Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: MasteryAI at 100% against StudyFetch's 33%. MasteryAI also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). StudyFetch's advantage is ratings volume (15K vs 3) and chart position (#129 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
