Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: KeyboardKit at 4.3 against iKeywi's 3.0. KeyboardKit also leads on review sentiment (52% vs 34%) and ratings volume (85 vs 5). iKeywi's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 26.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
