The same five-minute switch, with the methodology made public.
Most US energy comparison sites are commission-driven and methodology-opaque. The buyer takes whatever ranking comes back on faith. We publish the formula, the exclusion matrix, the commission tier disclosure, and the editorial pipeline so the ranking is auditable. The five-minute switch is the same; the trust posture is not.
Trust posture, head to head
Five posture dimensions where most comparison sites stay opaque and Seenra publishes.
Public
Ranking methodology
Flat
Commission per customer
0%
PII resold
100%
Named bylines
What you actually get from picking Seenra.
Methodology is public
Rate × term × confidence. Eight exclusions. Commission is not an input. Audit our work — see /methodology.
Forever free for households
No subscription, no card on file, no fee at signing or renewal. Read /how-we-make-money.
Trust + security posture published
KMS-encrypted credentials, no PII resale, 72-hour disclosure SLA. /trust documents the full posture.
Named human bylines
Real authors, real bios, public corrections. No "Seenra Team" voice and zero AI-generated body copy.
Same utility, same wires
No outage, no truck roll, no credit pull on residential. The only line that moves on your bill is supply.
5-minute switch, automatic re-quote at renewal
We re-quote you 60 days before term end so renewal happens on your calendar, not auto-rolled silently.
Seenra vs the typical commission-driven comparison site.
| Dimension | Seenra | Typical comparison site |
|---|---|---|
| Ranking formula | Public — rate × term × confidence | Opaque |
| Commission disclosure | Per-tier ranges published | Hidden |
| Exclusion rules | Eight published rules | Whatever pays the most ranks first |
| Editorial bylines | Named, with /authors/[slug] pages | "Energy Team" or AI-generated |
| Corrections policy | Public log, dated | Silent edits |
| Buyer fees | $0 forever | Often a referral surcharge |
| Re-quote at renewal | 60 days automatic | Auto-roll to variable |
| Renewable mix disclosure | Required on every plan we surface | Sometimes hidden |
Four buyer archetypes — what fits, why.
Single-family household, 1,200 kWh/mo
Pain: Bill spikes every winter; never sure if utility default is competitive.
Fit: Lock a 24-month residential plan. Re-quote 60 days before term end. Done.
Restaurant, 50 kW, single site
Pain: Lease renewal in 18 months; CFO wants supply line predictable through the lease term.
Fit: Lock an 18- or 24-month commercial plan aligned to lease term. Commission is flat — supplier choice is yours.
Multi-site retail chain, 12 sites across PJM
Pain: Renewals scattered across calendar; aggregation savings on the table; no single point of contact.
Fit: Multi-site aggregation under one Seenra portfolio. Calendar consolidation. Quarterly review with named account team.
Manufacturing campus, 4 MW peak
Pain: Capacity-period exposure; compliance disclosures; needs supplier with state-level depth.
Fit: Sub-2MW shortlist tooling, capacity-period modelling, REC sourcing transparency. Custom term.
