Jupiter vs 
Uniswap
Different layers of the same stack. Uniswap is an exchange holding its own liquidity pools; Jupiter is an aggregator that routes a trade across every venue on Solana to find the best price, and has grown into a broader product suite around that. Comparing them is comparing a venue with a router, which is why they can both be indispensable on their respective chains.
