Since its launch in September 2024, Portuguese energy price comparison platform Manie has helped consumers save more than €12 million. With over 368,000 simulations, nearly 38,000 supplier switches, and 13,500 autoswitches completed, Manie’s impact is clear.
The startup closed a €1 million pre-seed funding round in early 2025 to fuel its planned expansion into Spain in the latter half of the year. Currently active in Portugal, Manie is also partnering with banks, real estate platforms, and fintechs to embed its tech into broader digital ecosystems.
Manie offers a freemium model: a free plan with quarterly invoice reviews and a premium option (€3.99/month) providing daily, AI-driven analysis to maximize savings via automatic supplier switching. The company is also developing tailored solutions for small and medium businesses.
“We believe saving money should be simple and ongoing,” said co-founder and CEO André Pedro. “These results prove the huge potential of democratizing smarter energy choices.”
