Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: AIで理科学習 at none against Light Lab's 2. AIで理科学習 also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.6). Light Lab's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
