The Tesla app
can't do this.

Your Powerwall is $10,000+ of hardware sitting in your garage. The Tesla app gives you a charge percentage and a mode toggle. It has no idea what electricity costs right now — and it never will. PowerPilot fixes that.

Everything NetZero has.
Plus AI.

Built for ComEd's real-time pricing program — not generic TOU schedules. Your Powerwall responds to what electricity actually costs right now, with AI that tells you how to save more.

Live ComEd Pricing

Reads ComEd's actual ¢/kWh from their public pricing API every 5 minutes — not estimated TOU rates. Charge cheap, discharge expensive, automatically.

Scheduled Automations

Set reserve % and operating mode on a daily schedule. Peak/off-peak TOU arbitrage, totally hands-free. Define rules once, let our servers handle the rest.

ANTHROPIC

Enable grid charging below 2¢/kWh

Your 30-day average is 4.8¢ but dips below 2¢ on 6 nights/month. Charging at those times could save ~$4/month.

Raise reserve to 90% tonight at 11 PM

Day-ahead shows a price spike tomorrow 5–9 AM (avg 22¢/kWh). Pre-charging tonight at 1.4¢ avoids ~$1.80 in grid imports.

Switch to Self-Powered at 6 AM daily

Your solar ramps up by 7 AM. Switching at 6 AM captures ~0.6 kWh of early morning production that's currently exported at 1.1¢ instead of offsetting 4.8¢ imports.
