This is a genuine trade-off. FundedNext Futures is $20.01 cheaper to start, but TradeDay scores 17 points higher (86 vs 69). And we do not have one drawdown model for both firms (FundedNext Futures runs end-of-day trailing, TradeDay's drawdown varies by plan), which can matter more than the score gap depending on how you trade.

The short version
What actually separates them
4 fields on the record split FundedNext Futures and TradeDay — the three that change how you trade are here. Everything else either matches or is not on the record yet.
Intraday trailing tightens against your open profit; end-of-day trailing only resets at the close; static never moves. This is the rule most likely to end an account.
A consistency cap limits how much of your total profit one day may contribute, so a single outsized winner can delay a payout.
Entry cost for the cheapest account each firm sells, before any live discount.
Not comparable yet: daily loss limit, trader profit split — at least one of the two firms has no figure on record, so we do not draw a conclusion from it. A blank here means we have not confirmed the rule, not that the firm has none.

Where each firm is stronger
Each side shows the plan whose score is that firm's grade.
A dash means the factor is not scored for that plan: we have not recorded the evidence it needs, such as the firm's founding year or enough of the plan's rules. Its weight moves to the factors that are scored rather than counting as a zero.
