LeadMeNot vs Ever Accountable
Ever Accountable is built around monitoring: on-device AI watches what's on your screen, warns you, and tells your partner if you don't respond, and it can optionally block porn. LeadMeNot is built around the boundaries you choose, enforced at the moment it matters, with your partner in the loop.
Choose LeadMeNot if you want the things you choose blocked before they load, rather than monitored and reported afterwards, with Safe Wall so a weak moment can't undo it.
Where Ever Accountable fits better: If you want AI that looks at the images on your screen inside every app, Ever Accountable does that today, and it covers Kindle. LeadMeNot reads text only for now; image detection is in development.
