Methodology

How WeightWise evaluates programs.

Our framework is designed to make commercial wellness programs easier to compare without pretending there is one universally best option.

Core criteria

CriterionWhat we look atWhy it matters
StructureClarity of weekly actions, routines, and progressionA program only helps if users can understand what to do next.
Nutrition toolsMeal guidance, food logging, education, planningDifferent users prefer different levels of structure and flexibility.
Fitness supportActivity guidance, practicality, equipment assumptionsA plan should fit the user's actual environment and routine.
AccountabilityTracking, reminders, communities, coaching where offeredSupport can affect how easy it is to stay consistent.
CostCurrent plan price, billing cadence, renewal, included featuresHeadline pricing can hide meaningful differences in value.
FlexibilityCancellation, plan duration, access modelConsumers should understand the commitment before paying.

Commercial relationships

Compensation may influence which programs we feature or where they appear. It should not be interpreted as proof that a program is best for every user. See our Advertising Disclosure.

Updates

Program features and prices can change. We aim to distinguish general program descriptions from time-sensitive commercial details and encourage users to confirm current terms before purchasing.
