Headway app is not a scam, I have used it (but do not recommend it). It is cheaper than Blinkist, but only by a few dollars. Annual subscription of Blinkist is around $80-90 but you also could share it with another person (potentially making it half-price). Headway app is hovering between $70-$90 depending on how you buy.
The book summary quality/podcasts are much better on Blinkist. If you are going to invest on yourself, don't go cheap. I would rather pay a few extra bucks a year for a service that I might actually use rather than buy something cheap I might never use.

If I'm using Blinkist as my reference point, I had the subscription for a year (for free through something). I remember comparing the Blinkist summaries vs the actual books that I did read, and sure, you'll get the key points...but with much less color from the stories around them--and accordingly, less ability to retain the content. Back when I had Blinkist was also pre-ChatGPT. Now, with ChatGPT, I suspect I can get the same quality...potentially even better summaries out of GPT 5.1.
