Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: ASR at none against AI's shown. ASR also leads on update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 5 months) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). AI's advantage is ratings volume (6 vs 1). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for AI against 5.0 for ASR. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AI has 6 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
AI ships an update every 5 months, ASR every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
