# Hello AI vs Ant Browser

The clearest difference is monetization model: Ant Browser at free with in-app purchases against Hello AI's subscription. Ant Browser also leads on review sentiment (86% vs 55%). Hello AI's advantage is ratings volume (54K vs 50). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hello AI sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and Ant Browser sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.4 for Hello AI against 4.6 for Ant Browser. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hello AI has 54K ratings behind it against 50, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 55% of Hello AI's written reviews are positive against 86% of Ant Browser's.

Hello AI ships an update every 3 weeks, Ant Browser every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
