What is UtilityControl?

UtilityControl is an AI-powered utility meter monitoring and management system designed for tracking consumption, analyzing usage patterns, and calculating costs across multiple locations. It supports electricity, water, gas, and heating meters with intelligent analytics, automated bill processing with OCR, and smart insights.

How does the AI assistant work in UtilityControl?

The AI assistant in UtilityControl allows you to ask questions about your utility consumption in plain language. You can ask questions like 'What's my usage this month?' or 'Which meter costs the most?' and get instant, intelligent answers based on your actual meter data. The AI understands your consumption patterns and provides personalized insights.

Can UtilityControl automatically extract data from utility bills?

Yes, UtilityControl uses advanced OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology to automatically extract key information from utility bills. Simply upload a photo or PDF of your bill, and the system extracts dates, amounts, usage values, account numbers, and billing periods. The AI then checks consistency between your bills and meter readings.

What types of meters does UtilityControl support?

UtilityControl supports electricity, water, gas, and heating meters. Each meter can be configured with custom names, units of measurement, meter numbers, and descriptions. The system can track any utility type that uses cumulative readings.

How does the daily usage calculation work?

UtilityControl uses advanced interpolation algorithms to calculate daily usage even when readings aren't taken every day. The system distributes consumption between reading dates, providing accurate daily usage estimates for trend analysis.

Can I import meter readings from CSV files?

Yes, UtilityControl supports CSV import for efficient bulk data entry. You can also export readings to CSV for backup, reporting, or integration with accounting systems. The system supports flexible date formats and automatic validation during import.

What analytics features are available?

UtilityControl provides three powerful chart types: Usage Over Time (linear time axis), Daily Usage (bar chart with interpolated values), and Daily Cost (cost visualization). You can filter by week, month, 2 months, 3 months, or year for flexible analysis.

Is UtilityControl available on mobile devices?

Yes, UtilityControl is available as an iOS app for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. An Android version is coming soon. The web application is also accessible from any browser, and all platforms sync seamlessly.

How does cost tracking work?

You can configure cost per unit and currency for each meter. The system automatically calculates daily costs based on daily usage and the configured cost per unit, allowing you to visualize cost trends alongside usage patterns.

How accurate is the OCR bill extraction?

UtilityControl uses Google Cloud Vision API and advanced AI-assisted parsing for high accuracy OCR extraction. The system provides confidence scores for extracted data and allows manual review and correction. For bills with low confidence scores, the system flags them for review.
