Beforehand is a community driven app where people can put real conviction behind any question and see where everyone stands. You create simple Yes or No questions inside communities, invite others to take a side, and watch the split update as more people join. It is built for campuses, cities, friend groups, and private communities that want a clean way to settle debates, signal confidence, and follow what their crowd believes. Questions run on clear timelines, end in a final outcome or a cancellation when needed, and use a structured resolution process to keep things consistent.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: beforehand at 100% against Spill's 65%. beforehand also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Spill's advantage is ratings volume (1.6K vs 3). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

beforehand holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6.

Written reviews point the same way: 65% of Spill's written reviews are positive against 100% of beforehand's.
