Any experience of both? Which would you go for?

I know Titus is meant to be the more premium offering. I'm looking for a gravel bike that's good for linking off road with road as well as the occasional cross race.

Have a Goldrush and have done the Badger divide on it. One the few bikes I’ve loved from day 1 and still so. It is nimble and quick, almost too competent as I take it down stuff that is really mtb territory and so have dinged a rim!
Keeps up on the road with friends on their gravel bikes - Niner, Dolan, Ribble etc, even wearing 45mms
Have tried a mates tempest and geometry wise it reminded me of my old Orro terra (1st gen so early graveller), being more road bike-esque, whereas the Goldrush is more mtb-esque. I’m a mountain biker who has a road bike so the Goldrush works for me, whereas the mate is a road biker who doesn’t own a mtb and so the tempest works for him.
My 2c anyway!
