Verdict

The call

LectMate and 听脑AI both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 66% of 听脑AI's written reviews are positive against 28% of LectMate's. 听脑AI also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). LectMate's advantage is ratings volume (691 vs 46). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
