Affordability Infrastructure
Verify once. Unlock every program.
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Gratava is Groundswell's cloud-based, AI-powered data platform - the Affordability Infrastructure beneath income-qualified energy programs. Roughly 138 million people live in income-qualified households across the United States, and the programs built to reach them are committed and funded - but fragmentation means every program re-verifies the same household, information is re-keyed from one spreadsheet to the next, and participation lags far behind eligibility. Gratava replaces that with a verified foundation: a household proves address, income, and home characteristics once, and that verified record flows across every program they qualify for.
For households, Gratava makes programs find people rather than the other way around, with an intuitive way to access and track energy savings in real time. For program managers, it eliminates administrative burden by automating enrollment, eligibility, and workflows. For utilities and regulators, it delivers compliance, reporting, and transparency as a byproduct of delivery rather than a separate exercise - audit-ready on demand.
Gratava's AI-powered Community Catalysts, now in development, verify eligibility and connect households to every program they qualify for. We start with energy, because energy is urgent - but the same verified foundation extends across every program built to expand prosperity for the whole household.
HOW GRATAVA WORKS
A household proves address, income, and home characteristics once, and Gratava matches that verified record against affordability programs - utility, local, state, and federal. Enrollment, work, and savings are tracked from first contact through completion, and as circumstances change, new programs surface automatically. Every step is logged, so households see their savings, administrators see their programs, and regulators see the record.
Introducing Gratava
Built from a place of gratitude – for the people at the center of this work, and a belief that affordability systems should deliver more – Gratava connects households, utilities, and program partners into one trusted platform.
