The short version
- Only AirVisual has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
- Each has a real cost: AirVisual outdoor readings depend on nearby government or crowdsourced monitors, so accuracy varies with local coverage; ClearAg the Internet Archive's capture of clearag.com on 21 December 2018 shows it redirecting to iteris.com/clearag, confirming ClearAg was owned and sold by Iteris, Inc. (agriculture weather analytics: soil moisture, crop growth and health, spray conditions, irrigation and harvest readiness modules) before the product later moved under DTN's Agribusiness line.
- They diverge on capability: AirVisual covers Global AQI coverage, ClearAg covers Spray window predictions.
