EnergyCAP Watts AI is the generative AI engine built into EnergyCAP for utility management, energy management, and utility bill analysis. Watts chat is the first dedicated feature powered by Watts AI, giving users a plain-language way to ask questions and get quick answers from their EnergyCAP data.

Unlike general-purpose AI tools, Watts AI is grounded in your organization’s own utility bills, meters, submeters, sites, projects, rates and tariffs, building data, location, emissions, and financial records — backed by EnergyCAP’s 45+ years of utility expertise.

No, but we hope you do! Watts chat gives your team a faster way to ask questions, find answers from the EnergyCAP data you already trust, and spend your time acting instead of searching. It is not turned on for FedRAMP customers, and any customer may turn it off at any time.

General AI tools require you to upload your sensitive billing data into an open network, draw from broad, publicly trained data, and lack the context of your utility, billing, and building history. General AI tools also can’t surface the errors EnergyCAP finds in 1 in 5 utility bills.

Watts AI works inside EnergyCAP and only uses your organization’s centralized, audited, and validated utility data. Customer data is never shared between customers and never used to train external models. Watts also brings the context generic AI tools lack: full bill history, normalized building data, EnergyCAP workflows, and 45+ years of utility expertise.

No. Watts AI works exclusively within your organization’s data and never shares it with third parties or uses it to train external models. Your utility data stays yours. This is a core design principle of EnergyCAP, not just for our AI, making it suitable for organizations in regulated industries like government, healthcare, and higher education.

• Which buildings had the highest electricity usage last month? 
• What buildings have the biggest year-over-year increase in energy cost? 
• Which accounts have the largest month-over-month cost increase? 
• Show me all bills posted to this account in the last 90 days. 
• Which bills were flagged by audit rules? 
• How have our Scope 2 emissions changed compared with last year? 
• Where are the biggest opportunities to reduce utility cost and emissions? 
• Which buildings are underperforming versus the rest of the portfolio? 

Watts AI is built for every team that touches utility data. Energy and facilities managers use it to spot performance changes and clean up building data. Finance and accounting teams use it to quickly explain utility variances and budget performance. Bill processing teams use it to surface anomalies and prioritize audits. And leadership teams use it to get portfolio-level insights without waiting on a report from their energy team.

Watts AI returns answers in seconds. EnergyCAP customers already save an average of 23 hours per month using EnergyCAP, and early users reported saving an additional 12 hours per month with Watts by asking questions directly and eliminating the need to build and run manual reports for routine questions.

EnergyCAP has been applying machine learning, automation, and OCR technology for decades across bill data capture, processing, validation, forecasting, and anomaly detection. Watts AI is the natural evolution of that foundation, combining decades of domain expertise in utility management with modern generative AI capabilities. Watts is not a bolt-on feature; it’s built into the EnergyCAP data architecture.

Watts AI draws from structured data across the EnergyCAP platform, including utility bills, meters and submeters, building and site context, location, weather, energy projects, emissions data, and financial information. Because EnergyCAP centralizes this data in a trusted, validated structure, Watts surfaces reliable answers.

Yes. Because Watts AI draws from EnergyCAP emissions and carbon data, Watts helps sustainability leaders quickly answer questions about Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions performance, identify high-emission facilities, and track progress toward reduction goals.

Watts AI is integrated directly into the EnergyCAP platform and is available to EnergyCAP customers. It is not a standalone product—it works because it’s grounded in the structured, validated utility data that EnergyCAP manages.
