Swiss service provider uses Insiders’ AI technology for efficient, automated billing and transparent, auditable energy management. The flexible solution ensures cost optimization and ESG-compliant reporting.
Insiders supports the Swiss service provider Enerprice AG in analyzing incoming invoices for comprehensive energy management. In this process, actual consumption data—for example, for heating oil, natural gas, wood pellets, electricity, and more—are extracted from billing documents, validated multiple times, and consolidated to determine companies’ actual energy consumption. This benefits customers—such as banks and insurance companies, which often manage hundreds of properties—that report specific energy consumption figures in their ESG reporting. Unlike reporting based on estimates, assumptions, or random samples, Enerprice’s energy monitoring is fully auditable, certified according to ISAE 3402, and thus immune to any accusations of greenwashing.
As a second service, Enerprice offers its customers full commercial processing of energy billing. In this case, the numerous individual incoming invoices from energy suppliers are imported, validated, and verified, and—if correct—paid. The customer then receives a consolidated invoice from Enerprice, broken down by consumption point.
Enerprice sets high standards for automation and data quality in energy controlling. On the one hand, quality is a key criterion for ESG reporting. On the other hand, a higher level of detail also provides benefits beyond ESG reporting. For example, detailed reporting makes it possible to compare the energy consumption of various properties over time, and purchase prices, consumption, and cost-saving measures can be optimized in dialogue with the property owners. To ensure the economic viability of Enerprice’s entire business model, it is important to continuously increase the level of automation without compromising on quality.

Against this background, Enerprice decided to implement the e‑invoice pro product from Insiders Technologies. The solution utilizes Insiders’ AI OvAItion and ensures the highest quality in invoice processing. It is highly customizable to meet even specialized requirements. e‑invoice pro is thus a central component of the process. Most recently, Enerprice has also begun using Insiders’ integration of various Large Language Models (LLMs) to further improve data extraction and verification. After just a short time in use, Enerprice observed a significant increase in the automation rate.
With the intelligent data validation provided by e-invoice pro, approximately 100,000 invoices per year are processed automatically, and consumption data is precisely allocated to approximately 42,000 metering points across more than 7,800 properties.
The quality of the entire process—from data capture to consolidation—has been certified by KPMG in accordance with ISAE 3402. Thanks to its high level of automation, the solution relieves the Enerprice team of routine tasks while simultaneously increasing the level of detail in energy reporting. Thanks to end-to-end automation and flexible customization options, Enerprice can further scale its energy controlling and meet new requirements—such as additional energy sources or the extraction of energy product information—quickly.
With e‑invoice pro and OvAItion technology, Insiders demonstrates how modern AI solutions promote long-term business success and ensure transparent, ESG-compliant reporting.
