The Bio-Acoustical Utilization Device (BAUD) is a device that creates sonic waves that coincide with brain frequencies measured by an electroencephalogram (EEG). By integrating the BAUD as a stimulant with other therapies, such as neurotherapy or music therapy, the individual can better grasp the significance of regulating their brain waves as well as other psychophysiological dimensions, such as relaxation and indices of mood. The Music frequencies can increase or decrease a person's mood levels; drum rhythms also have been documented as having an affect. All of the body can be influenced by external frequencies, such as the frequency waves measured by the electrocardiogram (EKG) or sonogram energy waves for the heart, electromyogram and the (EMG) energetic waves from the surface muscles. The iBAUD is the embodiment of the BAUD on iPhone/iPad. The iBAUD is a designated relaxation biofeedback modality which has been shown to significantly relieve individuals from the symptoms of stress and trauma by means of sound frequencies.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Satoria at Free against iBaud's $99.99. Satoria also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
