Craft vs Google Keep: our take

Craft takes the higher SoftwareScore, 67 to 65. That's close enough that fit matters more than the number.

Craft pulls ahead on Features and AI (Features 7 vs 3), which makes it the stronger pick for heavy multi-device use.

Google Keep pulls ahead on Value and Ease (Value 10 vs 6), which makes it the stronger pick for budget-conscious buyers.

The clearest divide is Value (Craft 6, Google Keep 10). If that axis is central to how you work, let it settle the choice.

On price they're close: Craft is Free · $8/mo and Google Keep is Free, so cost is unlikely to decide it.
