Is your team overwhelmed 
by its current workload?

You have a mandate to modernize the grid, but you’re stuck fighting legacy battles.

  • Manual Workflows: Are you copy-pasting data between disconnected tools?
  • Fragile Spreadsheets: Do you worry one broken formula could invalidate a study?
  • Reactive Fire-Fighting: Does it feel like you are always catching up, never looking forward?

It shouldn’t be this hard to do the work that matters. You deserve tools that move as fast as you do.

We’re Engineers, Developers, Product Thinkers, AND Grid Geeks.

Most software companies don't understand the grid.
Most grid consultants don't understand software.
We are the rare team that speaks both languages fluently. We understand the frustration of broken models and opaque data. That’s why we built a team of experts dedicated to one mission: helping utilities modernize their study workflows.
