Mochi Health pairs video visits with board-certified obesity medicine providers and compounded GLP-1s through its pharmacy marketplace for a $79 monthly membership (standard rate as of October 2026) plus medication. FutureClinic connects you with an expert doctor by message per visit, with no subscription required.

On FutureClinic, a specific doctor reads your whole case and answers you one to one. Your care plan comes with a Human Signature: a short video or voice note your doctor records live for you. No form gets approved in bulk. You can message the same doctor time after time, in the same chat, however long in between. In weight management, staying with the same doctor over months lets you build trust, try treatments together, and track progress: your doctor can adjust a dose if side effects appear, compare this month's metabolic lab results against last year's, or decide with you when to step up or step down.

That same doctor is never restricted to weight loss alone. They can help with other problems in their specialty, so an internal medicine doctor managing your weight can also treat your blood pressure, cholesterol, or thyroid, and every FutureClinic doctor you see works from one medical record.

How do Mochi Health and FutureClinic compare?

Who treats you, and what else can they help with?

Mochi Health covers 120+ conditions, including weight, skin, hair, menopause, mental health, and erectile dysfunction (tadalafil from $30 for 10 mg as of October 2026). Its FAQs and pricing page describe clinicians as "board certified obesity medicine providers" and "licensed physicians and clinicians" who meet patients by video (first visit within a week) and messaging, and patients can pick or switch providers.

FutureClinic has over 300 doctors licensed in the US. They span more than 60 specialties, including generalists and specialists. Because we believe people's health deserves expert-level care, every doctor is a state-licensed, background-checked physician with an MD, DO or MBBS degree, never a nurse practitioner or physician assistant. A dermatologist treating hair loss can also treat acne or eczema, and every specialist you see works from your one medical record.

We believe AI is a tool for doctors, with the human doctor in charge of every case. Most health problems have nuance and need one-to-one attention from an expert who can tell when an AI makes a mistake or heads toward the wrong answer. FutureClinic's AI works behind the scenes like a chief resident: it asks the intake questions your doctor trained it to ask, gathers your history and photos, and prepares a summary you confirm before the doctor sees it, and it never gives medical advice by itself.

How do the costs compare over a year?

Mochi's model assumes you stay subscribed to keep getting medicine. As of October 2026, Mochi's membership is $79 per month ($948/year), or $207 for three months, $354 for six months, and $588 for 12 months ("Covered With Mochi" insurance plans are $119 for six months or $199 for 12 months). Medicine is billed by dose and all prescription sales are final: compounded semaglutide starts at $60/month and tirzepatide at $90/month, while brand drugs start at $149 for Foundayo, $199 for Wegovy, $299 for Zepbound, and $499 for Mounjaro.

On FutureClinic, there is no subscription needed, and you never have to stay subscribed to keep your medicine. Pay $40 for the best-fit doctor, or pick a doctor at their listed price, typically $20 to $100. Because your doctor sells no medicine and earns nothing extra for any prescription or test, their only incentive is to help you, and they never upsell a medicine or lab panel. If your doctor decides it's right for you, they can prescribe whichever medicine fits you, any brand or generic, with no house formulary, to the pharmacy you choose with a cash discount coupon. You can also use insurance at the pharmacy, and FutureClinic helps get a prior authorization when insurance needs one. Any licensed doctor can also prescribe brand GLP-1s at maker cash prices (as of October 2026):

• Wegovy (NovoCare): The Wegovy pill is $149/month at 1.5 mg ($199 at 4 mg; $299 at 9 and 25 mg) versus a $1,349.02 list price, for home delivery or local pickup. Wegovy pens are $199/month for a new patient's first two fills (0.25 and 0.5 mg, through December 31, 2026), then $349.
• Lilly (LillyDirect): Zepbound KwikPen or vials start at $299/month at 2.5 mg (the KwikPen is $399 at 5 mg and $449 at 7.5 to 15 mg if refilled within 45 days), and Foundayo pills start at $149/month.
• Insurance and Medicare: A Wegovy savings card lowers eligible commercial copays to as little as $25/month, and the Medicare GLP-1 Bridge lets eligible Medicare Part D members pay $50/month for Wegovy, Zepbound KwikPen (not vials) and Foundayo (July 1, 2026 to December 31, 2027).

At the same medicine price, Mochi's fee adds $948 a year on the monthly plan ($588 prepaid). On FutureClinic, a doctor can prescribe several months of a stable medicine at once when they judge it safe, so a year may take a few $40 visits. At NovoCare the Wegovy pill is $149 to $299 a month by dose; Mochi lists Wegovy from $199. Most FutureClinic doctors also offer an optional membership (typically $25 to $100/month) for unlimited care with that doctor, cancel any time. FutureClinic doctors do not prescribe controlled medicines like phentermine.
