We're building the energy layer for Canadian homes.
Most Canadian households have no real-time visibility into their energy use. Utilities send monthly bills with totals — no breakdown, no insights, no way to act. Rilowatt changes that.
We're starting in Ontario and Alberta, where time-of-use pricing means the when you use energy matters as much as the how much. Our nodes plug into your panel or outlets and start learning your home within hours.
We're a small team building in public. If you're an energy nerd, an electrician, or just someone tired of paying too much — we'd love to hear from you.
Between consumer gadgets and enterprise software, there's nothing.
Consumer energy monitors (Sense, Emporia) show raw data and call it done. Enterprise systems (Schneider, Siemens) cost $15,000–$50,000 and require a dedicated facilities team. There is nothing built for the homeowner who wants audit-grade data, or the small business owner who wants to know their cost-per-operating-hour.
Rilowatt fills that gap with hardware that installs in minutes and software that turns raw readings into dollar-specific decisions — with ASHRAE-aligned audit reports built in.
Every licensed energy auditor who uses Rilowatt becomes a channel — recommending it to every client before an audit.
The same hardware, at every scale.
We've designed the data model from day one to scale from a single home to a 50-building portfolio. The hierarchy is Account → Portfolio → Building → Panel → Circuit → Reading and that doesn't change whether you're a homeowner or a property manager.
Tier 1 — Residential
NowCircuit-level visibility, dollar-specific insights. Homeowners and renters in Ontario and Alberta.
Tier 2 — Small Business

Tier 3 — Commercial
Years 2–4Multi-panel, multi-building, ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager, and ISO 50001 support for NRCan government funding eligibility.
Tier 4 — Industrial
Years 4–7Machine-level sub-metering, SCADA integration, and on-premise deployment for manufacturing plants and data centres.
