Gratsi settles the check gracefully. Enter the bill—or scan a receipt entirely on your device—choose a tip, split with the table, and keep each person’s share pinned in view. WHY GRATSI • No ads, subscriptions, or accounts. • Scan receipts on-device; subtotal, tax, and service fees fill automatically. • Avoid tipping twice when service is already included. • Tip before or after tax, with the math clearly shown. • Split up to 30 ways with fair rounding and transparent extra cents. • Share a polished receipt summary. • Save calculations and places on your device, with a Home Screen widget. • Light and dark modes, localized in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. • Optional privacy-conscious analytics are off until you choose. Analytics never include receipts, financial amounts, merchants, searches, saved places, coordinates, or precise location. Tip in one tap. The rest is dinner.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Gratsi at 100% against Intelligentsia Coffee's 43%. Gratsi also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.4) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months). Intelligentsia Coffee's advantage is ratings volume (269 vs 4) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
