Choose gpt_academic if…
- License: gpt_academic is GPL-3.0, kereva-scanner is Apache-2.0.
- Requirements: Min 8 GB RAM; 依赖Python环境.
- Tags unique to gpt_academic: academic, chatglm-6b, chatgpt, gpt-4.
- gpt_academic ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.

When NOT to use gpt_academic
- Last GitHub push was 171 days ago (slowing maintenance, Jan 25, 2026). Validate activity before betting a new project on gpt_academic.
- Developer Tools: A gateway is overkill when you're pinned to a single provider and model.
- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
Choose kereva-scanner if…
- License: kereva-scanner is Apache-2.0, gpt_academic is GPL-3.0.
- Tags unique to kereva-scanner: ai, ai-code-review, ai-evaluation, ai-performance.
- Also covers Vector Databases.
