How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

Technician submits survey data via a mobile form or email. The automation platform detects the submission and extracts key measurements, roof specs, and customer contact details.

2. Validate and Enrich Survey Data

The automation reviews the survey data for completeness and accuracy, flags any missing fields, and cross-checks measurements against typical solar site parameters. If data is incomplete, the automation requests clarification from the technician.

4. Calculate Pricing and Incentives
