Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: SHVR at 100% against Brex's 44%. SHVR also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Brex's advantage is ratings volume (8.8K vs 2) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
