Problem
Commercial real estate owners often lack comprehensive insights into their properties' energy consumption patterns, making it difficult to identify inefficiencies and reduce costs. Existing methods for energy data collection and analysis are complex, time-consuming, and fail to account for key variables like weather and occupancy.

The platform automates data aggregation from utility bills, including tenant-paid bills, and integrates external data sources such as weather patterns and occupancy records. By applying machine learning algorithms, Citera identifies consumption patterns, benchmarks building performance against industry standards, and pinpoints opportunities for energy savings. The platform delivers actionable insights through a user-friendly interface, enabling property owners to optimize energy usage, reduce operating costs, and enhance property value.
