inSun

inSun is photovoltaic design software that enables the creation of solar energy projects. The platform integrates legal regulations, manufacturer-validated product catalogs, and country-specific weather data into a single tool. The software features an automatic single-line diagram generator that produces compliant wiring documentation. Maps and drawing tools allow the creation of 3D building models with drag-and-drop functionality. inSun performs shading analysis, electrical design, and static calculations based on local regulations. The platform supports load profile definitions for return on investment calculations. Projects can be exported with performance simulations, DWG files, and diagrams in PDF and DXF formats. A mobile app facilitates project sharing between installers and clients. Documentation is generated using module, structure, inverter, and battery data provided by manufacturers. The output has been validated by Fraunhofer.

Jouleo

Jouleo is job management software for UK solar PV and battery installers. Every job runs from enquiry and quote through survey, installation and handover on one record, so the office, the installers and the customer are working from the same information. Quotes are built from your own pricing rules and kits, with savings figures for the customer. Customers sign and pay their deposit online through their own portal. The field app works offline for surveys, DC testing, photos and sign-off on the roof. Jouleo works out the G98/G99 connection route from the inverters, builds the handover pack, and stops a job moving on until its MCS documents are filed. It also includes 3D roof design with panel layout and shading, a quality management system with risk assessments and method statements, and a checklist for the move to the redeveloped MCS scheme. Built in Northern Ireland with working installers, for small and growing installation firms.

Payaca

Payaca is the CRM, project management and field service system for growing clean tech install businesses: solar, heat pumps, battery storage and EV charging. Run the whole job on one record, from quote and permit to crews, costs and final payment, so nothing is retyped between the office and the van. Sales: a pipeline built around the install lifecycle, multi-option proposals the customer signs online, and deposits taken at acceptance via Stripe. Design in Payaca with Glow (limited release) or import from OpenSolar; the design flows into the quote, the materials list and the purchase orders. Operations: map-based scheduling, a field app that works offline for site surveys, checklists and signatures on site, timesheets, stock in named locations and purchase orders raised from the job. Compliance: permit applications, AHJ inspection records and utility interconnection tracked on the project for US teams. MCS and DNO workflows for UK teams. Finance: job costs while the work is live, invoices from the proposal, payment in the branded customer portal, and two-way sync with QuickBooks and Xero. Agent Dave, the AI built into Payaca, writes your reports, builds your automations (switched off until you check them) and drafts branded documents from your own fields. Full REST API, webhooks and an MCP server. ISO 27001 certified. Runs OVO Solar & Heating's 16-franchise network. Dedicated onboarding and data migration.

Propflare

Propflare is a prospecting platform for solar PV installers and solar panel cleaning and maintenance companies in France. You draw your area on the map: Propflare analyses every house (roof size and orientation, yearly sunshine, existing panels) and rates each roof from A+ to C. For each selected house it prepares a personalised 6-page solar study under your brand (recommended system size, panel layout on the real roof photo, monthly production, savings and payback), sent by post or downloaded as a PDF. Each letter carries a personal code and a QR code: the household views its study online and asks to be called back. One first letter per household, opt-out list honoured, mandatory French legal mentions on every letter. Interface, studies and letters are in French.
