- Solar design software leader extends the power of accurate design to sales 
teams with a suite of new offerings

Aurora Solar, the industry's leading software platform for distributed solar, 
today announced new offerings that enable sales teams to quote, sell, and close 
more deals, faster -- all without sacrificing design accuracy.

For too long, solar sales teams have been stuck relying on design and 
engineering teams to deliver an accurate solar proposal. While some sales teams 
have adopted digital proposal tools to empower frontline reps, these point 
solutions lead to inaccurate designs that require significant rework 
downstream. As a result, sales and operations teams are forced to play catch-up 
in a vicious cycle of change orders, cancellations, and disappointed customers. 
This can lead to large losses for contractors, making solar more costly.

"We were literally changing over a third of our contracts when they would come 
in because of inaccurate production numbers, shading, or both. We've eliminated 
that to nearly zero," said Kenny Klinger, Senior Director of Sales at POWERHOME 
Solar. "This makes our customers happier because we don't have to go back and 
rework contract language with them, and so on, which leads to a couple 
important things: It has helped our retention rates, which then always leads to 
more referrals."

The new Aurora Sell suite provides the only software that fully empowers sales 
reps while maintaining the design integrity needed for seamless downstream 
installation.

    -- Sales Mode: Using a simple, guided workflow, Sales Mode allows reps
       to deliver an engaging buying experience and a dynamic web proposal
       to customers that includes all project details, as well as an
       interactive 3D design and integrated financing solutions. This
       suite of features enables sales teams to respond to customer feedback
       in real-time and close more deals, faster. 
    -- Sales Mode AI: Through proprietary machine learning algorithms, LIDAR, 
       and imagery data, this groundbreaking add-on delivers 3D solar designs
       in 30 seconds with a click of a button -- using only an address and
       one month's energy bill. 
    -- Contract Manager: Sales reps can streamline the closing process with
       this fully-integrated e-signature solution that automatically
       populates contracts with project details and tracks document statuses
       in real-time.

"For years, Aurora has been trusted as the industry leader in solar design and 
engineering, but we had a reputation of not being user-friendly enough for 
sales teams," said Samuel Adeyemo, Co-founder of Aurora Solar. "Our new Sell 
suite fixes that -- at the click of a button, a salesperson can create an 
accurate design and make a slick proposal. It is hands-down the easiest 
solution on the market, but what I love the most about it is that it is still 
accurate: Aurora's sales solutions use the same technology that has been 
trusted for millions of solar projects. The end result is that sales teams will 
sell more solar, and they can trust that what they are selling is precisely 
what they will install."

Enabling sales organizations to deliver accurate proposals at scale is critical 
to lowering soft costs and advancing solar adoption. With these newest 
capabilities, Aurora Solar helps the industry take a critical step forward 
toward a future of clean energy for all.
