The short version

  • Only Komoot has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: 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; WHOOP higher cost than many fitness tracker alternatives on annual basis
  • They diverge on capability: Komoot covers Route planning, WHOOP covers Strain score.
