Design solar your way — without changing platforms.

Solo Studio gives solar professionals and high-volume design teams full control over creating, editing, and validating system designs. The same trusted platform our team uses — now in your hands.

One platform. Two ways to work.

Two Ways to Design Solar with Solo Studio

When to Use Your In-House Design Team

  • Want to design solar rooftop from scratch inside Solo Studio with full control and flexibility
  • Need fast design iterations and real-time edits during live sales conversations
  • Want design decisions to flow directly into your proposals and pricing
  • Prefer design work to stay tightly connected to the rest of the sales process

You want your design team to control design in real time, making changes live while working with homeowners. This is the right fit when speed, flexibility, and keeping design tightly connected to pricing and proposals matters most.

When to Use Solo’s On-Demand Design Services

  • Want additional design capacity without slowing sales
  • Need do-demand production support within Solo Studio
  • Want help keeping up with volume spikes or backlogs
  • Want accuracy and speed without adding operational complexity

You need professional design capacity built into Solo Studio without pulling your sales team away from selling. This option works best when volume, complexity, or backlogs require extra support—without adding new hires or slowing deals.
