We Turned Our GLP-1 Price Checks Into a Public Dataset and Live MCP Feed

Comparing GLP-1 programs takes more digging than it should. A provider may advertise one monthly figure, then handle consultation fees, membership fees, dose changes, and billing periods somewhere else in the signup flow. GLP-1 Buyer Guide was built to slow that process down and record the details in one place. We have now ranked 22 programs and built a dataset of 50 priced plans from 21…

The GLP-1 Buyer Guide has transformed its GLP-1 price comparisons into a publicly accessible dataset and live MCP (Message Control Protocol) feed. This allows developers and AI assistants to easily access up-to-date pricing information for GLP-1 medications. The dataset includes 22 ranked programs, with 50 priced plans from 21 providers covering semaglutide and tirzepatide.

Each price was verified against the provider's published pages, and the records include the source page and date of the check, ensuring the information stays current. Rankings are based on a score system that considers factors such as the monthly price, additional fees, dose pricing, commitment terms, cancellation policies, and how clearly the terms are published.

The top-ranked provider is Surfbound Health, followed by Stahl Primary Care, Elevated Health, DirectMeds, and Peak Wellness. The live MCP feed is designed to be queried using three tools: find_glp1_prices, find_provider_glp1_prices, and list_glp1_medications. It provides direct access to ranked standard month-to-month injectable prices by medication, priced plans for a specific provider, and a list of all covered medications.

The feed is free to use and is operated by Open Water Rx LLC. The prices and terms are meant for informational purposes only and should not be considered medical advice. For the most accurate information, the provider's published pages should be referenced. The feed data was last checked on November 13, 2026, with the public dataset built from checks between October 15 and November 2, 2026.
