Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: TechAssist Pro at 100% against Tauris Training's 50%. TechAssist Pro also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.9). Tauris Training's advantage is ratings volume (11 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
