Challenge

Gathering client utility data is manual, slow, and inconsistent.

Solution

Connect client utility accounts once. Nectar collects bills automatically, giving you a continuously updated data set for every client without chasing documents.

Challenge

Rate analysis depends on complete, granular bill data that is hard to assemble.

Solution

Nectar parses every line item (demand, supply, delivery, taxes, fees) across all utility types, giving you the granular data needed for accurate rate comparisons.

Challenge

Client portfolios go stale between engagement cycles.

Solution

Nectar automatically collects new bills as they arrive, keeping every client portfolio current for contract renewals and quarterly reviews.

How Nectar works

How Nectar works — automated utility data workflow diagram

1.Onboard clients by connecting their utility accounts

Set up each client by connecting their utility accounts to Nectar. Automated collection begins immediately. No manual bill gathering required.

2.Bills are parsed with full line-item detail

Every bill is parsed at 99.2% accuracy with demand, supply, delivery, taxes, and fees extracted separately, giving you the granular data needed for rate analysis.

3.Analyze rates, identify savings, compare tariffs

Use parsed bill data to compare current rates against alternatives, identify overcharges, and build data-backed procurement recommendations for clients.

4.Export reports and deliver client value

Generate branded reports, export data to your own tools, or provide clients direct access to their Nectar dashboard for ongoing transparency.

5.Maintain ongoing data for renewals and reviews

As new bills arrive, Nectar keeps client data current automatically. Use the latest data for contract renewals, quarterly business reviews, and ongoing advisory services.

Before and after using Nectar

Dynamic rate & tariff optimization

Nectar breaks down every line item (supply, demand, delivery, taxes, and tariffs), enabling side-by-side comparison of contracts across locations. The platform flags high-cost tariffs and suggests switching opportunities, helping clients renegotiate contracts based on granular usage data.

→ Rate and energy tariff optimization

Maintain full audit trail, always ready for reports

Nectar retains every downloaded bill, parsed charge, portal authentication and timestamp in a secure, SOC‑2 compliant system. This streamlines audits and ensures full traceability of bill to contract alignment.

→ Audit trail

Powerful API that is always ready to process data

Upload pdfs directly to Nectar's API, connect utility accounts, or expose an iframe to connect your clients' accounts. Maintain access in real time and always keep your data up to date.

→ API documentation

Interest & tax charge analyzer

Nectar's line-item parsing identifies embedded interest penalties and jurisdictional taxes. Users can extract and export these values separately for cost recovery and accurate financial accounting.

→ Late fee and tax charge analysis
