The UtiliSave engagement model is straightforward: we conduct the audit at our expense, we handle all documentation and filing, and we are compensated only if and when we recover money for you. If we find nothing, you pay nothing.

This is not a promotional offer. It is our standard operating model, built on over 35+ years of confidence in our methodology. We have reviewed hundreds of thousands of commercial account bills. We know what we are looking for, and we know the recovery rate is high enough to make the model work.

“The downside of a utility audit is zero. The upside is a refund and ongoing savings. The required investment is providing access to billing records. There is no rational reason not to have the conversation.”— Michael Steifman, Founder & CEO, UtiliSave

For our clients, the risk calculus is simple: the downside is zero. The upside is a refund check and ongoing savings. The required investment is limited to providing access to billing records and a few hours of initial coordination.

We hear occasionally from prospective clients who say they are 'not sure the savings would be worth the hassle.' Our response: the hassle is ours. We do the work. You review the findings. You decide whether to file the claims. There is genuinely no rational reason not to have the conversation.
