Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TalkType at none against Voice to Text AI Transcriber's 3. Voice to Text AI Transcriber's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 35 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
