Solutions
What UtilityAI makes possible in CX.
Each use case uses the same appliance-level intelligence layer — so your CX, DSM, and marketing teams operate from the same source of truth.
Proactive Usage Notifications
Alerts that change behavior, not just inboxes.
Generic alerts train customers to ignore you. When every notification says the same thing to the same segment, open rates fall, calls rise, and trust erodes.
- 85% verified CSAT on personalized alert programs
- 2+ quartile JD Power improvement at reference utilities
- 15%+ reduction in CSR churn from reduced inbound volume

High Bill Analyzer & Call Resolution
Resolve the call before the customer finishes explaining.
No more clicking through four systems to piece together a vague answer. Get to the root cause of calls, to make them one and done.
- 50%+ reduction in high-bill calls
- 30% reduction in average call handle time
- Up to 25,000 CSR calls deflected in a single program cycle
Customer Self-Service Tools
Self-service that actually resolves, not just redirects.
Customers who can't explain their own bill don't trust their utility. Self-service built on whole-home averages doesn't resolve that — it moves the confusion online.
- 18% TOU enrollment rates via targeted self-service journeys
- 127% of filed EE targets achieved across deployments
- 1.5 TWh+ in total energy saved
Agentic Automation in CX
AI that acts.
Not just advises.
Bidgely's agentic layer runs the workflows your team currently does manually across every customer touchpoint. From IVR personalization to campaign triggers, agents work continuously without adding headcount.
Agentic Value, Modeled
$3–7M/year
From deflected calls, improved enrollment, and automated DSM workflows
IVR Personalization Agent
Detects the likely call reason before the customer finishes speaking — pulling from their live appliance profile and billing delta. Routes and resolves at the IVR level without a CSR.
Proactive Outreach Agent
Continuously monitors usage patterns and triggers personalized email, SMS, or portal messages before the customer has a reason to call. Picks the right channel and timing for each premise.
Program Enrollment Agent
Identifies program-eligible customers, segments by propensity, and runs targeted recruitment journeys — including follow-ups, re-engagements, and confirmation — without manual campaign management.
GenAI in Customer Experience
Conversations grounded in real customer data.
Bidgely's GenAI layer doesn't run on generic LLM prompts. Every answer — to a customer or a CSR — is grounded in that customer's disaggregated appliance profile.
Energy Assistant (Customer-Facing)
A conversational AI that answers billing and usage questions, explains appliance-level charges, and recommends programs — embedded in your portal, app, or SMS channel. Personalized to each meter, not a generic chatbot.
CSR Copilot
A GenAI assistant embedded in your CSR console. Agents ask plain-language questions and get appliance-level answers, rate comparisons, and next-best actions in seconds. No tab-switching required.
Chart & Bill Explainers
Usage charts and bill breakdowns with embedded natural-language explanations. Customers can tap any bar, spike, or line item and get a plain-English reason — powered by the same disaggregation that drives your CSR tools.
Proven Results
Deployed at scale. Measured at the meter.
