Track all your utility bills
One person on X, @RE_Notion, says Muse logged into all their utility accounts, saved every bill it could find to Google Drive, and logged cost and usage with links in Notion. Utility bills from electricity to internet were covered, but the post gives no account count and no detail on how each login was handled.
What you can get
What it is
Saved bills with a cost and usage log
A saved copy of your recent bill from each utility account, in the storage location you choose, with cost and usage data logged and linked back to each bill.
It came back right when
- Every listed utility account has a bill saved in the location you specified.
- Cost and usage data in the log links back to the correct bill.
- No account access decision was made without your say.
The checks are editorial, not from the source.
- List providers and accessStops for your approval
Every utility account to cover and how access is handled.
- Pick storage and log format
Where bills are saved and what fields the log tracks.
- Run the first pull
Download, save and log bills across the listed accounts.
- Check the first batchStops for your approval
Compare saved bills and logged numbers against your own accounts.
Editorial, not from the source
Works when
- You have several utility accounts and want one place with bills, costs and usage.
- You're comfortable deciding how account access is shared or stored.
- You want a log to reference later, not a one-time download.
Does not work when
- You're not comfortable sharing login access to financial or utility accounts.
- A provider requires in-person or phone verification that can't be automated.
- You need bill disputes or error-catching, not just a saved copy.

The source case
On X, @RE_Notion reports having Muse log into all of their utility accounts, download every bill it could find, save the bills to Google Drive, and log cost and usage data with links to each bill in Notion, covering electricity, gas, water, trash and internet among others. The post says this would have taken hours to do manually, but gives no count of accounts, no time Muse took, and no detail on how login access was handled for each provider. This is one attributed report, checked on 2026-10-09, describing one person's own account setup, not a guarantee every utility provider works the same way.

What you need
Editorial, not from the source
You supply
- List of utility providers and account names
- Where bills should be saved and data logged
Connected
- Login access to each utility account
- The storage location (e.g. Google Drive, Notion)
Approved by you
- Your decision on how account credentials are handled
- Your review of the first batch of saved bills and logged data
How to try it
Editorial, not from the source
- List every utility account you want covered: electricity, gas, water, trash, internet, and any others, with the provider name for each.
- Decide how account access is handled: shared logins, a password manager, or whichever connection method you're comfortable with.
- Say where bills should be saved and where cost and usage data should be logged, including the format you want.
- Check the first batch of bills and data against your own copies before relying on the log going forward.
Decide how account access works first
Before Muse can pull a single bill, it needs a way into each utility account, and that access decision is yours to make deliberately rather than by default. The source report describes logging into every utility account to download bills for electricity, gas, water, trash and internet, but says nothing about how that access was granted or whether any provider required extra verification like a security code. List every provider you want covered first, then decide whether you'll share logins directly, use a password manager, or set up a narrower connection if one provider supports it. Treat this step the same way you would for any financial account: know what access was given, and be ready to revoke it if your plans change. Skipping this step is the most common way a bill pulling task goes wrong later.
Pick a storage and log format you'll actually use
A pile of saved files is only useful if you can find what you need later, so decide where bills should land and how cost and usage data should be logged before the first run. The source report mentions Google Drive for the bills themselves and Notion for cost, usage and links back to each bill, which is one workable split but not the only one. Pick a folder structure for the bills, by provider or by month, and a log format with fields that match what you actually want to track over time: amount, due date, usage if the provider reports it, and a link to the saved bill. Decide this upfront rather than letting the first run define a format you then have to redo later on.
Check the first run before you trust the log
The report says this task would have taken hours to do manually, which is plausible given how many separate logins are involved, but it says nothing about how many accounts were actually covered or whether every bill downloaded correctly. Treat the first batch as a test: open each saved bill and compare it against your own account, confirm the logged cost and usage numbers match, and check that the link from the log back to each bill actually works. This log doesn't dispute charges or catch billing errors on its own; it only collects and organizes what's already on each account. Once you've confirmed one full cycle works correctly, later runs become a quick spot check rather than a full review every single time.

Limits and confirmation points
Limits to confirm
- One attributed report. It names the categories covered (electricity, gas, water, trash, internet) but not the number of accounts, providers, or how long the job actually took.
- The post doesn't say how account access was handled for each provider or what happens if a provider requires extra verification like a security code.
- This logs and stores what's found; it doesn't flag errors on a bill or dispute a charge, which are separate tasks.
- Sensitive account access is involved. Decide upfront how logins are shared or stored, and review the first run before trusting the ongoing log.
Stop and check
Editorial, not from the source
- Before starting: decide how account access is handled and list every provider to cover.
- After the first run: check saved bills and logged data against your own records.
- Ongoing: confirm new bills keep landing in the same log as they come in.
If it goes wrong
Editorial, not from the source
- A provider blocks or flags the login
- Check whether extra verification is needed and handle that step yourself; the source report doesn't describe how any provider's security was handled.
- A bill is missing from the log
- Check that account's login still works and that the bill is actually available online; some providers only post bills after a short delay.
- Cost or usage numbers don't match your own bill
- Compare the logged number against the bill itself line by line before trusting the log for budgeting.
Common questions
Can Muse log into all my utility accounts at once?
One user reports having Muse log into accounts for electricity, gas, water, trash and internet, download bills, and log cost and usage data. The report doesn't say how many accounts or how access was granted for each.
Where do the bills get saved?
In the source report, bills went to Google Drive and cost and usage data with links went to Notion. Pick whichever storage and log format works for you.
Does this catch billing errors or dispute charges?
No. This collects and organizes bills and data; catching an error or disputing a charge is a separate task.
How is account access handled?
The source report doesn't say. Decide for yourself how logins are shared or stored, and treat utility account access with the same care as any other financial account.
How do I know the log is accurate?
Check the first batch of saved bills and logged numbers against your own accounts before relying on the log for budgeting.
