Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: ヒヨコマップ at 100% against Talk Compass's 50%. ヒヨコマップ also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 18 months). Talk Compass's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
