Demand

One household can't negotiate. Thousands can.

Tell us what you pay and what it would take to move you. We're organizing households market by market — so that when we go to providers, we're negotiating with something real.

Free for consumers. No spam. Your information stays private.

  1. Tell us what you pay, and what would make you stay or switch.

    It takes about two minutes. No account needed to start.

  2. Join households in your area who set their own conditions too.

    Your conditions are grouped with your neighbors', never shown individually.

  3. As the group grows, we take that demand to providers.

    No provider is competing yet — that's what we're building toward. Nothing ever changes without your approval.

Where this is today

The demand comes first.

Providers aren't part of Demand yet, and we won't pretend otherwise. A single household has nothing to negotiate with. A few thousand in one area, who have each said exactly what it would take to move them, is a market worth answering. We're building that first — market by market — before we take it to anyone.

Joining now puts your household in the founding demand for your area.

How Demand works

From entering your ZIP code to deciding on an offer.

  1. Set your conditions

    Tell us what you have today — your provider, what you pay, your speed — and what would change your mind. What would make you stay with them. What it would take to move you somewhere else. Those are usually two different numbers, and the difference is the point.

  2. Your household joins the local group

    Your answers are pooled with other households in your area. You stop being one account with one bill and become part of a block of demand with a known size and known conditions.

  3. The group becomes something worth answering

    A provider spends hundreds of dollars to win one customer through advertising. A group of households who have already said what they want is a far cheaper and far more certain proposition — and that difference is the leverage.

  4. We take that demand to providers

    This is the part that hasn't started yet. When a market is large enough to be worth their attention, we go to providers with the aggregate: how many households, what they pay now, what they're asking for. Never a list of names.

  5. Qualifying offers come back to you

    If an offer meets conditions you set, it appears in your account with the price, the contract, the installation and equipment terms, and what you'd save. If nothing qualifies, you hear nothing. We don't forward marketing.

  6. You decide — or you don't

    Accept it, decline it, or ignore it. Nothing about your internet service changes unless you accept an offer and confirm it. Declining costs you nothing and keeps you in the group.

Why a group can negotiate and you can't

Nothing changes about the service. Only the size of the thing asking for a better price.

One household

$85/mo

One account, one bill, no leverage. A provider can lose you and never notice.

2,500 households

$212,500/mo

$2,550,000 a year

The same households, counted together. That is a number a regional sales team has to answer for.

Individually, every household is one account among millions. Together, they are a market with a price attached.

Illustrative arithmetic based on a typical monthly bill — not current membership.

Your conditions stay yours

The number you'd accept is the only leverage you have. Hand it to a provider and they will simply charge it.

What a provider never sees

  • Your name
  • Your email address
  • Your street address
  • Your exact bill
  • The most you'd pay to stay, or to switch
  • Any single household's record

What a provider would see

  • How many households are in a market
  • What they pay on average
  • How many are open to switching
  • How soon they could move
  • What kinds of terms they're asking for

Illustrative — the shape of what a provider would receive

The one exception, and it's yours to make

If you accept an offer, we share your first name and email with that provider so they can contact you and complete the setup. Nothing else, no one else, and only after you confirm on a screen that says exactly that. Decline, and they never learn you existed.

What happens after you join

Honestly: not much, at first. That's the point.

  1. Your household is counted in your local market, and you can see the group grow.

  2. You can change your conditions, your bill or your provider whenever your situation changes.

  3. Once enough households nearby have joined, you can see what comparable households actually pay for the same service.

  4. If an offer ever qualifies under your conditions, it appears in your account and we let you know.

  5. Your internet service carries on exactly as it is. Nothing changes unless you accept something.

Internet is where we start, not where we stop.

The problem isn't internet. It's that every household negotiates alone against companies that never do. That's true of a phone bill and an electricity bill too.

  • Home internet

    Open now

    Where we're proving it. Service territories are local, so the group is your ZIP code.

  • Mobile phone

    Next

    Carriers are national, so this one isn't organized by where you live — it's one market, and a much larger one.

  • Electricity and gas

    After that

    In deregulated markets households can already choose a supplier. Almost nobody does, and almost nobody switches.

Insurance, streaming, and the rest of the bills that quietly reprice themselves every year. Same mechanism each time: organize the demand first, then go to the market with it.

Only home internet is open today. The rest are what we're building toward — we'll say so plainly when that changes.

Questions people actually ask

Does joining change my internet service?

No. Joining records what you have and what you want. It does not contact your provider, cancel anything, or sign you up for anything. Your service is untouched.

Am I committing to switch providers?

No. Setting conditions says what would make a change worth considering. It isn't a contract and it doesn't obligate you to anything. If an offer meets your conditions, you still decide.

Can my current provider compete to keep me?

That's the intention, and it's why we ask what would make you stay as a separate question from what would make you switch. It usually costs a provider far less to keep a household than to win a new one. No provider is doing this yet — we're still building the demand.

Can a provider see exactly what I'm willing to pay?

No, and this is deliberate. Your price limits are visible only to you. What a provider would receive is the shape of a market — how many households, what they pay on average, how many are open to moving. Individual figures are the one thing that would destroy your position, so they never leave your account.

What if no provider ever makes an offer?

Then nothing happens, and it costs you nothing. Your household still counts toward the size of the local demand, which is what makes an offer more likely for everyone as the group grows. There's no obligation either way.

Do I have to accept an offer?

No. You can accept, decline, or ignore it. Declining takes one tap, keeps you in the group, and means the provider never receives your details.

Will you do this for anything other than internet?

Yes — mobile phone plans next, then electricity and gas, and other bills that quietly reprice themselves every year. Only home internet is open today. Internet is where we're proving the mechanism works, because service territories are local and the group is easy to define; mobile is one national market and a much bigger one.

How does Demand make money?

It's free for consumers and always will be. The intended model is that providers pay when they keep or win a household through the platform — so we earn only when a household chooses something. We do not sell personal information, and we do not rank offers by who pays us most. No provider is paying us yet.

What happens when I accept an offer?

You see the full terms again on a confirmation screen and tick two boxes: one accepting the offer, one authorizing us to share your details with that provider. Then we pass your first name and email to them alone, and you get a confirmation ID. They contact you to complete setup. We never change your service ourselves.

Your bill is individual. Your leverage doesn't have to be.

Enter your ZIP code and see who's organizing near you. It takes about two minutes and costs nothing.
