Two new Texas brokers launched services that rank every electricity plan for a customer, and one of them uses the home's own smart meter data.

## The facts
- Energy Choice Matters reported on both services on Nov 10, 2026.
- Wattpal tests each Power to Choose plan against the customer's 15-minute smart meter readings. It charges the customer $9.99.
- Wattpal says it takes no commission from REPs. It says its scanner flags credit cliffs, base fees, tier penalties, AutoPay rules and early termination fees.
- A start-up that calls itself an "AI energy broker" registered as a Texas broker the same week.
- On Nov 9, 2026, the president of NRG's consumer business said AI agents are "relatively early" and that NRG has not seen customer behavior shift.
- NRG says more than 80% of its Texas home customers are on term contracts.

## What it means for you
A customer can now see what each plan costs at the home's own use for less than $10.
