The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Augury the per-machine annual fee never stops, so over a five to eight year horizon the total exceeds buying sensors and software outright and running the programme yourself.; Sensemore the company is small and young, so the failure-mode library behind its models is built on a much narrower installed base than SKF or Augury can draw on, and diagnostic specificity reflects that.
  • They diverge on capability: Augury covers Halo sensors, Sensemore covers Wireless vibration sensors.
  • 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.

Augury

  • The per-machine annual fee never stops, so over a five to eight year horizon the total exceeds buying sensors and software outright and running the programme yourself.
  • Coverage is aimed at standard rotating equipment; reciprocating compressors, very low-speed machinery and non-rotating assets are poorly served, so you still need a second monitoring approach.
  • Diagnoses depend on Augurys analysts, which means the quality of your programme is set by a vendor queue you do not control and turnaround is not something you can escalate internally.
  • The sensors and the analytics are one system, so leaving Augury means removing the hardware and starting again; there is no path to keep the sensors and change the software.
  • Pricing is unpublished and negotiated per fleet, so buyers have no benchmark and comparable plants can pay materially different per-machine rates.

Sensemore

  • The company is small and young, so the failure-mode library behind its models is built on a much narrower installed base than SKF or Augury can draw on, and diagnostic specificity reflects that.
  • Support and spares are largely delivered through distributors, so response quality varies by country and buyers outside Turkey and the immediate region should verify local coverage before ordering.
  • Pricing is not published and routes through integrators, which means the software cost is often bundled into a project price you cannot decompose.
  • Long-term vendor viability is an open question for a venture-stage hardware company, and a sensor network is a ten-year commitment; an exit or wind-down would strand the installed hardware.
  • Documentation and the analytics user interface are thinner than established competitors, so teams without vibration expertise get less guidance in interpreting what the platform flags.

Questions people ask

Is Augury or Sensemore better?
Neither clearly leads. Augury starts at On request and Sensemore at On request, and user ratings are close enough to be indistinguishable. Choose on capability and platform support.
Which is cheaper, Augury or Sensemore?
Augury starts at On request and Sensemore at On request.
Does Augury or Sensemore run on more platforms?
Both run on Web, iOS, Android, so platform support will not decide this one for you.
What is Augury best used for?
Augury is most often used for a food plant with 200 similar motors and pumps and no vibration analyst on staff, a multi-site manufacturer that needs one reliability picture across plants without standardising their maintenance teams, an operator whose capex budget will not approve sensor hardware but whose opex budget will approve a service, a site trying to move from calendar-based motor overhauls to condition-based intervals with defensible evidence. Of those, a food plant with 200 similar motors and pumps and no vibration analyst on staff and a multi-site manufacturer that needs one reliability picture across plants without standardising their maintenance teams are not what Sensemore is typically brought in for.
What can Augury do that Sensemore cannot?
Augury covers Halo sensors, Diagnostics as a Service, Named fault diagnosis, Process Health. Sensemore covers Wireless vibration sensors, Handheld analyser, Cloud platform, Machine learning models.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Augury: Do I buy the sensors?

No. Sensors, gateways, connectivity and installation are included in the per-machine annual fee.

Sensemore: Where is Sensemore based?

Istanbul, Turkey. It designs and manufactures its own sensing hardware.

Augury: Is there a per-user licence?

No. The web application allows unlimited users; the meter is monitored machines.

Sensemore: Is pricing published?

No. Hardware and platform are quoted, usually through a distributor or system integrator.

Augury: Who does the diagnosis?

Machine-learning models flag issues and Augury vibration analysts review them before a finding is released to you.

Sensemore: How does it compare on cost?

It is positioned below the established Western condition monitoring vendors, which is the reason most buyers evaluate it.

Augury: What happens if we cancel?

The sensors are part of the service and monitoring stops; you do not retain a usable standalone system.

Sensemore: Can I get the raw data out?

Yes, there is a REST API and MQTT support for pulling measurements into other systems.
