The short version

  • Only Tend has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Agrivi no public pricing information disclosed on vendor website; Tend the free tier keeps only three years of history and 500 MB of storage, so a grower who stays on it loses the multi-season comparison that makes crop planning software worth having in the first place.
  • They diverge on capability: Agrivi covers Production planning, Tend covers Visual crop planning.
  • 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.

Agrivi

  • No public pricing information disclosed on vendor website
  • Customers must book a meeting with sales team to discuss pricing
  • No pricing tiers, plan names, or trial option details available

Tend

  • The free tier keeps only three years of history and 500 MB of storage, so a grower who stays on it loses the multi-season comparison that makes crop planning software worth having in the first place.
  • Data retention is a paid feature at every level below Ultimate, which is an unusual thing to meter: a farm that downgrades from Pro to Free after a bad year risks losing records it may need for organic certification audits.
  • There is no machinery, telematics, soil sampling or variable-rate capability at all, so any operation that adds broadacre ground has to run a second platform rather than extend this one.
  • AI features are metered in credits rather than included, and the allowances are small at the lower tiers, so the assistant becomes something you ration rather than rely on.
  • The company is small and privately held with a narrow customer base, which means integrations outside payments and basic accounting are thin and a request for a connector to a regional distributor or certifier is unlikely to be built.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Agrivi: How is Agrivi priced?

Agrivi does not publish pricing details publicly. Organizations interested in the platform must book a meeting with the Agrivi sales team to discuss pricing tailored to their specific agricultural operation needs.

Source
Tend: Does Tend charge by the acre?

No. Pricing is flat by user count, and there are no acreage or crop limits on any tier including the free one. That is the main reason small growers pick it over broadacre platforms.

Agrivi: Is there a free trial available for Agrivi?

Agrivi does not disclose trial or evaluation options on their public website. Customers must contact the sales team directly to inquire about trial access or platform evaluation capabilities.

Source
Tend: Can Tend handle a CSA?

Yes, including member share management and a farm-stand storefront, though payment processing runs through a third party.

Tend: Is it suitable for a 500 acre grain farm?

No. There is no machinery data, no prescription writing and no as-applied reporting. It is built for high-crop-count, low-acreage operations.

Tend: What happens to my records if I cancel?

Export before you cancel. Retention limits apply per tier, and the free tier keeps three years, so downgrading is not a safe archive strategy.
