1. A computing device for saving energy efficient setpoints, the computing device comprising:

  • at least one processor; and

    memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing device to;

    detect a change in a setpoint schedule based on setpoint data from a client computing device, the setpoint schedule including one or more setpoints that correspond to different temperature settings;

    determine that the change in the setpoint schedule decreases energy consumption for a user;

    identify a set of setpoint schedules associated with a plurality of climate control devices;

    compare the setpoint schedule of the user to the set of setpoint schedules to determine an indication of an efficiency of energy consumption of the user compared to efficiencies of energy consumption of a plurality of users associated with the plurality climate control devices;

    send data to the client computing device to cause a prompt to be displayed on a user interface of the client computing device, the prompt including the indication and one or more options including an option to adopt the change in the setpoint schedule using the setpoint data; and

    receive an input based at least in part on the prompt, the input including a selection of the option causing a change in the setpoint schedule using the setpoint data resulting in modified operation of a climate control device.
