Key takeaways

01“White-label telehealth” hides three different models, and the one you pick decides what you own in five years.
02Telegra and most platforms here publish little pricing. Model your volume before comparing quotes.
03Two questions separate vendors fastest: who renders the patient experience, and can you export your records via API.
04Already on Telegra? Switching is a refill-cadence problem, not a rip-and-replace. See the migration playbook.

The landscape

Three models hide behind “white-label telehealth”

Every platform supplies licensed clinicians, prescribing, pharmacy routing and state compliance. What differs is who owns the patient experience.

Hosted portal

The vendor runs the patient experience and puts your logo on it. Fastest to launch, but the funnel, the data model and the roadmap are theirs.

You own: the logo

Marketplace

You plug into a shared network alongside many other brands. Easy to start; harder to differentiate, and you compete for the same capacity.

You own: a listing

API infrastructure

You build the product; the vendor runs the clinical layer behind an API. More engineering up front, and you own the experience and the data.

You own: product, patients, data

The ranking

Strengths and trade-offs, platform by platform

Trade-offs follow from each platform's model, not from our opinion of its quality. We rank by one thing: how much of the patient experience you own.

How to choose

Pick by what you want to own

API infrastructure

You have engineers and a funnel you have optimized

Choose API infrastructure. Don’t hand your conversion rate to a vendor template; the patient experience is your compounding asset.

Hosted portal

You have no engineering team and need to validate demand this quarter

Choose a hosted portal or turnkey model, and negotiate API export rights in the contract so you can move later on your terms.

Enterprise network

You are an enterprise, payer or health system

The enterprise clinician networks are built around your procurement and integration reality.

Migration

You are already at volume on another platform

Compare against the fully loaded cost of what you have, then read the Telegra migration playbook. Done right, patients never notice the switch.

What is the best Telegra alternative?

It depends on what you want to own. If you want to control the patient experience and keep your funnel, an API-infrastructure platform like Lithos is the strongest Telegra alternative. If you want a hosted experience with minimal engineering, a turnkey white-label vendor fits better.

How much do white-label telehealth platforms cost?

Almost every vendor here quotes custom pricing: some mix of platform fees, per-visit fees or revenue share. Model your expected volume before comparing; the same structure prices very differently at 100 versus 1,000 patients a month. Lithos is free to start and charges per visit, with no setup or platform fee.

Do I need a medical license to launch a telehealth brand?

No. The platform operates the clinical entities and clinician network; you operate the brand. You still need the right corporate structure, which reputable platforms set up with you.

Which platforms support GLP-1 weight-loss programs?

Most platforms here, including Lithos, support GLP-1 weight management. Ask each vendor about pharmacy supply, compounding posture and prior-authorization support.

Who owns the patient records?

Contractually it varies, and it is the question that matters most in year three. Get API export rights in writing from day one, whichever platform you choose. On Lithos, your data is exportable via API at any time.
