Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Read AI at 1.1K against IMPACT MINDS's 3. Read AI also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.7) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). IMPACT MINDS's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
