The short version

  • Only Agworld has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Agworld no prices are published for any of the four tiers; Teralytic the company is reported at around six employees, so if it stops trading the buried probes become inert hardware, which is the single biggest risk in a multi-year soil sensing deployment.
  • They diverge on capability: Agworld covers Field mapping, Teralytic covers Wireless NPK sensing.
  • 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.

Agworld

  • No prices are published for any of the four tiers
  • Planning, budgeting and margin reporting need Grower Plus; machinery integrations and weather stations need Grower Pro
  • The trial is 7 days, after which the account drops to read-only unless you subscribe
  • Basic covers record keeping and compliance only

Teralytic

  • The company is reported at around six employees, so if it stops trading the buried probes become inert hardware, which is the single biggest risk in a multi-year soil sensing deployment.
  • No current pricing is published and reported figures have moved between roughly 300 and 500 US dollars per probe per year, so a buyer cannot model the cost of a hundred-probe deployment without a quote.
  • The subscription is mandatory for the probe to report at all, so the up-front hardware payment buys nothing durable and a lapsed account means a field full of dead instruments.
  • In-field NPK sensing is scientifically contested and readings need interpretation against soil type and calibration, so agronomists will not treat the numbers as interchangeable with a lab test and many will insist on both.
  • Spatial coverage is the unsolved problem: a probe measures one point, soil varies over metres, and covering a field properly multiplies both the hardware and the annual subscription by the number of zones you care about.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Agworld: What are the main feature differences between Agworld's grower tiers?

Grower Basic focuses on digital record keeping and agronomist connections. Grower Plus (marked as most popular) adds planning, budgeting, gross margin reporting, and satellite imagery. Grower Pro includes machinery integrations, weather station connections, and custom reporting for data-driven operations.

Source
Teralytic: Can I buy the probe without a subscription?

No. The probe reports through Teralytic’s network into its cloud, and without an active subscription it does not deliver data.

Agworld: How can I try Agworld before committing to a subscription?

Agworld offers a 7-day free trial with full Pro feature access and no credit card required. After the trial ends, users retain read-only access to their data without subscribing.

Source
Teralytic: Does it replace lab soil tests?

No. It gives continuous in-season trend data. Most agronomists will still want lab results for absolute nutrient values and for compliance records.

Agworld: Is there an Enterprise plan available for larger farming operations?

Yes, an Enterprise plan is available for large-scale operations. Interested customers should contact Agworld directly through their website's contact form to discuss custom Enterprise pricing and features.

Source
Teralytic: How much does it cost?

Teralytic does not publish current pricing. Reported figures have ranged from roughly 300 to 500 US dollars per probe per year including hardware and connectivity.

Teralytic: How many probes does a field need?

That depends on soil variability. One probe represents one point, so a field with several distinct soil zones needs one per zone to be meaningful.
