Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: FinprepAI at 67% against GCU Student's 7%. FinprepAI also leads on rating (5.0 vs 1.6) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 2 months). GCU Student's advantage is ratings volume (686 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
