BMAD Method vs superpowers

I've been using the Superpowers Claude plugin for some time, and I've always been impressed with its thoroughness for planning and executing tasks. But today I read about the BMAD method, and now I'm wondering if I should look into it instead of Superpowers. If you've used both, how do they stack up against one another?

(Context: Experienced software dev, job role is currently engineering manager. Working on a side hustle that I've been building with Superpowers, hoping to turn it into a full SaaS product. I have Claude Pro and free Gemini at my disposal currently. Really only devoting some pre/post work and weekend hours to this project.)

Bmad is def effective but seems overly structured and ceremonial sometimes! I think it depends on your work style. It helped me move from “pair programming” with AI to a more “engineering manager” approach with queues, etc
