AI Quote Agent for Solar: Automate Quote Generation & Lead Qualification
Solar installers waste 8–12 hours per week manually responding to quote requests, gathering site specifications, and calculating system costs across multiple communication channels. Our AI Quote Agent handles this entire workflow automatically, capturing customer location, roof characteristics, energy consumption patterns, and equipment preferences through natural conversation.
Your team gets qualified leads with complete project data pre-populated in your CRM, equipment lists finalized, labor and material costs calculated, and incentive information prepared—ready for your sales team to close. No spreadsheets, no back-and-forth emails, no duplicate data entry.
What it does
The agent engages customers through web chat, phone, or email, asking clarifying questions about their property, energy needs, and budget constraints in real time. It validates roof measurements, cross-references local incentive programs and net metering policies, calculates equipment specifications and total system cost including labor, then generates a branded PDF quote. The agent flags high-intent leads, schedules site visits, and pushes all captured data directly into your CRM system.

Use cases
Integrations
The AI Quote Agent connects to your CRM (Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive), solar equipment databases and supplier APIs for real-time pricing, utility rate and incentive lookup services (DSIRE, state/federal tax credit databases), Google Maps and roof measurement APIs, financing partner platforms, and your email and SMS systems for quote delivery and follow-up. Custom integrations with legacy estimating software are also supported.
Who it's for
This agent is built for solar installation companies with 5+ employees that receive at least 20 quote requests per month and want to reduce quote turnaround time and manual data entry. It's ideal for teams struggling with seasonal volume spikes, managing multiple locations, or losing leads due to slow response times. Choose this agent if your sales team spends more time on administrative work than closing deals.
Frequently asked questions
Can the agent handle complex roof designs or shading scenarios?
Yes. The agent asks detailed questions about roof orientation, slope, shading from trees or buildings, and can request customer photos. For complex sites, it flags the lead for manual assessment and generates a preliminary quote while scheduling a professional site visit. It errs on the conservative side for production estimates.
How does the agent stay current with changing federal and state incentives?
The agent queries live incentive databases and updates automatically whenever federal tax credits, state rebates, or local utility programs change. You can also manually override incentive values in the agent settings to reflect private financing deals or partnerships.
What if a customer's energy bill or roof details don't match our equipment database?
The agent flags unusual or out-of-range answers during the conversation and asks clarifying questions in real time. If data is still inconsistent, the quote is marked for manual review before delivery, and your team can adjust specifications or request additional information from the customer.
Can the agent generate quotes in multiple languages?
Yes. The agent can be configured to conduct conversations in Spanish, Portuguese, and other languages relevant to your service areas. Quote documents are also generated in the customer's preferred language.
How does the agent integrate with our existing CRM?
The agent connects to your CRM via standard APIs (REST, Zapier, or native connectors for Salesforce and HubSpot). All captured data—customer contact info, property details, quote amounts, and follow-up tasks—syncs automatically without manual intervention.
What happens if a customer wants a quote for battery storage or a hybrid system?
The agent can assess battery backup needs by asking about critical loads, outage resilience, and peak usage times. It then calculates a hybrid system with appropriately sized battery capacity and provides separate cost breakdowns for solar, storage, and integration labor.
Can we customize the questions the agent asks?
Fully. You control the conversation flow, which questions are required vs. optional, and how answers affect sizing and pricing. You can also add questions specific to your service area, equipment preferences, or company policies.
What training or setup does my team need?
Minimal. Your CRM and equipment database are connected during a 2–4 hour onboarding session. Your sales team receives a 30-minute walkthrough on how to follow up with AI-generated leads and how to review/adjust quotes if needed. The agent requires no ongoing training to operate.
