Which one would each critic pick
| Critic | Gito | LaReview | Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| El Juez | — | — | not enough reviews |
| El Amigo | 7.0 | 7.0 | no preference |
| El Crítico | 6.0 | 6.0 | no preference |
| El Profesor | 6.3 | 6.0 | Gito — The model behind the review is a configuration choice, so no published number could describe the tool rather than somebody's deployment. None is published, which is at least consistent. |
| La Inversora | 5.8 | 5.3 | Gito — 432 stars, one maintainer and a package on the index, competing in the one category where buyers do pay subscriptions and the alternatives are funded and hosted. |
| La Jefa | 6.5 | 6.0 | Gito — No seats to buy for sixty engineers, it installs as a job on every pull request, and it already speaks to the trackers my teams live in. |
| El Hacker | 6.3 | 6.5 | LaReview — MIT, a prebuilt binary rather than a package manager, and linked local repositories mean the code search happens on my disk even though the inference does not. |
Picks are derived from each critic's own scores. Humans vote on matchups on the duels page.
