## About the product

MeterX is a browser-based **utility metering and billing platform** for South African shopping centres and residential estates, built to ingest high-frequency meter data and produce auditable, tariff-correct tenant bills.

Key capabilities include:
- **1-minute interval metering and ingestion** for landlord incomers and per-tenant sub-meters, with data sent regularly and **gap detection** plus approved estimation.
- **Multi-source attribution** across **grid, solar PV, BESS (battery storage), and diesel genset**, including **grid-presence (Eskom-down) detection** and ATS-aware generator gating so consumption can be billed by actual supply source.
- **Audit and reconciliation** that balances incomer vs tenant and common-area meters (at 30-minute reconciliation resolution), surfaces **exceptions** for gaps, anomalies, and losses before billing, and supports **approval workflows** with **locked periods** and KPI versioning.
- **Tariff engine** with **1000+ NERSA, Eskom, and municipal tariffs** (bespoke supported), covering **time-of-use**, **inclining block tariffs**, **demand charges**, **reactive energy (excess kVArh above 0.96 power factor)**, and **feed-in tariffs**, with line-item **PDF billing advice** and a role-scoped tenant portal.

Available on **Web** (platform and client portal).

Target users include **shopping centre landlords, property owners, estate managers, and operations teams** in South Africa, with **tenants** as secondary users through portal access to their own meter history and bills.

Notable in the South African market context for its focus on **reproducible, audit-balanced billing** across mixed supply (municipal/Eskom plus on-site generation and backup), a large **local tariff library**, and reported recovery of **R 8 million+** in client overcharges through utility check billing since 2018.
