The problem

Energy bills are confusing — and the call center pays for it.

Customers struggle to understand what they owe and why — supply vs. delivery charges, due dates, autopay, and assistance programs are scattered and jargon-heavy. The confusion drives anxious payments, missed due dates, and a flood of support calls.

01

Opaque charges

Previous balance, supply, delivery, taxes — broken out in ways customers can’t parse.

02

Payment mistakes

Unclear due dates and autopay status lead to duplicate or missed payments.

03

Costly support

Every unanswered question becomes a call to the contact center.

The solution

A bot that explains the bill, line by line.

We built Iris, a conversational Bill Insights Bot embedded in the ComEd web and mobile experience. Iris walks the customer through their bill in plain language — explaining each charge, surfacing the due date and autopay status, flagging duplicate-payment risk, pointing to assistance programs, and answering usage questions on demand.
