DemandQ, a provider of energy management solutions, announced today the launch of Maxwell, a free AI-powered tool that makes electric utility bills simple for anyone to understand. By ingesting and interpreting electric utility bills, Maxwell provides insights into costs, rates, usage patterns, and savings opportunities that would otherwise require hours of manual analysis.

Electric bills have grown increasingly complex, with esoteric rate structures, demand charges, and time-of-use pricing that can confuse even the most seasoned energy professional. Maxwell eliminates this complexity by using AI to break down every component of an electric bill and translate it into actionable data and intelligence.

"We built Maxwell to reduce the time energy professionals spend on bill analysis," says Sital Khatiwada, Director of AI Automation Engineering at DemandQ. "Instead of manual spreadsheet work, Maxwell lets you see exactly where your energy is going and how to save. It's about making sophisticated analysis accessible to everyone, for free."

Maxwell Analyzes Bills Using Utility Rate Knowledge Base

The tool anchors insights in users' specific billing data and DemandQ's proprietary knowledge base of electric utility rates, tariffs, and programs to provide results energy professionals can trust and act upon with confidence.

Comprehensive Bill Intelligence

Maxwell provides three core capabilities designed to address the most pressing questions energy managers face:

• Cost Analysis: Maxwell explains why bills are higher or lower than expected, breaks down all charges and fees, and enables comparison across billing periods to identify trends and anomalies.
• Usage Pattern Recognition: The tool analyzes daily and seasonal energy consumption trends, identifies peak usage and their drivers, and quantifies weather impact on energy costs.
• Savings Opportunity Identification: Maxwell evaluates Time-of-Use (TOU) rate plans to calculate potential savings, identifies applicable Demand Response (DR) programs, provides energy efficiency recommendations, and surfaces available rebates and incentives—all grounded in the user's actual electric utility data and verified rate information.

Immediate Access, No Barriers

Unlike traditional energy management platforms that require significant investment and implementation time, Maxwell is available immediately at no cost. Users simply upload their electric bills, and the AI engine goes to work, delivering comprehensive analysis in minutes.

The tool is particularly valuable for facility managers overseeing multiple locations, energy consultants serving diverse clients, and organizations looking to reduce their carbon footprint while controlling costs.
