I have the info you are looking for, but the Hidden Hitch and the Draw Tite hitches are basically the same thing as they are both made by the same company. Curt is different as it is a completely different company.
The Curt is going to have the edge on which is the most concealed as it is the most recessed under the bumper. The Draw Tite # 36407 is going to sit just as high as the Curt # C12252 but it would stick out more horizontally.
I attached pictures of both installed on a vehicle for you to check out as well. You'll notice that there really isn't a huge difference between the two. Most likely you would be happier with the Draw Tite if you are planning on carrying a bike rack or cargo carrier.
Curt requires the use of their stabilizer strap part # 18050 when using their hitch to carry a non-supported load like a bike rack. I attached a review video for you to check for the strap as well.
