Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Paradigm at none against Project's shown. Paradigm also leads on review sentiment (81% vs 72%). Project's advantage is chart position (#180 vs unranked) and ratings volume (1.5K vs 268). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
