Knowunity and Vesta are both built for students, but they start from opposite points: Knowunity from content and people, Vesta from your material.

What Knowunity states

AI-generated flashcards and quizzes, an always-available chat tutor, personalised study plans and mock exams.
Content from “Creators” you can follow; the page says all content in the app is free and that Knowunity Premium exists.
The page does not mention summaries or concept maps and shows no price.

Works on your materials: PDFs, photos, Word, PowerPoint, links or a topic.
A set with a chapter summary, concept map, flashcards, quiz and questions and answers, editable by hand.
Cascade outline, reading voice and high readability for dyslexia.
Free €0, Plus €7.49 and Pro €10.99 a month; credits refunded if a generation fails.

Knowunity if you look for ready-made content from other students, a tutor to ask questions and guided study plans.
Vesta if your exam has specific slides and handouts and you want to turn them into a complete set that you check and correct.

A good rule: if the material you need already exists, use it; if it is yours, have it generated and check it. See also how to choose a study app.
