How GridSaver Works

Fully automated electricity rate optimization — from scanning to switching, we handle everything.

The full pipeline, explained

1

You sign up in 2 minutes

Tell us your ZIP code, average monthly bill, and preferences (renewable, fixed-rate, no cancellation fees). We use this to filter out plans that don't fit you and only show the ones that do.

What we need: ZIP code, state, average monthly usage, your preferences. That's it — no account numbers required upfront.

We scan the market for you — every month

30 days before your billing cycle renews, our smart technology queries every registered retail electricity supplier in your state, plus public data sources like the EIA, PowerToChoose (TX), and OpenEI. We collect hundreds of rate plans simultaneously.

We analyze every plan and recommend the best rate

Our intelligent platform compares every plan on total cost of ownership — not just the headline rate. It factors in monthly fees, cancellation fees, contract terms, supplier reliability scores, and your actual usage pattern.

What we check for every plan:

Supply rate (cents/kWh)
Distribution/delivery charges
Fixed monthly service fees
Cancellation fees (current + new plan)
Contract length vs. your preference
Supplier customer satisfaction rating
Renewable energy content

We notify you — you have 5 days to cancel

If we find a plan that saves you at least $5/month, we email and optionally text you immediately. The notification includes the new rate, supplier, projected savings, and switch date. Reply CANCEL within 5 days and we won't proceed.

📧 Example notification you'd receive:

"Hi Alice, great news! We found a better electricity rate for you. Switching from Direct Energy (11.8¢/kWh) to Spark Energy (9.5¢/kWh) will save you $28/month ($336/year). Switch date: May 1, 2026. You don't need to do anything — we'll handle it automatically. Reply CANCEL within 5 days to opt out."

We handle the switch — zero effort from you

Our automated system submits the enrollment request directly to the new supplier 30 days in advance. The supplier notifies your local utility, and the switch is processed during your next billing cycle. Your electricity never turns off.

⚡ Important: Switching suppliers only changes who generates your electricity — not how it's delivered. The power lines, your local utility's emergency services, and your physical supply remain completely unchanged.

Savings appear on your bill — we take our share

Your new lower rate is reflected on your next electricity bill. We automatically calculate the savings versus what you were paying, and deduct our 20% fee via the payment method you provided. You see the savings, we see our share — completely transparent.

If we don't find a better rate, we don't switch — and we don't charge anything.
