Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Sentence Embedding at Free against Shortcut Remote Control's $0.99. Sentence Embedding also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Shortcut Remote Control's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.8.3). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
