WHICHBOT VERDICT
These machines usually solve different problems — Ozmo takes our scoring (8.6 vs 7.6), but the real question is which job is bleeding money on your project. Class A commercial towers and facade-maintenance contractors who want faster, safer window cleaning without retrofitting the building. Meanwhile, Bravo is the answer if your bottleneck is different: owners and contractors of warehouses, plants, and large commercial facades that need repainting at scale.
