# FlightDeck vs OverFlight Intelligence

The clearest difference is monetization model: OverFlight Intelligence at free with in-app purchases against FlightDeck's subscription. OverFlight Intelligence also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). FlightDeck's advantage is ratings volume (1.1K vs 1) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 9 days). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. FlightDeck sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days and OverFlight Intelligence sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
