"Why isn't this free?"
Because free sites take commissions from providers. That's a conflict of interest. They're incentivized to rank plans that pay them, not plans that save you. You pay us $4.99 for a mathematically pure, unbiased analysis of the official PowerToChoose database. No kickbacks. No tricks. Just math.

The "1,000 kWh" Trap
Every comparison site shows you prices at exactly 1,000 kWh. But in Texas, your usage swings wildly: 800 kWh in spring, 2,500 kWh in August.
Many "cheap" plans have hidden penalties if you miss that sweet spot. Your rate spikes in the months you use the most power, exactly when you can least afford it.
Texas Residential Usage Pattern
We model this exact curve for your zip code's TDU territory.
We Catch What Others Miss
Price isn't everything. A plan that saves you $5/month but locks you into a $495 cancellation fee is a trap. Our algorithm detects these risks automatically.
ETF Risk Scoring
We calculate maximum cancellation liability and weight it against savings. High-ETF plans get penalized in our ranking.
Provider Quality Filter
By default, we exclude 1-2 star providers. You get savings without sacrificing customer service.
Teaser Rate Detection
Plans with deceptive "Bill Credits" that vanish at certain usage levels are flagged and excluded.
Min Usage Fee: Yes
Min Usage Fee: None
Plan A looks 0.1¢ cheaper, but Plan B saves you $495 in exit risk.
Min Usage: 1,000 kWh
Advertises a $125 credit if you hit 1,000 kWh. Miss it by even 1 kWh and your effective rate jumps to 18¢+.
Min Usage: None
Fixed rate. No thresholds. You pay the same rate whether you use 500 kWh or 2,500 kWh.
Plan C's advertised rate is fake. In spring when usage drops, you lose the credit and pay more than Plan D.
