For commercial electrical contractors
Start with a site photo. Shape the concept in one connected workspace, keeping the realistic view, equipment schedule, assumptions, and customer handoff tied together through every revision.
The problem
A site photo becomes a markup. The markup becomes a spreadsheet. The spreadsheet becomes a proposal. Then engineering reconstructs the original intent from disconnected files. Information is lost, assumptions drift, and every revision takes longer than it should.
Enter the project once. Keep the meaning intact.
The working engine
Joulepad began with a browser-based 3D canvas and a near-real-time AI re-render loop. These captures show the mechanic: the site as received, the structured scene, and a realistic preview. The scene carries placement and quantities; the preview makes that intent immediately understandable.
Input
Scene capture
Working preview
Arrange a compact battery and controls lineup, compare it against existing service-area constraints, and keep every placed item connected to a preliminary quantity.

Starting focused
Early access begins with commercial electrical sales engineers and estimators working on outdoor battery-storage and backup-power opportunities. The first workflow keeps the concept, quantities, assumptions, and customer handoff connected instead of rebuilding them after the meeting.
Start with one clear photo and a known site measurement. Joulepad creates an approximate workspace for the commercial concept while preserving the original image.
Mark the proposed equipment area and place generic storage and emergency-power equipment using catalog dimensions. Show the intended arrangement without presenting it as engineered design.
Placed equipment becomes a preliminary schedule automatically. Add project-specific notes, manual line items, and an optional preliminary budget without breaking the link to the concept.
Review the realistic view against the authoritative concept, then issue a fixed project revision containing the site context, equipment, quantities, assumptions, exclusions, and budget. The customer proposal is generated from that record.
The difference
The site photo, spatial concept, equipment placement, quantities, assumptions, optional budget, and issued proposal stay tied to the same project revision. Change the project once; keep each view traceable to the same intent.
The first deliverable
At the customer handoff, issue a fixed project revision that keeps the existing site, spatial concept, preliminary equipment schedule, assumptions, exclusions, and optional contractor-entered budget together. Deliver it without rebuilding the work.
Why this matters
The customer gets a clear proposal. The contractor keeps the connected project—and every decision behind it.
