FitScript vs Hone Health

Updated October 20, 2026. By FitScript Editorial.

Hone Health and FitScript both start from a blood test, but they are built for different jobs. Hone Health is a clinical membership: labs on a schedule, video visits with physicians who specialise in hormone health, metabolism and longevity, and prescription treatment when a physician decides it fits. FitScript centres on reading the labs you already have against optimal ranges with Atlas, its AI, and sells lab panels one body system at a time, with provider access in its Peak plan. This page sets their published facts side by side, each one linked to where it came from.

FitScript publishes this comparison and is one of the services compared. Competitor facts come from each company's own website as of October 20, 2026. Prices and features change, so check their current terms before you decide.

What is the main difference between FitScript and Hone Health?

The main difference is what sits at the centre. Hone Health is built around a physician relationship: you test, meet a board-certified physician by private video, and, on its Premium plan, retest and meet your clinician again every three months. Its site lists treatment and monitoring areas such as low testosterone, perimenopause and menopause, thyroid imbalance, weight loss, longevity and sexual health, with medication priced on top of the membership.

FitScript is built around the data. Its Protocol membership reads the labs you already have against optimal ranges with Atlas, and you add lab panels one body system at a time when you want new testing. A licensed clinician route exists in FitScript's Peak plan through provider access, but the everyday product is the analysis and the plan that comes from it.

What does each membership include, and what does it cost?

Hone Health lists two memberships. Its how-it-works page shows Premium at $155 a month plus the cost of medication, with an initial test of $65, and Basic at $25 a month, with an initial test of $25 plus an onboarding fee. Its home page describes getting started at $65 for advanced lab testing of 50+ biomarkers, a telehealth consult with a licensed physician and a personalised plan, while the same how-it-works page notes that Basic members book a 30-minute physician consultation for a nominal fee, so what the first payment includes depends on the plan you choose.

Its help center describes both as annual clinical programmes billed monthly: Men's Premium totals $1,860 a year and Basic $300 a year, excluding medication, each charged as one twelfth of the annual fee per month. Medication is priced separately, with its testosterone page listing testosterone from $28 a month on top of the membership.

FitScript prices the reading layer and the testing separately. Protocol is $20 per month including a 7-day trial, with cancel anytime, and covers Atlas, the FitScore on labs you already have and a full daily protocol. Peak is $99 per month or $999 per year and adds provider access and two group coaching calls a week. Lab panels are sold on their own, from $49 up to $499 for FitScript Complete, and each panel page lists the panel as HSA/FSA eligible.

How does lab testing compare?

Hone Health states that it tests 50+ biomarkers across core health systems including cardiovascular, metabolic, hormones and thyroid. Its help center lists the Men's Premium panel as a thyroid panel, a sex hormone panel including PSA, a complete blood count, a lipid panel including ApoB, and a comprehensive metabolic panel. Premium members retest every three months and Basic members every six, and members can add DEXA scans, MRIs and extra lab panels.

Testing on a fixed rhythm is the point of Hone Health's model, since the physician reviews each new set of results alongside the last. That cadence suits people who are adjusting a treatment and want regular checks built in.

FitScript sells panels by body system rather than one fixed bundle. FitScript Essential, with 40+ biomarkers, is $149. FitScript Complete, with 70+, is $499. A Hormone Panel is $229, Thyroid Complete is $149, Metabolic + Insulin is $99, Cardiovascular Deep is $129 and Heavy Metals is $179, with single tests such as Vitamin D at $49. Add-on panels are drawn from the same sample as a core panel, so going deeper on one system needs no second visit.

Where do you get tested?

Hone Health offers a choice of 2,000+ Quest Diagnostics locations, and its home page states that testing can be completed at home or at a lab. Its help center explains that at-home kits are available only for men, with women completing testing at a lab location, and that an in-home or on-site draw is available through a GetLabs mobile phlebotomist, free for initial labs on some programmes, with members paying for GetLabs on follow-up labs.

FitScript emails a digital lab requisition when you order, which its panel pages describe as valid at 3,000+ Quest and Labcorp locations nationwide. You can walk in to a nearby lab, with no appointment needed, or choose at-home phlebotomy in select areas. Preparation is listed per panel. FitScript Essential, for example, asks for a 12-hour fast with water only.

How fast do results arrive, and what do you see?

Hone Health's help center states that lab panels typically return results about 10 business days after the blood draw, with physician review within one to two business days after results arrive, and that at-home panels usually take about four business days after the lab receives the sample. Results appear on a dashboard in a secure patient portal, where they can be downloaded and shared. Its help center notes that the Hone app is its mobile-friendly website rather than an App Store or Google Play download.

FitScript shows turnaround on each panel page, from 3 to 5 business days for panels such as Thyroid Complete and FitScript Essential up to 7 to 10 business days for Heavy Metals. Results land in the Atlas dashboard, where every marker is read against optimal ranges as well as the lab's standard range. They feed a FitScore, a Bio Age and a Living Health Map that groups markers by body system, and then a daily protocol built around them.

For labs you upload, the wait is shorter still. FitScript states that Atlas has a read in under a minute, whether the file is a PDF, a photo taken on a phone or a hospital export.

How do clinician access and guidance compare?

Hone Health's consult is a private one-to-one video appointment with board-certified physicians who specialise in hormone health, metabolism and longevity. Premium members meet their clinician with each three-month retest and have unlimited messaging with their care team. Its testosterone page lists testosterone therapy as injections, cream or dissolvable troches, and its home page lists prescription hair-loss treatments. Its terms state that clinical services are provided by Broad Health, an independent physician-owned medical group, through the Hone platform.

FitScript's AI is called Atlas. It analyses labs against optimal ranges, syncs wearable data, tracks the FitScore over time and builds a protocol of supplements, nutrition and training, with AI chat for follow-up questions. When prescription treatment may fit, FitScript describes licensed physicians who review each case, with provider messaging over HIPAA-compliant channels, and the provider decides whether anything is prescribed. provider access and group coaching sit in the Peak plan.

So the difference is one of emphasis. Hone Health puts a recurring physician visit at the centre of every Premium month. FitScript puts an AI reading of your labs at the centre, with a licensed clinician route in Peak for people who want one.

Can you bring labs from elsewhere?

Hone Health accepts outside labs for the initial evaluation when they were completed within the last 90 days and all its required biomarkers are present, and its help center notes that the initial lab test is still purchased through Hone Health.

Upload is the centre of FitScript rather than an extra. Its upload page lists PDF reports from Quest, Labcorp, Function, Lifeforce, Superpower and hospital systems, as well as phone photos of paper printouts, and states that Atlas has a read in under a minute. Wearable syncing covers Oura and WHOOP.

If most of your data already exists, from annual physicals, a past testing membership or a wearable you use every day, the upload path matters more than the test menu. If you have no recent labs at all, the test menu matters more.

What about insurance, HSA and FSA, and cancelling?

Hone Health is a cash-pay service. Its help center states that it works outside insurance and prior authorisations, and its how-it-works page notes there are no deductibles or co-pays. Its how-it-works page lists it as HSA/FSA eligible, noting that eligibility depends on your plan and that it provides a receipt for submission.

Membership is month to month and can be cancelled anytime through its cancellation form, with no refunds or credits for partial months, and members can pause for up to three months instead. Its help center adds that if a physician decides treatment is not appropriate after the initial consultation on Men's Premium, the initial $155 membership fee is refunded. Services are offered in select US states, with a published list for each plan.

FitScript lists each lab panel as HSA/FSA eligible on its panel page, and Protocol can be cancelled anytime. Check with your plan administrator before relying on HSA or FSA payment for either.

What does Hone Health do well?

Hone Health builds follow-up into the product. Premium pairs every retest with a clinician visit every three months and keeps a care team a message away, which is exactly the structure people managing a treatment tend to want. Its Premium panel covers the core hormone, thyroid, lipid and metabolic markers that ongoing care depends on.

It is also clear about cost. Its help center breaks each membership into a yearly total and a monthly charge, lists medication separately, and lets members pause rather than cancel when life gets in the way.

Sources [8] [19] [13]

What does FitScript do differently?

FitScript starts with the labs a person already has. Protocol at $20 per month, including a 7-day trial, adds Atlas, the Health Score and personalised recommendations on top of uploaded labs from almost any provider, with no requirement that the first test is bought through FitScript.

When you want new testing, you choose a panel by body system, from $49 for a single test to $499 for FitScript Complete with 70+ biomarkers, drawn at one of 3,000+ Quest and Labcorp locations or at home in select areas. Results are read against optimal ranges as well as the standard range, and Peak adds provider access for people who want a licensed clinician involved.

Sources [1] [2] [3] [5]

How do the costs compare over a year?

Hone Health's help center lists Men's Premium at $1,860 a year and Basic at $300 a year, both excluding medication, so anyone on treatment should add the medication price, for example testosterone from $28 a month on its testosterone page. On FitScript, twelve months of Protocol is $240 before any lab panels, single panels run from $49 to $499, and Peak is $99 per month or $999 per year.

The totals answer different questions. Hone Health's Premium price buys four rounds of labs and physician visits a year. FitScript's lower tiers buy analysis of the labs you have, with testing added as you need it. Prices change, so check each company's current pricing before you decide.

Who is each one best for?

Hone Health is a good fit for someone who already expects to work with a physician on hormones, metabolism or weight, wants labs and a clinician visit on a fixed three-month rhythm, and is comfortable paying a monthly membership with medication on top.

FitScript is a good fit for someone who already has bloodwork, from a doctor, an insurer-covered physical or another testing service, and wants it read against optimal ranges by an AI they can question. It also suits people who want to test one system at a time, such as thyroid or heart health, and pay for that panel alone, or who want provider access and group coaching inside the Peak plan.

Some people use both. Lab reports from any provider, Hone Health included, can be uploaded to FitScript and read against optimal ranges.

Sources [8] [7] [1] [2]

What should you check before choosing a lab membership?

Start with the tests you actually want. A large biomarker count is useful when it covers the systems you care about, such as thyroid, hormones, heart, liver and kidney health. Read each provider's published list and look for the specific markers you have been told to watch, for example ApoB, fasting insulin or free T3, rather than comparing totals alone.

Next, think about how often you will retest. Seeing a number move after three or six months is often more useful than a single snapshot, so include the cost of a second draw in any yearly total. Check where you can be drawn, how long results take and whether a clinician reviews anything outside the standard range.

Finally, look at what happens after the results arrive. Some people want a clear written plan, some want to ask questions about their own numbers, and some want a licensed provider involved. Membership terms, renewal pricing and HSA or FSA eligibility are worth reading closely too, since they change over time.

Which one should you choose?

Choose based on what you need most. If you want a physician-led programme with regular labs and visits built in, Hone Health is designed for that. If you want your existing labs read against optimal ranges by an AI you can question, with panels added one system at a time and a clinician route when you want one, FitScript is designed for that.

Whatever you choose, a licensed clinician is the right person to interpret results that fall outside the standard range and to decide on any treatment.

Common questions

Is FitScript cheaper than Hone Health?

It depends on what you need. Hone Health lists Premium at $155 a month plus medication and Basic at $25 a month, which its help center totals at $1,860 and $300 a year. FitScript Protocol is $20 per month including a 7-day trial, with lab panels priced separately from $49. Check both companies' current pricing, since prices change.

Does Hone Health accept insurance?

No. Hone Health is cash-pay: its help center states that it works outside insurance and prior authorisations. It lists itself as HSA/FSA eligible depending on your plan and provides a receipt for submission.

How often does Hone Health retest?

Hone Health retests every three months on Premium, with a clinician visit each time, and every six months on Basic.

Can I use labs I already have?

Hone Health accepts outside labs from the last 90 days for the initial evaluation if all required biomarkers are present, with the initial lab test still purchased through Hone Health. FitScript reads uploaded PDF reports and photos from any provider.

Can women use Hone Health's at-home test?

Hone Health's help center states that at-home lab kits are available only for men, and that women complete testing at a lab location.

How long do results take?

Hone Health lists about 10 business days after the draw for lab panels and about 4 business days after the lab receives an at-home sample. FitScript lists 3 to 5 business days for FitScript Essential, up to 7 to 10 for Heavy Metals.

Can I cancel Hone Health anytime?

Hone Health describes its membership as month to month and cancellable anytime, with no refunds for partial months and the option to pause for up to three months. Its Basic membership help page also notes that fees paid are not refundable.

What are Atlas and the FitScore?

Atlas is FitScript's AI. It reads every marker against optimal ranges as well as the standard range, builds a daily protocol and answers follow-up questions about your own results. The FitScore is one score built from your results, tracked over time.

How often should you retest your labs?

Many people retest a panel after about three months to see whether changes in sleep, training or diet have moved the numbers, then every six to twelve months once results are steady. A clinician can suggest a schedule based on your own results.

Is this comparison independent?

No. FitScript publishes it and is one of the services compared. Every competitor fact links to that company's own site and shows the date we read it, so you can check anything that may have changed.
