The short version

  • Only Vizion has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: BreezoMeter no longer an independent product. Google acquired BreezoMeter and breezometer.com now redirects to the Google Maps Platform environment APIs; Vizion no price is published: the site names a pricing link but shows no per container rate, no plan tier and no minimum, and every route leads to a demo or a sales conversation
  • They diverge on capability: BreezoMeter covers Hyperlocal AQI, Vizion covers Universal carrier API.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 30 August 2026.

BreezoMeter

  • No longer an independent product. Google acquired BreezoMeter and breezometer.com now redirects to the Google Maps Platform environment APIs
  • Its capabilities are now bought as Google Maps Platform usage rather than as a standalone subscription

Vizion

  • No price is published: the site names a pricing link but shows no per container rate, no plan tier and no minimum, and every route leads to a demo or a sales conversation
