THE CHALLENGE

Routing customers towards the energy plan best suited to their needs requires a wide array of details that have to be manually provided from old utility bills, which can add friction to the customer acquisition process. Simplifying the funnel by reducing the number of manual steps is crucial to foster a better customer experience and achieve higher conversion rates on new customer inquiries.

OUR SOLUTION

Bip supported E.ON in the definition, design and implementation of a new acquisition funnel by developing a serverless Cognitive OCR solution: an information retrieval system working on images and digital energy invoices uploaded by customers. To reduce the number of steps requiring manual data entry, a redesigned onboarding flow has been deployed. The deployed system - based on Bip xTech Cognitive Suite Solution - leverages Google Vision APIs to extract billing and customer information from utility bills uploaded by the customer. Data is processed real-time to define and send a personalized quote fitting customers' needs.

RESULTS

The solution had a deep impact on E.ON's acquisition funnel performance metrics. Drastically reducing manual data entry led to a +184% increase in conversion rate, 7% increase in acquisition to activation rate and an overall 87% of satisfied customers. By leveraging serverless infrastructure, the system is capable to easily absorb traffic spikes generated by marketing campaigns and promotions.
