The short version

  • Only Ambient Weather Network has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • 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; Ambient Weather Network the App Store listing states the Ambient Weather Network app requires iOS 14.1 or later, and the underlying station apps (awnet, AmbientTool) are tied to specific discontinued hardware models.
  • They diverge on capability: Ag-Analytics covers Yield prediction, Ambient Weather Network covers Cloud connectivity.
