What solar installers should ask before handing back office to AI
Take one ordinary job. A homeowner fills in a web form on a Sunday night.
AI Summary
A typical solar installation request triggers a cascade of manual data entries: a homeowner submits a web form, staff copy the details into a quoting tool, revise the quote multiple times for battery size and inverter availability, and finally re‑enter the job into a management app. On‑site crews capture photos and serial numbers, which office staff later match for STC paperwork, and the invoice is manually entered into accounting. This repetitive handling means a single customer’s information is typed five or six times by different people, creating frequent opportunities for errors such as wrong serial numbers, missed photos or outdated quotes being sent.
