Why Utility Bills Are Confusing
Most electricity bills are correct—they're just difficult to interpret. Rates change, usage varies by season, and many charges aren't intuitive. Utility Check exists to clarify, not alarm.
Common Questions
Is this free?
Yes. The sanity check is completely free and requires no signup. A full bill verification is $19.99 if you want detailed analysis.
Do you store my data?
The sanity check runs entirely in your browser. We don't store your bill amount or usage. We only log anonymized analytics (like "someone in Georgia ran a check") to improve the tool.
Why can't this confirm errors?
Utility bills have many components: base charges, tiered rates, riders, taxes, and adjustments. A simple rate calculation can't account for all of these. Only a full bill review can verify accuracy.
What happens if I upload a bill?
If you choose to upload your bill, we extract every line item, verify the math, compare your rate to local benchmarks, and flag anything unusual. You get a detailed PDF report. We never access your utility account or share your data.
