About Us
Fin vs Fin is focused on the ever evolving ecosystem of direct-to-consumer wellness. We help consumers compare modern brands that promise to keep you healthy, happy, and thriving.
Curious if the D2C brands you see on Instagram and subway station ads actually work? You know… keep you eating well? Exercising regularly? Looking young, and feeling centered?
As venture capital continues to pour into consumer wellness startups, it’s challenging to keep up with all the innovation and figure out which are worth trying. We invest hours researching every product we compare and consult our advisory board of experts — licensed physicians, dentists, therapists, and more — to ensure medical accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the "Advertiser Disclosure"?
We want to be upfront about the fact that we often add affiliate links to our posts. These links allow brands to compensate us for the traffic we refer.
We spend thousands of hours researching products in order to keep our reviews authentic and accurate. We are proud that all the information, comparison tools, and personal experiences we share remain objective, independent, and accurate to the very best of our knowledge. If you notice that anything we’ve published is outdated or otherwise untrue, please reach out so we we can correct any misinformation right away.
Do you personally test every product featured on Fin vs Fin?
No, nor do we claim to. When it comes to telemedicine and wellness offerings in general, someone’s individual experience is just one data point, but is often less relevant than other facts. As an example, it would be unwise to try a new brand of contact lenses or birth control, simply because they worked well for someone on our team.
Instead, our goal is to lay out objective facts about the products and brands we review to make it easier for shoppers to make decisions about them. One of those facts may be our personal experience with a product, but not always.

Yes!
