Start with temperature-based health monitoring, or add GeoLocation when knowing where an animal is matters as much as knowing it needs attention.
These packages focus on continuous rumen temperature monitoring and the alerts, trends and workflows that can be built from that signal. GeoLocation is not included in these packages.
Health package pricing: Published hardware starting points. Subscription starts at $3/animal/month and varies by selected features and herd size. Taxes, freight, deployment and subscription are not included unless stated.
Which animals are showing a temperature change that deserves a closer look?
GeoLocation deployments add location intelligence to health monitoring. Because position depends on gateway geometry and ranch layout, every GeoLocation system starts with a minimum of 3 Herd IQ™ GeoLocation Gateways.
Geo Foundation begins with three gateways. Larger packages increase gateway count with herd size, and complex ranch layouts may require additional gateways.
Need more animals or more coverage? Additional monitoring boluses can be added to any GeoLocation package at that tier's bolus price. Additional Herd IQ™ GeoLocation Gateways are $1,499 each when ranch size, terrain or layout requires more coverage. Bolus quantity scales with animals; gateway quantity scales with coverage.
The easiest way to choose is to decide whether you only need to know who deserves attention, or also need the system to help tell you where that animal is.
