# Bots vs Chat AI

Bots and Chat AI both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 89% of Chat AI's written reviews are positive against 43% of Bots's. Chat AI also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.0). Bots's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, rating, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bots sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days and Chat AI sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Bots against 4.7 for Chat AI. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1.3K and 1.5K respectively. Written reviews are what separate them: 43% of Bots's written reviews are positive against 89% of Chat AI's.

Bots ships an update every 5 days, Chat AI every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on November 7, 2026.
