Superpower vs InsideTracker
Superpower vs InsideTracker: Superpower is $199 (one annual baseline; follow-up testing costs extra), and InsideTracker is $489 (on-demand (pay per test, discounted with membership)). Superpower costs less, and Superpower covers more biomarkers (59 vs 46).
I've reviewed Superpower in detail and reviewed InsideTracker in detail. To build this comparison I pulled each provider's current biomarker list and pricing, then normalized the marker names so the counts line up like for like.
Below I compare the two side by side: first-year cost, renewal, extra fees and clinician access, the exact tests each panel includes and where they diverge, who founded each company and whether a doctor is on the team, and the apps and any AI each has built.

- Superpower: "Superpower AI" is a retrieval-augmented layer with clinician review over an undisclosed third-party LLM, not a trained model; its "trained on medical literature" wording refers to a retrieval corpus, not model weights. A native Android app isn't confirmed yet.
- InsideTracker: Markets a "proprietary AI engine" (machine learning plus computational biology), but hasn't announced a self-trained foundation model.
Superpower vs InsideTracker: which is better?
