Polykit will be able to give a detailed answer, but it has a different set of features and it crawls the contents of servers independently (though it does use the same server list as Sepia Search as a starting point).

If you try them both it should show the differences best 🙂

EDIT: Also, Polykit's blog post discusses this comparison specifically https://polykit.rocks/peerseek-federated-peertube-search
