The short version
- Each has a real cost: CeresAI per-acre pricing only pencils on high-value crops; on low-margin broadacre cereals the fee is hard to justify against free public satellite imagery.; Proagrica proagrica's own domain (proagrica.com) now redirects through telusagriculture.com to telus.com/agriculture, and the destination site confirms the product line now operates under TELUS Agriculture branding rather than as an independent Proagrica product.
- They diverge on capability: CeresAI covers Aerial multispectral capture, Proagrica covers EDI integration.
- 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.
CeresAI
- Per-acre pricing only pencils on high-value crops; on low-margin broadacre cereals the fee is hard to justify against free public satellite imagery.
- Aerial capture runs on a scheduled cadence and is weather dependent, so it will not answer a question you need settled tomorrow and gaps happen in bad seasons.
- Geographic coverage follows where the aircraft fly, which concentrates the service in California and a handful of other regions and leaves growers elsewhere on satellite-only products.
- The company rebranded from Ceres Imaging to CeresAI, so older contracts, integrations and search results use the previous name and buyers checking references need to know both.
- It flags problems but does not fix them; without an agronomist or manager committed to acting on every alert, the imagery becomes an expensive subscription nobody opens.
Proagrica
- Proagrica's own domain (proagrica.com) now redirects through telusagriculture.com to telus.com/agriculture, and the destination site confirms the product line now operates under TELUS Agriculture branding rather than as an independent Proagrica product.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages
CeresAI: Is Ceres Imaging still trading?
Yes, under the name CeresAI following a rebrand in 2024. The aerial imagery service continues and the company has taken further funding since.
CeresAI: How is it priced?
By the acre for a season of imagery. The rate depends on crop, region and how many flights the programme includes.
CeresAI: Why pay for aircraft when satellites are free?
Resolution and thermal. Public satellite imagery cannot resolve individual trees or reliably detect a single blocked emitter; aerial thermal capture can.
CeresAI: Does it work on broadacre cereals?
Technically yes, commercially rarely. The per-acre fee is designed against permanent crop and irrigated margins.
