# Mountain Project vs SmartCastAI

The clearest difference is review sentiment: SmartCastAI at 100% against Mountain Project's 36%. SmartCastAI also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Mountain Project's advantage is ratings volume (4.6K vs 5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

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