The Verdict
Craft is built for apple users and writers, with a focus on block-editor and nested-pages. Relay.app targets operations teams and agencies and leads with workflow-builder and ai-steps.
On pricing, Craft is the clear winner for budget-conscious users — starting at $5/mo compared to $16/mo for Relay.app. That $11/mo difference adds up quickly for growing teams.
Both offer free plans, so you can test each with your real workflow before committing to a subscription.
Bottom line: Craft has a slight overall edge — but if human-in-the-loop approvals matters most to you, Relay.app may still be the right call.
