# AI vs Chat AI

The clearest difference is rating: Chat AI at 4.6 against AI's 3.7. Chat AI also leads on review sentiment (74% vs 45%) and ratings volume (1.1K vs 7). AI's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. AI sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Chat AI sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Chat AI holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Chat AI has 1.1K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 45% of AI's written reviews are positive against 74% of Chat AI's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 10 days. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
