Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Didomi

  • Pricing is based on monthly unique visitors and is not published, so a large publisher cannot estimate cost before entering a sales process, and traffic spikes translate directly into billing surprises.
  • Consent banners depress measurable traffic by design, and Didomi cannot prevent that, so publishers moving from a non-compliant banner should expect an immediate drop in tracked users and attributable conversions.
  • Certification is a moving target: Google and IAB update requirements periodically and each version change forces integration work on your side, not only on the vendor's.
  • Connected TV consent collection depends on the app platform and remote control interface, and implementations are considerably more involved than a web banner, often requiring per-platform development.
  • The wider privacy suite beyond consent is thinner than dedicated privacy platforms, so an organisation needing data subject rights automation and data mapping usually buys a second vendor anyway.

Spellbook

  • It publishes no accuracy figure for its own output and no independent evaluation exists, so a firm must run its own assessment on real agreements.
  • The ten times more accurate claim originated in a funding announcement as a statement of intent and has no methodology, dataset or baseline behind it.
  • Contract text is processed by third-party model providers, so despite the zero data retention agreements this still needs checking against client confidentiality terms and outside counsel guidelines.
  • Pricing is not published, so seat cost cannot be compared against competitors without booking a demo.
  • It is a drafting assistant rather than a contract lifecycle system, so it does nothing for execution, obligation tracking or renewals.
