Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Pilot+ at none against DCE Network's shown. Pilot+ also leads on update cadence (every 6 months vs every 56 months) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). DCE Network's advantage is device support (4 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.3 vs 26.0). On price, rating and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
