Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Pararam at Free against VChate's $0.99. Pararam also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). VChate's advantage is rating (2.6 vs 1.0) and review sentiment (21% vs 0%). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
