Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Limit at none against podbrief.ai's 1. Limit also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (273 vs 2). podbrief.ai's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 6 weeks) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
