50 years of reading tariffs so you don’t have to
RateAcuity is a team of utility rate analysts in Summerville, South Carolina. We research published electric and gas tariffs across the U.S. and Canada, verify them, and keep them current, so the data behind your decisions is the data in the filing.
Built by people who read filings for a living
Long before “utility rate database” was a product category, our team was doing this work by hand for clients who couldn’t afford to get a rate wrong. The portal and API grew out of that practice: the same analyst rigor, made available on demand to every energy manager, consultant, developer, and utility that needs it.
We’re a consultative solution provider, not just a data feed. When your team hits a strange rider or a filing that doesn’t parse, a person who reads tariffs every day picks up the phone.
