Quick verdict

Ro Body is the better pick for most patients on overall scoring. Ro is the program for patients who want the cleanest interface and don't care about compounded options. They exited compounded in 2025 and now route exclusively through Lilly and Novo branded fulfillment.

That said, Calibrate wins on specific dimensions. Calibrate is a coaching and insurance-navigation program whose value proposition has weakened as direct-to-consumer pricing from Lilly and Novo undercut the 'we'll handle insurance for you' pitch. Cut its fee from $299 to $199 in 2026.
