Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: MySequence at none against Named entity recognition's shown. Named entity recognition's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 months) and iOS requirement (15.8.3 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
