Where is Aimlabs the better choice?
A much larger library
Aimlabs lists 50K+ tasks and playlists. AimKata has 21 drills, so if you want variety or a specific task, Aimlabs has it and AimKata does not.
An official Valorant connection
Aimlabs calls itself a Valorant official partner, and its members get a Valorant Training Center with 1:1 Valorant maps. AimKata has no connection to Riot and uses original maps.
Consoles and controllers
Aimlabs is on Xbox and PlayStation and supports controllers. AimKata needs a computer, a mouse and a keyboard.
Playing with other people
Aimlabs has Co-op, 1v1 Duels and Free-for-All. AimKata’s only competition is the leaderboards.
Games other than Valorant
If you split your time between several shooters, a tool with profiles for hundreds of games suits you better.
Where is KovaaK's the better choice?
Deep customisation
KovaaK's offers a map editor, control over game physics and the Steam Workshop. AimKata has no editor.
The biggest scenario pool
Its Steam page lists over 200,000 scenarios and playlists, including Benchmarks, Workouts and Competitions.
One payment
The base game is a single $9.99 purchase on Steam in the US, with no subscription. AimKata’s paid features are monthly.
Where is AimKata the better choice?
Nothing to install
It opens in a browser tab, so you can run a drill on a shared or locked-down computer, or in the minutes before a game, with no store and no download.
Built only for Valorant
Sensitivity is the same 0.07° per mouse count, the view is the same locked 103°, and guns use Valorant’s fire rates, magazines and damage, as of game build release-13.09. The about page lists each match.
Drills where you move and bots shoot back
Site Hold, Clear the Angles and Peek Duel use WASD, counter-strafing and return fire, with a deadzone at Valorant’s 27.5% of run speed.
A free core with no account
16 of 21 drills, ranks, the Path and the daily routine cost nothing and need no sign-in. Paste your Valorant crosshair code and go.
Which one should you pick?
If you want the largest library, a Valorant partner or a console, choose Aimlabs. If you want to build your own scenarios, choose KovaaK's. If you want Valorant practice in a tab with nothing to install, try AimKata first: it costs nothing to find out, and you can also use more than one.
AimKata has not measured its input delay against these apps. Installed software has fewer layers between it and your mouse, so judge the feel yourself, in Chrome or Edge, using the same 15-minute routine on your real sensitivity.
Common questions
Is AimKata made by Aimlabs?
No. AimKata has no connection to Aimlabs or to Statespace, the company that publishes it. It also has no connection to Riot Games.
Can I import my Aimlabs tasks or playlists?
No. AimKata has its own drills and no task import. Your mouse sensitivity carries over directly, because AimKata uses Valorant’s own sensitivity number.
Is AimKata free like Aimlabs?
Both have a free tier. AimKata’s free tier covers 16 of 21 drills with no account. Pro costs $5 a month and Supporter $50 a month. Aimlabs’s paid tier is Aimlabs+, from $7 to $10 a month by length of plan.
Which has the better Valorant training?
Aimlabs has a bigger library and 1:1 Valorant maps for members, and it describes itself as a Valorant official partner. AimKata is free to open in a browser and is built only around Valorant’s numbers. Neither page can tell you which suits your hand, so try both.
