Made for homeowners, renters, landlords and property managers who want to understand their consumption and save money. LOG READINGS IN SECONDS • Add a meter reading with the date and time you took it • Electricity, water, gas, heating, cooling and custom meters • Any unit: kWh, m³, kW, BTU and more • Notes on every reading; edit or delete anytime SCAN YOUR METER Take a photo of the meter: the app reads its number and the reading on your phone, offline, and fills in the form for you to check.

SEE WHERE YOUR MONEY GOES • Interactive charts for 24 hours, a week, a month, 3 months or a year • Daily usage and trends reveal spikes and waste • Cost per unit in your currency, with weekly and monthly totals ASK THE AI ASSISTANT Ask in plain language and get answers from your own data: • "How much did I spend on electricity last week?" • "What was my last water reading?" • "What does one kWh cost me?"
