Eden vs TMates
Eden: Eden attaches a $99/month membership to tiered medication pricing; all-in figures land at $198 semaglutide and $408 tirzepatide at maintenance. TMates: TMates is a compounded GLP-1 telehealth service that includes medication and visits in one bundled monthly price. It offers both semaglutide and tirzepatide, with a 12-month plan that brings tirzepatide to $167/mo — the lowest committed-plan figure for tirz outside of bmiMD and NexLife.

The arithmetic
On the figures our desk holds, TMates's $297 a month undercuts Eden's $408 by $111 a month at the 10 mg/wk maintenance basis — $1,332 across a year. TMates's figure is reported (captured 2026-07-14) and Eden's is provider-stated (captured 2026-08-05); a status below 'verified' means our independent checkout capture is still pending, so treat the gap as the best current evidence rather than settled fact.
Eden's tirzepatide ladder runs $408 a month billed monthly. TMates's runs $297 a month billed monthly, and $167 a month on a twelve-month plan. On the twelve-month basis TMates's $2,004 beats Eden's $4,896 by $2,892 — with the winner's figure resting on a committed twelve-month plan, a structural difference that matters if you might stop early.

What our desk is watching on each
Eden: Membership plus dose tiering makes Eden's advertised numbers diverge sharply from all-in cost. Open conflict on record: a third-party read of Eden's live treatment page dated July 9, 2026 computed $298/mo all-in tirzepatide ($199 medication + $99 membership) under a new 'Same Price at Every Dose' structure, while our August 5 capture recorded $408 all-in — Eden ran at least three distinct rate structures between April and July 2026, so both figures may have been true on their dates. Flagged for priority re-capture; the later first-party capture stands until then.
TMates: The $158/mo (sema) and $167/mo (tirz) headline figures are 12-month plan rates; month-to-month is $249 (sema) and $297 (tirz) — some of the widest start-to-commitment spreads in the index. Reported status from RangeYourself 2026-07-14 verification.
Questions people ask
Is Eden or TMates cheaper in 2026?
The tirzepatide and semaglutide verdict blocks above give the computed answer at the maintenance basis, with the verification status of each figure; the short version is that whichever program's all-in monthly number is lower on this page is cheaper on the evidence we hold today, and both rows carry capture dates so you can judge freshness.
What does Eden vs TMates miss that checkout will show?
Taxes, state availability, current promotions, and any dose surcharge introduced after our capture date. Screenshot the order summary before paying — that capture, not any comparison page, is your contract.
Why do you compare at the maintenance dose instead of the starting dose?
Because starter pricing lasts one or two months and maintenance pricing lasts the rest of the year; comparing starts against maintenances is the single most common way GLP-1 comparisons mislead.
What do Eden and TMates cost over a full year of tirzepatide?
On the plans our database holds, a year of tirzepatide runs $4,896 at Eden and $2,004 at TMates — computed from each program's best published twelve-month route, with promotional figures labeled in the sections above and every number carrying its capture date.
