We built a tool to audit electric and water bills for overcharges

Most people don’t realise their utility bills can be reduced. They assume what they’re paying is just the rate. We built a tool that audits water and electric bills and finds savings most people wouldn’t think to check for. Even when usage looks normal, the charges often aren’t.

In many cases, people are paying more than they need to—sometimes by thousands a year—without ever knowing. We’ve been surprised by how often it works. Curious if anyone here has worked on similar tools or explored this space.

Not a fan of asking for an email after uploading.

I didn't get the report emailed to me (yet? maybe because I censored my personal details?). Just a popup asking to subscribe. I doubt there's anyway to save more than the cost of the service.
