# Gemini Notebook vs Grok Bot

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Gemini Notebook at 61K against Grok Bot's 4.6K. Grok Bot's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs weekly). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Gemini Notebook sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Grok Bot sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $25.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Gemini Notebook against 4.9 for Grok Bot. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gemini Notebook has 61K ratings behind it against 4.6K, so its average is the more settled of the two.
