*Includes direct laboratory measurements and calculated health metrics. Lifeforce's count is the biomarker list it publishes for one draw, rerun at each later draw except Lp(a). Rythm's count is its own homepage figure for one monthly panel, which differs slightly by sex. Comparison based on publicly available information as of October 30, 2026.

Key takeaway:

Lifeforce ($599/yr) pairs a phlebotomist draw of 50+ biomarkers with a booked 45-minute clinician consult. Rythm ($79/mo) is a monthly at-home blood test: you collect a capillary sample yourself, and results arrive within 2 days of it reaching the lab. If you want results to lead somewhere inside the same membership, Superpower ($199/yr) goes beyond biomarker testing to be a true home for health. A 100+ biomarker draw connects to wearable integration, add-on tests and scans, and a member marketplace for supplements, with compounded prescriptions (like peptides) available when clinically appropriate, priced separately.

What is Lifeforce, and what is Rythm?

Lifeforce pairs blood testing with clinician-led care. You give blood two or four times a year, spend 45 minutes with a clinician going over the results, and leave with a health plan that can include medications.

Rythm leads with "The World's Easiest Blood Test." A kit arrives each month, you collect the sample at home, and results appear in an app.

The two answer one question differently: how often should you look at your blood, and who helps you read it? Lifeforce spaces its draws out and puts a clinician behind them. Rythm shortens the interval to a month and puts an AI Coach behind it.

What does Lifeforce include?

Lifeforce includes scheduled draws, clinician consults, a written health plan, and access to prescription medications, with the number of draws and consults set by the plan.

Its four-step process runs like this:

  1. Schedule your blood draw — Pick a time, and a phlebotomist takes your blood at home or at a lab.
  2. Meet 1:1 with your clinician — You complete a health questionnaire, then go over results and goals on a video call.
  3. Get your custom plan — A health coach stays alongside you while the program runs.
  4. Retest and refine — Repeat draws every 3 to 6 months measure progress and tune the plan.

Medications and hormone therapy are priced item by item, and members get 30% off supplements. Results land within 10-14 business days of the test date.

What does Rythm include?

Each Rythm month brings a kit, an app that explains every biomarker it reports, an AI Coach with no usage limit, and a Rythm Score.

Rythm describes a three-step process:

  1. At-home test — Each month's kit lets you collect a capillary sample using Tasso+, a device Rythm calls FDA-cleared.
  2. Send — Post the sample back, or have FedEx collect it from your door at no charge.
  3. Results within 2 days — Rythm's own CLIA-certified, CAP-accredited lab runs the panel.

The app also issues a Rythm Score after your first test, and a biological age after your second. Billing recurs every 30 days, and a skipped month, up to 90 days in all, costs nothing.

What biomarkers do Lifeforce and Rythm measure in 2026?

Lifeforce advertises 50+ biomarkers per draw, and Rythm advertises 25+ per monthly kit.

Rythm's biomarkers page lists 30 markers by name, and counting that list gives 28 markers on a female panel and 27 on a male one. Lifeforce's help center list runs to 60. Neither list includes urinalysis.

LifeforceRythm
Initial draw60 biomarkers (54 distinct and 6 calculated)27-28 biomarkers (21-22 distinct and 6 calculated)
Follow-up drawSame panel retested except Lp(a), 2 or 4 draws a yearSame panel monthly on the default kit schedule
Headline count50+ biomarkers per draw25+ biomarkers per kit

Rythm sells one panel per sex rather than a catalog, because a single collection limits how many biomarkers it can test.

Lifeforce lists add-on panels beyond the base list:

  • Blood panels — Heavy Metals, Metabolic Health, and Cardiovascular Health at $200 each.
  • Brain Protection — $850 initially, $700 for a follow-up.

What are the official 2026 membership prices for Lifeforce and Rythm?

Core Annual at Lifeforce runs $599. The Monthly plan charges $199 up front and $149 monthly afterward. Rythm charges $79 per monthly test, with shipping and tax added.

Across a year, twelve kits add up to $948, which is more than Lifeforce's Core Annual price, though Rythm's year holds twelve draws against two. Lifeforce's Monthly plan adds up to $1,838 in its first year.

Rythm's first-test discount changes by page and over time, so read any figure you see as a dated offer rather than the going rate. Both memberships are HSA/FSA eligible, and Lifeforce asks for a Letter of Medical Necessity through Truemed.

How do the collection methods and cadences differ?

Lifeforce schedules a phlebotomist or lab visit two to four times a year, while Rythm has you collect a capillary sample every month.

Lifeforce members can choose a walk-in lab or an at-home visit, apart from New York, New Jersey, and Rhode Island, where draws happen in the home only. A trained professional handles the collection each time.

Rythm hands you the device. The FDA-cleared Tasso+ collector fills the same Microtainer tubes used throughout traditional healthcare, and the sample goes to Rythm's own lab. Nobody travels, and nobody visits your home either.

Rythm gives you twelve readings a year and Lifeforce two or four, so cadence favors Rythm if trend lines matter to you.

How fast do results arrive?

Rythm has results ready within 2 days once its lab receives the sample, while Lifeforce quotes 10-14 business days from the test date.

Rythm's clock starts at the lab, not at collection: kits ship within 1 business day and the return goes by overnight FedEx. Rythm tests a much smaller set of biomarkers, which helps explain its speed.

Lifeforce's wait includes a clinician step. Once the lab report lands, a clinician's first look appears in the portal inside 48 hours, and the plan itself posts a day or two after the consult.

Who helps you act on the results?

Lifeforce gives you a clinician, a coach on the Monthly plan, and prescriptions. Rythm gives you an AI Coach and points you to your own doctor.

Every Rythm result is signed off by a state-licensed physician before release, a step tied to lab requirements. On prescriptions, Rythm states that it does not prescribe, and it points members with concerns to their primary care provider. Its supplement and dietary suggestions are informational only.

Lifeforce's clinician writes your plan after a 45-minute consult, and between visits a medical operations team answers questions within 1-2 business days. Supplements come at a 30% member discount. Prescription medications appear in a members-only pharmaceuticals collection, each priced on its own and available only after blood test results and a clinician video consult.

Book your test

Who is Lifeforce best for, and who is Rythm best for?

Lifeforce is best for:

  • People who want a clinician to go through results with them on a booked call.
  • People who want hormone therapy or other medications alongside testing.
  • People who prefer a professional to collect the sample.

Rythm is best for:

  • People who want a result every month instead of every few months.
  • People who want results within 2 days and never leave the house.
  • People who like paying monthly and pausing without a fee.

The bottom line

Lifeforce suits people who want a clinician in the loop and a longer, slower rhythm of testing. Rythm suits people who want the quickest feedback loop on a short list of markers, collected at their own kitchen table.

The two stop short in different places. Lifeforce's add-on testing runs to four panels, and Rythm sells one panel per sex and does not prescribe.

Superpower costs $199 a year in most states, less than both Lifeforce's $599 and the $948 that twelve Rythm kits add up to. Its one draw covers 100+ biomarkers, against the 50+ Lifeforce headlines per draw and the 25+ in a Rythm kit. A single Superpower AI combines your labs, devices, and records into a Superpower Protocol, then answers questions once your results post. Members get supplements at up to 20% off and add-on tests and scans in the marketplace, with prescriptions available when clinically appropriate, priced separately. 93% of members found their action plan more useful, even life-changing, than a yearly checkup.

Blood work is where a health plan starts, not where it ends. Build your home for health with Superpower today.
