# Swifty Compiler vs AI Capture

The clearest difference is rating: AI Capture at 5.0 against Swifty Compiler's 4.5. AI Capture also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 84%). Swifty Compiler's advantage is ratings volume (203 vs 2) and chart position (#86 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Swifty Compiler sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and AI Capture sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

AI Capture holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Swifty Compiler has 203 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 84% of Swifty Compiler's written reviews are positive against 100% of AI Capture's.
