# 58同城 vs AI Mate

The clearest difference is ads: AI Mate at none against 58同城's shown. 58同城's advantage is review sentiment (44% vs 15%) and ratings volume (1.5K vs 62). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 58同城 sells 55 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per month and AI Mate sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

AI Mate holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 58同城 has 1.5K ratings behind it against 62, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 44% of 58同城's written reviews are positive against 15% of AI Mate's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

58同城 ships an update fortnightly, AI Mate every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
