Airtame Pricing 2026: Plans, Costs & Renewal Fees

Quick Summary

  • Airtame's 3-year bundles run $299 to $1,299 per display, then $120–$300/device/year to renew.
  • Signage and alerts come standard on every tier, but only screen sharing survives if you skip renewal.
  • Rise Vision works with Airtame or runs standalone, either way for a flat $1,399/school/year.

What Does It Really Cost to Run Your Displays with Airtame?

Airtame's pricing looks simple at first glance, but a few things are worth understanding before you know what you're really paying. Contract length, license renewals, and how many displays you're covering will all affect what you actually pay over time.

This guide walks through how Airtame's hardware and licensing work, what happens when a license expires, and how to estimate your real cost as you add more displays.

Why Trust Us?

We work with K-12 schools, districts, and multi-site organizations that use Airtame and similar solutions every day, so we understand the practical considerations IT leaders and administrators weigh when planning budgets.

“We saw a cost savings by choosing Rise Vision over other options like Vivi, without compromising quality or functionality. When you combine the screen sharing and the digital signage options, it is an easy choice. Rise Vision has been a smart investment for our schools.”

— Eric Burt, Technology Director at West Fork CSD

The information in this guide is based on Airtame's publicly available pricing and documentation. By the end, you'll have a clear picture of what running Airtame actually costs, both upfront and over time.

Airtame Go

Airtame Go is Airtame's entry-level option, combining an Amazon Signage Stick with an Ethernet adapter and including a Core license. That gets you screen sharing, digital signage, remote management, and emergency alerts, while video conferencing is available with the Hybrid tier on Airtame 3. Business pricing runs $499 for a three-year term. Education pricing is lower at $299. The package includes a three-year warranty.

Airtame Go also doesn't have the same estimated 12-week lead time as Airtame 3 hardware, making it a practical option if you need to deploy displays sooner. After the initial term, Core can be renewed for $120 per device per year to continue using those features.

Airtame 3: Core vs. Hybrid

Airtame 3 is Airtame's flagship device, and the license you pick determines what it can do. Core covers screen sharing, digital signage, remote management, and emergency alerts. Hybrid adds native video conferencing with support for Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, and Webex.

Airtame 3 currently ships with a 12-week lead time, so if you're working toward a specific rollout date, build that into your timeline early.

Virtual Airtame

Virtual Airtame skips new hardware. It's a software install that runs on a Windows or Android device. It includes the same screen sharing, digital signage, remote management, and emergency alerts as Airtame Go and Airtame 3. Hybrid unlocks video conferencing here too.

Whichever option you go with, it's the license underneath, Core or Hybrid, that determines what you actually get. Here's what those tiers include.

What Each Airtame Tier Includes

Airtame’s digital signage works with popular tools, including Google Slides, Canva, PowerPoint, Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, Power BI, Trello, and YouTube. Once you set up your content in Airtame Cloud, updates sync automatically to your displays.

Emergency alerts integrate with existing safety systems. Supported integrations include Raptor, Singlewire/InformaCast, and CrisisGo. Alerts interrupt whatever's on screen, including active presentations, signage, even displays in standby. You can also run drills to test your setup before it's needed.

The 3-Year Cost of Covering Every Display with Airtame

The prices above are shown on a per-display basis. As you roll out Airtame across more locations, it's worth seeing how those costs add up across a full building. Here's what that looks like for 10 and 25 displays, including what renewal adds once the initial term ends.

What Airtame Costs as You Scale

Option

10 displays (3-yr)

10 displays + 1st renewal year

25 displays (3-yr)

25 displays + 1st renewal year

Airtame Go

$4,990

$6,190

$12,475

$15,475

Airtame 3 Core

$7,490

$8,690

$18,725

$21,725

Airtame 3 Hybrid

$12,990

$15,990

$32,475

$39,975

All figures use business pricing. Education pricing would bring the Go numbers down. Core isn't sold standalone for education, and Hybrid education pricing matches business, so those two rows stay the same either way.

What Happens If You Don't Renew

If a license isn't renewed, you hold onto some basic functionality. Screen sharing keeps working, along with the basics of remote management: viewing your displays remotely, editing network and security settings, and applying firmware updates manually.

Digital signage, emergency alerts, and a few remote management extras — like sleep schedules and device alerts — all need an active Core license to keep running. So you can keep sharing screens without a license, but you'll need an active one to get the rest.

How Rise Vision's Pricing Compares with Airtame’s

Rise Vision's K-12 Unlimited license costs $1,399 per school per year and covers every display in your building. Over three years, that's a total of $4,197. For comparison, licensing 25 displays with Airtame 3 Core over the same period would cost approximately $18,725 before any renewal costs. It comes down to how each platform licenses its product. Airtame licenses individual displays, while Rise Vision's Unlimited plan covers all displays within a school for a single annual price.

Rise Vision also brings digital signage, screen sharing, and emergency alerts together in one platform, with free training and support backed by a 99% satisfaction rating on every plan. Every subscription comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee, so there's no risk in trying it for yourself.

So, What's the Right Move for Your Building?

The right move depends on what you need your platform to do.

If your main need is wireless screen sharing for a handful of rooms, Airtame does that well on its own.

For schools and organizations managing digital signage, screen sharing, and emergency alerts across an entire building or district, an all-in-one platform makes both the budget and the day-to-day easier. That's Rise Vision.

You can also run them together. Rise Vision runs directly on Airtame 2, Airtame Hub, and Virtual Airtame through the Airtame Cloud dashboard without requiring a separate installation. If you'd rather not use Airtame hardware at all, Rise Vision's own screen sharing and signage cover the same ground natively. Either way, you land on one platform for digital signage, emergency alerts, and screen sharing instead of piecing tools together.

Start a 14-day free trial or schedule a free demo and see how Rise Vision fits your school or organization. Every plan also includes a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Digital signage doesn't have to be difficult.

We make it easy or your money back. 30 days risk-free.
