# Subpilot vs Cancely

The clearest difference is monetization model: Cancely at freemium against Subpilot's subscription. Cancely also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 80%). Subpilot's advantage is ratings volume (5.8K vs 12) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Subpilot sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and Cancely sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Subpilot against 4.7 for Cancely. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Subpilot has 5.8K ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 80% of Subpilot's written reviews are positive against 100% of Cancely's.

Subpilot ships an update every 4 days, Cancely every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
