Find It Later, Remember Here, Where You Left It, Find Your Things, Save It. Find It, Never Lose Track! And so much more. Create a space, point the camera, and tap to save the exact location of tools, bins, gear, personal items, handoff spots, and reference points. Later, search semantically to recover what you marked, see what was nearby, and know when something was last placed there. Why people get it fast: - Mark real-world positions with AR - Choose visual marker styles for different situations - Save context like holder, purpose, and nearby items - Ask natural-language questions to find things later - Recover saved locations across your spaces Spatial Computer AI is built for the new habit of spatial memory: when you put something down, mark it once so you can get back to it fast. Free learning mode lets people try the behavior before they buy. Unlimited unlock removes the limits on spaces, saved marks, and semantic AI locate questions.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Placed at Free against HAMRS Pro's $1.99. Placed also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). HAMRS Pro's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and chart position (#94 vs unranked). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
