What's inside

The complete Permit-to-PTO system

Everything a Texas solar SMB needs to move a project from designed to operating — without context-switching between five tools and a stack of PDFs.

Texas-curated AHJ rules

Texas-curated AHJ rules. Not researched on the fly — already known.

Every Texas AHJ in our database has its rules curated, verified, and field-validated by submissions that actually got approved. Rules update as cities update.

Curated, not guessed

Rules sourced from AHJ portals + cross-referenced against approved submissions, not LLM hallucinations dressed up as research.

Trust pedigree on every requirement

Each rule carries an evidence badge — staff-verified, cross-referenced, field-validated — so you know exactly what's been confirmed and what's drafted.

Updates surface fast

When a city changes its checklist or portal URL, our admin tools push fixes within hours — no deploy required, no waiting on a vendor support queue.

AI design import + auto-generated docs

AI design import + auto-generated docs. Aurora, Solargraf, PDFs in. Submittal package out.

Drop in your design from any tool. We extract panels, inverters, batteries, structural details — and turn them into the documents your AHJ wants.

Auto-generated NEC labels, PE letters, single-line diagrams

Per-AHJ checklists drive the right templates. NEC 690.56(C) placards are calculated from your real DC voltage/current, not a guess.

Editable AI drafts before they're committed

PE letters and project narratives draft in the system; review and tweak before the PDF gets stamped — no more surprises in the final package.

Email straight to your PE

Generated artifact ready? One-click email to your structural engineer for stamping, with the full audit log on the project.

Oncor + DFW utility intelligence

Oncor + DFW utility intelligence. Interconnection done right, not bolted on.

TexPTO tracks the utility side of the workflow as a first-class track — separate from AHJ permitting, with its own state machine, requirements, and PTO tracking.

Real PTO tracking

PTO comes from the utility, not the AHJ. We track the actual interconnection lifecycle (application → tech review → conditional approval → witness test → meter swap → PTO) with status updates and date stamps.

Tier-aware requirements

Level 1 vs Level 2 vs Level 3 — the system filters utility requirements based on system size + battery + service amps so you only see what actually applies to your project.

Portal links + contact info one click away

Every AHJ + utility shows portal URL, average review days, contact email, and submission method. No more digging through bookmarks for the right link.

Team workflow + project handoffs

Team workflow + project handoffs. Assign requirements. Track status. Don't drop the ball.

Every checklist item can be assigned to a team member with notes and a status (not started / in progress / blocked / done). Handoffs are visible; nothing falls through.

Per-requirement assignments

Click any item, pick the team member, leave notes. The assignee gets it on their plate; the rest of the team sees the avatar and status at a glance.

Built-in audit trail

Every email, every status update, every artifact upload is logged on the project. Recover from a 'who did this last?' moment in seconds.

One shared job record

Office and field see the same checklist, the same status, the same documents — no forwarded PDFs, no version confusion, no ‘which spreadsheet is current’.
