Upload a bill and MiniLab will read it using deterministic extraction. Digital PDFs use embedded text; scans/images use local browser OCR only when needed.
MiniLab keeps resolved savings separate from conditional models and screened potential value so the headline is not inflated.
MiniLab Watch rechecks the household portfolio when governed source evidence changes. Starting Watch does not give marketing consent.
Compare the best mix of providers with the best complete same-provider bundle. Monthly figures are shown prominently; annual totals remain the governing comparison.
Confirm the actual activation/start date for a recommended promotional mobile or internet plan. Promo Protection starts from this date — not from when you clicked or viewed the offer.
When a tracked mobile or internet promo is nearing its end, the system rechecks fresh plans before the higher ongoing price starts.
Most people can complete this from memory or their bank statement. Enter what normally comes out of your account and how often. Uploading evidence is optional and only improves confidence.
The easiest source is usually your provider app/account because it follows your real recharge cycle. Your phone can also show mobile-data usage, but check the date range because device counters may not reset on the same day as your plan. Looking at the last 2–3 months is better than guessing from one unusual month.
Manual entry is the normal fast path and is enough to calculate a comparison. Verification is optional and can be added later if the customer wants a higher-confidence result.
MiniLab shows what is already ready first, then asks only the next fact that can materially unlock another opportunity.
MiniLab uses these facts to exclude plans that are not available or compatible before any ranking occurs.
MiniLab will not guess this because double-counting controlled-load usage would distort the comparison.
These facts change how plans should be priced. Solar affects export/feed-in value; batteries affect when energy is imported, stored and exported.
MiniLab can screen current South Australian household concessions using verified official rules. This is an eligibility screening, not a government entitlement decision. You do not need to enter a CRN, concession card number or energy account number.
For solar households without a battery, MiniLab can estimate current federal battery support and then run a conservative export-capture ROI scenario.
MiniLab calculates the current Cheaper Home Batteries Program STC entitlement from verified CER rules. The certificate value shown is a reference, not a guaranteed installer discount.
For a personal plan comparison, upload a retailer/meter interval CSV. A full-year profile needs at least 330 days of valid 5, 15, 30 or 60-minute intervals. Shorter history is kept as partial evidence but will not drive personal savings claims.
