how do i know if my electric bill is wrong, it looks too high
My wife always did the bills. Now they all land in my email, and I open each one scared I'll miss something.
My bills get checked, and I only hear about them when something's wrong
For A 71-year-old widower who lives alone. His wife always did the bills, and now they all come by email.

The message that came on a Tuesday morning
Hello Peter. Your electricity bill came this morning: £184.20, due 14 October. It's usually about £95. This time they didn't use a real meter reading, they guessed. Send them a photo of your meter and it should come down. Your gas, water and phone bills this month are fine.
This arrives on its own. Nobody opened anything.
How it was before. He opened every bill, stared at the numbers, and could not tell if they were right. For anything more, he had to ring his son or pay someone to look.
What they said, out loud
Every time a bill comes into my email, have a look at it for me. If it's higher than usual or something looks wrong, send me a message on my phone. Otherwise leave me in peace.
What Oravio did, on its own
- With his permission, it looked through his email and found a year of bills: electricity, gas, water, phone and council tax.
- It noted what each one usually costs, month by month.
- It set itself to read every new bill the moment it arrives.
- It set up a text to his phone, sent only when a bill is off, with what to do about it.
How long it took: About ten minutes, while he made a cup of tea.
Why a chat is not enough
A chat only answers when Peter asks. He wanted his bills read the moment they arrive, with a text only when something is off, even on days he never opens his email.
Who else this same thing is for
- A student in her first flat, sharing bills and never sure who owes what
- A busy mum with three kids and no time to open a single envelope
- A plumber working alone, with supplier invoices piling up in his inbox
- A daughter who looks after her elderly mother's bills from another town

How this page came about
Nobody wrote it by hand. Oravio built it on its own.
- It looked for the sources and opened them one by one: the ones that do not answer never get in.
- It wrote the formulas and tried them on a worked example: if the maths does not add up, the page never goes out.
- It laid the page out and put it online all by itself, with nobody touching a key.
It is the same work it does for the people who use it: you say what you need in plain words, and it gets done while you are doing something else. A page like this one, on your own numbers, included.
And from here on, without you asking again
From now on, every new bill will be read the day it arrives. If it's too high, based on a guessed reading, or charged twice, Peter will get a text saying what to do. If everything is fine, he'll hear nothing at all.
This page is one thing out of hundreds. Oravio lives on your own server, on your computer, phone and tablet: it remembers for years, works at night and keeps doing your jobs while you do something else. It takes a minute to switch on.
You can ask Oravio
You'll only hear about your bills when one needs you
Oravio is an AI operating system: you say in plain words what you need and it actually does it — it answers your customers for you, keeps your books, checks every night and only calls you when it matters.
For example, you can write: «Every time a bill comes into my email, have a look at it for me. If it's higher than usual or something looks wrong, send me a message on my phone. Otherwise leave me in peace.»
