The short version

  • Only Komoot has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Booksy the Boost marketplace feature charges a one time 30% fee on the first visit cost for each client it brings in; Komoot offline maps are sold per geographic region rather than per user, so coverage is bought as a Single Region, a Region Bundle or the World Pack
  • They diverge on capability: Booksy covers Online booking, Komoot covers Route planning.
