Sunrun solar did not do a good job on our roof

Dealing with the SunSystem Technology -> NovaSource -> Otovo buyout nightmare. Stuck in an AI support loop and billed $299 despite a 20-year warranty. Any contacts or advice?

Built an all-in-one Solar Inspect & Analytics App (Imagery Defects, Telemetry, PPA Tracker, GPX/GPS, Risk & Revenue Math). Looking for O&M / Field Pilots to test.

Hey everyone,

I’ve been working on a comprehensive application designed specifically for Field Pilots, O&M teams, and Regional Fleet Managers to streamline solar asset inspection and financial analysis. Instead of bouncing between three different software tools to extract flight data, run defect detection, and calculate financial impact, I wanted to build something that handles it all under one roof.

You can check out the platform directly at: pontaralab.com
Here is a quick breakdown of what the application does right now:

Imagery Defect Detection: Automated computer vision processing to spot anomalies and hot spots.
Video & GPS Extraction: Upload your inspection videos; the app automatically pulls the telemetry, GPS coordinates, and spatial data.

GPX/Telemetry Syncing: Easily overlay and align your drone flight tracks (GPX) with your visual and thermal inspection data.

AI Copilot & Diagnostic Summary: Ask questions directly based on your inspection results. The AI copilot will break down complex anomalies, explain specific data points, and generate an immediate diagnostic summary of your report.

Risk Scoring: Automated risk calculations categorize findings into Critical, Medium, and Healthytiers so you can see where your operational liabilities are at a glance.

Actionable Maintenance Recommendations: The app converts raw data and risk scores into specific, field-ready maintenance recommendations so your field crews know exactly what needs to be fixed.

PPA & Revenue Calculations: Input your Power Purchase Agreement rates to see exactly how much cash you are losing from specific defective strings or down inverters.

One-Click Report Downloads: Clean, stakeholder-ready data exports in either PDF (for management/clients) or CSV (for deep data crunching and CMMS integration).

Who I’m looking for:
I’m looking for a few O&M firms, asset managers, or regional drone pilots who want a simpler workflow and are willing to take a look at a live demo.

Pricing:
I am keeping pricing highly reasonable and flexible for early adopters, as my goal right now is to prove out value in the field and tailor features to actual day-to-day fleet workflows.
If your team is managing a fleet or flying sites and wants to see a quick demo, head over to pontaralab.com, drop a comment below, or shoot me a DM. I'd love to show you around the app and see how we can plug it into your current operations!
