The short version

Only Notion AI has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
Each has a real cost: Notion AI full AI access including agents and meeting notes requires the Business plan at $20 per member per month, double the $10 Plus plan; Trint the Starter plan caps at seven files a month with no rollover, which a working journalist exhausts in a fortnight, so the advertised entry price is not the price most buyers will actually pay.
They diverge on capability: Notion AI covers Writing assistance, Trint covers Bound transcript editor.

Where each one falls short

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

Notion AI

Full AI access including agents and meeting notes requires the Business plan at $20 per member per month, double the $10 Plus plan
The Free and Plus plans offer trial AI capabilities rather than the full feature set
AI is not sold separately from the workspace seat, so every member must be upgraded to reach it
Zero data retention with LLM providers is Enterprise only, which is custom priced

Trint

The Starter plan caps at seven files a month with no rollover, which a working journalist exhausts in a fortnight, so the advertised entry price is not the price most buyers will actually pay.
It is priced per seat at professional software levels, so giving every reporter in a mid-sized newsroom a licence is a substantial annual line item compared with a general transcription tool.
Transcription accuracy on poor field audio, crowded rooms, phone lines and heavy accents still requires correction, and the correction time is the real cost rather than the subscription.
Single sign-on, SCIM, audit logs and API access are gated to a quoted Enterprise tier, so any organisation with an identity policy cannot use the published pricing at all.
The tooling is optimised for editorial workflow rather than raw volume, so a team that mainly needs a lot of cheap transcripts and no collaboration is paying for a surface it will not use.
