Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Olive at 5.0 against Narrative Summit's 1.0. Olive also leads on ratings volume (14 vs 1) and update cadence (every 3 days vs weekly). Narrative Summit's advantage is monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
