Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Object Detector & DocScan at none against Emvi.ai's 3. Object Detector & DocScan also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). Emvi.ai's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and device support (3 vs 1). On price there is nothing between them.
