The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Ag-Analytics the vendor's homepage as captured by the Internet Archive on 16 June 2019 offered the Profit Layers tool as a 30 day free trial then a monthly subscription billed at $0.01 per acre; this capture is over five years old and should be treated as historical, not current pricing; Allflex Livestock Intelligence the subscription version never ends: at published New Zealand rates a 400-cow herd on the Premium plan pays roughly 22,700 dollars a year indefinitely, which over a ten-year collar life exceeds what an outright purchase would have cost.
  • They diverge on capability: Ag-Analytics covers Yield prediction, Allflex Livestock Intelligence covers Heat detection.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Allflex Livestock Intelligence

  • The subscription version never ends: at published New Zealand rates a 400-cow herd on the Premium plan pays roughly 22,700 dollars a year indefinitely, which over a ten-year collar life exceeds what an outright purchase would have cost.
  • The software only works with Allflex sensors, so a farm that wants to change monitoring supplier replaces every collar or tag on every animal, which is the switching cost that keeps herds in place.
  • Automated sorting requires a drafting gate that is a separate capital purchase, published in New Zealand at 38,200 to 53,500 dollars plus GST, so the alerts are only as useful as your willingness to fetch cows by hand until you buy one.
  • Pricing is published in only a few markets and varies with herd size and distributor, so a buyer in North America or Europe cannot benchmark a quote without doing the cross-market conversion themselves.
  • Integration into herd management packages is partner-dependent rather than universal, and a farm running an uncommon local herd recording system may find data has to be exported and reconciled rather than flowing across.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Allflex Livestock Intelligence: Does the software work without Allflex tags?

No. SenseHub reads Allflex sensors only, so the software and hardware are a single purchase decision.

Allflex Livestock Intelligence: What does SenseHub cost per cow?

Where published, a collar Starter plan is around 3.83 New Zealand dollars per cow per month and Premium around 4.73, both excluding GST and both varying with herd size and region.

Allflex Livestock Intelligence: Is there a way to buy it outright instead of subscribing?

Yes, the purchased system remains available with Starter, Advanced and Premium licence tiers, quoted through distributors. SenseHub GO is the subscription alternative.

Allflex Livestock Intelligence: Do I need a drafting gate?

Not to receive alerts, but without one you fetch flagged cows manually. Gates are a separate five-figure capital purchase.
