PanelPulse

PanelPulse is a mobile + web app that detects solar underperformance and points to likely causes using inverter data and local weather. Homeowners connect their inverter (SolarEdge/Enphase/SMA where available) or upload monthly production exports. The app normalizes output against irradiance and temperature, then flags anomalies like sudden string drops, gradual soiling losses, shading changes, or inverter clipping. It translates confusing charts into plain-language actions: “Clean panels this week,” “Tree growth is reducing output,” or “Possible failed optimizer—call service.” It also tracks ROI impact in dollars, estimates lost kWh, and keeps a maintenance log with reminders. This is not a magic ‘AI saves you’ tool; it’s a practical monitoring layer for people who already have solar but don’t notice problems for months.
