabolic program. Labs are in the price, and the drug is branded first. Its ties to employers and health plans are strong. It fits patients with other conditions better than it fits pure weight-loss buyers.

When to choose Noom Med
Best for behavioral coaching plus meds
People who want CBT-style coaching with their medicine, or who want a microdosed GLP-1.
Noom Med wins on price, how easy it is to cancel, how fast you start and what members say and runs $400/mo cheaper than 9amHealth at the entry tier ($249 vs $649). Over a year that's $4,800 you keep. Not for: people who want the drug and nothing else.
When to choose 9amHealth
Best for diabetes and cardio risk
People with diabetes, pre-diabetes or heart risk who want a GLP-1 inside full metabolic care.
9amHealth wins on how clear the price is. Not for: people with no other condition who just want the lowest GLP-1 price.
If cost is your main filter
Noom Med is the cheaper monthly: $249 all-in vs $649 for 9amHealth. That's $400 a month or $4,800a year. The 12-month math matters most if you're planning to maintain on GLP-1 long-term. If you're running a 3-month trial, the $1200 delta is small against the cost of stopping early on the wrong dose. If your plan covers Wegovy or Zepbound, insurance can beat both cash prices. First the program has to file a prior authorization, which is your doctor asking the plan to approve the drug.
If lock-in is your main filter
Noom Med (month-to-month) and 9amHealth (month-to-month) score 9 and 8 on cancellation. Both sit in the same lock-in band. Each program page carries its cancellation terms.
