Platforms for energy and utilities teams

We’ve built a customer portal and a procurement platform for energy and utilities startups, and stayed on after launch.

Redrawn illustration. Not the client’s system.

What our energy clients came to us with

  • A shared portal with separate permissions

    Owners and residents needed one portal, with different permissions.

  • One team for the whole build

    Several contractors would have slowed the procurement platform down.

  • A stack change mid-build

    Constructive switched its front end to Tailwind CSS and Gatsby; the design had to survive it.

How AI is changing energy

  • Data center power demand

What we build for energy teams

Pick the package that fits. Each can add AI under engineer review.

Energy projects

Both startups needed to launch fast, before hiring a full team.

We were not energy people. We didn’t know anything about energy, but we know how to build platforms.

Field software for energy storage

An energy storage company that builds and runs its own sites asked us to design one app for service requests, work orders, site visits and reports.

We mapped the work and built a clickable prototype that carries one job from the first request to a locked site report.

The client is reviewing it now. If it goes ahead, the next step is a production pilot.

How a field job moves through the appFive steps: a request, a work order, a site visit where a reading, a photo and a note are recorded, a review, and a site report. A person approves the work order, and a person issues the report.
