Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Belong.in at 3.0 against Transparency's 2.2. Belong.in also leads on review sentiment (50% vs 14%) and update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months). Transparency's advantage is ratings volume (26 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
