Calibrate

Published Last verified 4 sources5 open gaps

Worth considering, for someone who wants one-to-one video coaching sitting alongside a prescription

Calibrate has not paid to appear here and there is no affiliate link on this page. Every fact below was read off joincalibrate.com, medcitynews.com on 7 October 2026. This is a buying guide, not medical advice, and it has not been clinically reviewed.

The membership is $199 per month with a required 3-month commitment, and it excludes both the medication and the lab tests, which the company works to get covered by insurance.

The full ledger

14 fields. Every one resolves to a value, a conditional answer, not offered, not disclosed, or not verified. None is left blank and none is filled from a third party unless the note says so.

Price per month
$199/month

Published openly. This buys the membership only. It does not buy the drug or the labs.

Longer term rate
Not offered

No annual rate is published; billing renews monthly after the initial 3-month term.

Minimum commitment
3 months

Stated as 'Initial 3-month commitment required', after which 'your membership will renew 1 month at a time'. That is roughly $597 before a member can leave.

Cancellation notice
Not disclosed

No notice period is published beyond the initial 3-month term.

Coach credential
Not disclosed

This is the field a reader should weigh most heavily here. Calibrate's own FAQ states its accountability coaches 'come from a number of different backgrounds, including public health, psychology, education, and nutrition', and that the only certification every coach must hold is its own: 'all coaches complete a rigorous training program in order to receive a Calibrate Coaching Certification'. No external certification or licence is named as a requirement. An in-house certificate is not a regulated credential.

Assigned human
Yes, one-to-one video coaching

Described as '1:1 personalized video coaching'. Whether the coach is a fixed named individual across the program is not stated.

Contact cadence
Not disclosed

The pricing page confirms one-to-one video coaching is included but does not publish how often those sessions occur.

Contact channel
One-to-one video coaching sessions
Prescribes medication
Yes: GLP-1 medications, named on site as Wegovy, Ozempic, Mounjaro, Foundayo and Zepbound. Cost is NOT included in the $199 membership

The company states that 'GLP-1s for most members with commercial insurance should be $25/month or less, after any deductible is met', which is a claim conditional on insurance and on the deductible already being met. Nothing here should be read as a recommendation of any drug or dose.

Requires lab work
Yes, and lab costs are not included

Stated as 'Lab tests and prescription medications are not included in the membership cost, but we'll work with your commercial/employer insurance to get them covered.'

Bills insurance
No for the program fee, yes for navigation of drugs and labs

Stated plainly: 'The cost of the Calibrate program is not covered by insurance, however it is HSA/FSA eligible.' The company provides 'full-service insurance navigation' for the medication and lab costs, which sit outside the membership.

Published outcome data
Self-reported: the company publishes a 2026 Results Report

The site states 'On average, our members lose 20% of their body weight achieved over three years'. This is company-published internal data, not a peer-reviewed study, and the linked report page could not be opened on 28 August 2026 to check the sample size or method. Treat the figure as a marketing claim until the underlying report is read.

Founded
2020

Reported founding year, sourced from press reporting.

Ownership
Madryn Asset Management, a private equity firm

Sourced from trade press covering a 2023 restructuring in which the firm assumed control after the company raised more than $160M and cut roughly 250 staff across two rounds of layoffs. Whether ownership has changed since 2023 was not verified.

What these facts mean

The sourced ledger above records what is published. This section is the directory's interpretation of which facts are load-bearing for a decision.

What the credential means

The current pages establish access to a licensed clinician, but they do not establish that an assigned nutrition coach is included or name a coach credential. Do not treat clinician access and ongoing coaching as the same product.

What the review platforms say

This is a third-party figure, read off the platform on the date shown and reported as a fact about that platform. It is not a score this guide worked out, and it cannot be lined up against the other entries. Why these numbers do not compare.

4.5 / 51,201 reviews on Trustpilotchecked

Whether the company invites reviews could not be established from the profile.

Profile claimed in October 2022. Trustpilot labels it 'No recent history of asking for reviews' and warns that 'This company hasn't invited customers recently, so reviews may not be representative.' That wording covers current behavior only, and it does not rule out an invitation program earlier in the company's life, which is why solicitation is recorded as unknown rather than false. Read the date range alongside the score: Calibrate went through a private equity restructuring and heavy layoffs in 2023, so a 1,201 review average may be describing a company that no longer operates the way it did when most of those reviews were written.

How to read this score

The platform does not establish how this sample was gathered. Without that context, the number is descriptive of the profile, not evidence that a typical customer gets the same result.

A review signal worth checking

A recent one-star reviewer said mandatory biweekly sessions used different coaches, limiting continuity, and said clinical communication occurred only through app messages.

One attributed review, not a representative sample. Included because coach continuity and access to the clinical team are practical details the official pages do not disclose.

Read the source from 3 August 2026

The verdict

Suits someone who wants scheduled one-to-one video coaching alongside a prescription and has commercial insurance to run drugs and labs through, and does not suit a reader who wants a credentialed nutrition professional, because Calibrate names only its own in-house coaching certificate.

Flaws but not dealbreakers

The $199 headline covers neither the medication nor the labs, so the real monthly outlay depends on a commercial insurance plan the reader has to hope cooperates, and the '$25/month or less' drug figure only applies after a deductible is met. The coaching credential is an in-house certificate rather than any licensed qualification, which is a meaningful gap for a service selling coaching as half the product.

What was sourced

Every cell in the ledger above marked as a value or as conditional was read off one of the 4 pages listed under sources, on . This confirms that the company published the claim; it does not independently prove the claim true. Nothing was taken from a review aggregator, a coupon site or a third-party blog, with one exception that is stated in the note on each affected field.

Nobody enrolled in Calibrate, paid it, or spoke to it. What is below is what the company is willing to put in writing on its own site, which is a narrower claim than whether the service works.

What was not verified

5 things could not be confirmed. They are listed here rather than filled with a plausible value. If you have first-hand information on any of them, the corrections address is in the footer.

Change history

We keep this profile under review. When a verified price, care model, ownership, availability, operating-status, rating, or review-signal fact changes materially, the dated amendment appears here instead of silently replacing the old record.

Monitoring active. Official information for Calibrate was last checked on 7 October 2026.

Minor
Added a one-review signal about different coaches across mandatory biweekly sessions and clinical communication limited to app messages. It is presented as one review because the platform does not identify it as a recurring pattern.Calibrate Trustpilot reviews
Minor
Added the Trustpilot snapshot: 4.5 out of 5 from 1,201 reviews. The platform and collection context travel with the figure; this is not a directory score.Trustpilot profile
Minor
Calibrate's published outcome data was recorded as conditional rather than as a value. The company's Results Report page could not be opened on 28 August 2026, so the sample size and method behind its three-year figure are unchecked.
