SMARTBOW plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.
| Plan | Price | Features listed | Step up from the tier below |

| SMARTBOW | On request | 4 | Entry tier |
What the product covers
The full SMARTBOW feature record, grouped as the catalogue groups it. This is the product as a whole; the record does not map every feature onto a specific tier.
Other
- Real-time location
- Heat detection
- Rumination monitoring
- Health alerts
- On-farm server
- Individual baselines
- Herd software integration
People bring SMARTBOW in for a 1,500 cow freestall barn where finding a flagged animal by eye takes twenty minutes, a dairy replacing visual heat detection with per-animal oestrus alerts to tighten calving intervals, a herd manager wanting rumination-based early warning of displaced abomasum or metritis, a vet practice using behavioural data to audit transition cow management across client herds. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to SMARTBOW are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
How that compares in Agriculture
Too few agriculture tools in this directory publish a starting price to quote a meaningful median, so the table below is a like-for-like list rather than a ranking.

Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the SMARTBOW badges page.
Before you pay for SMARTBOW
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: a single tier at On request. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare SMARTBOW against the tools that do have one before committing.
SMARTBOW runs on windows, web, ios, android, and is published by Smartbow GmbH, a Zoetis company of Weibern, Upper Austria, Austria. The full record is on the SMARTBOW review, and the rest of the category is under best agriculture tools.
