About Energy Savings AI

What we do

We help households answer three questions: why the electric bill is this high, what they can realistically change, and whether a purchase or home improvement is worth the cost. The bill check, bill comparison and calculators are free and don't need an account.

What we don't do

• We aren't a utility, an electrician or an energy auditor, and our results aren't a professional diagnosis.
• We don't estimate savings percentages from a questionnaire, and we don't guess appliance-level use from one monthly bill.
• We don't sell your data or pass it to contractors.

Where the name comes from

The "AI" in the name refers to one feature: reading the values on a bill you upload so you don't have to type them. You review and correct those values before anything is calculated. Every estimate on the site comes from published formulas in tested code, explained in our methodology.

Who runs it

Energy Savings AI is published by Gil Media Co. Articles are prepared by our editorial desk, with AI assistance for research and drafting, and checked against the primary sources they cite. We don't have a licensed engineer or certified energy auditor on staff; when a qualified person reviews a page, we'll name them and their credentials on that page. How we work: editorial policy.

Carlos Gil, publisher and editor

Carlos Gil is the publisher of Energy Savings AI. He runs Gil Media Co., which publishes the site, and has worked in marketing since 2008, including as U.S. Brand Evangelist at GetResponse. He isn't an engineer, electrician or certified energy auditor. As editor he is responsible for the site's editorial standards: every page is checked against the primary sources it cites, and pages say when no technical expert has reviewed them.

How the site is paid for

Today the site has no advertising, no paid placements and no affiliate links. If that changes, paid links will be labelled where they appear and explained on how we make money. Money never changes a calculator result.

Professional help

We don't connect visitors with contractors at the moment, and we don't collect contact details for that purpose. If you need an in-home assessment, start with your utility's free programs:

• JEA offers free efficiency assessments by phone appointment.
• FPL offers a free online Energy Survey and Energy Manager.

For anything involving wiring, panels or gas lines, use a licensed professional. Our guide to what online tools can and can't tell you explains when an in-home audit is the right next step.

Other sites we publish

Gil Media Co. also publishes PowerLockdown, which covers preparing a home for power outages. Outage preparation is a separate topic from lowering a bill, and backup power equipment doesn't reduce electricity costs.
