Get the design right, before you’re on-site
Operate within a specialized CAD environment to create accurate 3D models and automated PV designs in record time.
Precise designs, without the guesswork
Create a 3D model of the roof and a complete PV design in just a few clicks, using multiple high-quality data sources – no site visit required. Use AI to accelerate the process, or bring in Expert Design Services when you need extra support.
Impress customers with interactive visuals
Build trust and “wow” homeowners with a model of their actual roof, not a generic estimate. Walk through the design together and make adjustments on the spot, so they can make an informed decision with confidence.
Optimize your workflow from start to finish
Keep your whole team working from the same design, from initial quote through grid connection. Automatic updates and less manual work save time and keep everyone aligned.
LIDAR-based 3D modeling
Design with confidence from day one. Aurora combines multiple LIDAR and imagery sources with integrated parcel data to quickly model complex roof structures in 3D, giving your team a model they can rely on before even visiting the site.
AI-supported, automated design
Intuitive design tools let designers build CAD models by hand, or use Aurora AI to generate the full 3D model in 10 seconds or less. From there, run a detailed shading analysis and let AutoDesigner determine the optimal PV system for every home, automatically.
Seamless post-sales workflow
The design that gets sold is the design that gets installed. Aurora carries the same 3D model from quote through finalized electrical diagrams, so designers and engineers can true-up the details and get to grid connection faster, without rebuilding from scratch.
API integrations and automations
Connect Aurora’s design infrastructure directly into your existing tech stack, so you can automate quoting at scale and build Aurora straight into your own tools and customer journey.
Add your own drone data
Where remote imagery and LIDAR coverage is limited, upload your own drone images or videos to add new data layers. Design from the same workflow you already use, no separate tool required.
Expert help, on demand
For roofs that are too complex, or teams that need extra capacity, leave the 3D modeling to a team of experts who will deliver a precise model within a few hours.
