Quick answer
SolarVis is a web platform for roof design, proposals, a CRM and lead tools, with annual plans in euros from €990 for Starter, per its pricing page, checked October 2026. The deciding factor is plan limits: Starter covers projects up to 100 kWp and 150 a year, and the single line diagram editor starts at Grow.

Short answer: SolarVis is web software for solar installers. It covers roof design, proposals, a CRM (a tool to track leads and customers) and lead tools. It has four annual plans in euros: Starter €990, Grow €2,490, Scale €4,790 and Enterprise on request. Each plan sets limits on project size, projects per year and users. SolarVis says on its own site that it has no mobile app. Details checked October 2026.
What SolarVis does
SolarVis describes itself as “an all-in-one platform for solar installers and EPC companies” that brings lead generation, 3D design, proposals and CRM into one workflow (SolarVis home page). Its About page says it started in 2019 as a solar consultancy (About page). The vendor says 1,800+ solar installers use it and 67,500+ projects were designed on it. These are the vendor’s own numbers (free trial page).
The table shows what the vendor documents. Each row names the page.
| Area | What the vendor says | Page |
|---|---|---|
| Roof capture | AI roof detection reads satellite imagery. “Fit to LiDAR” sets height and slope from elevation data. You can also draw the roof by hand and add obstacles and dormers. | 3D design page |
| Panel layout | AI panel placement fills the roof to a panel count, annual production, installed kWp or share of consumption. You can place panels by hand. | 3D design page |
| Shading | Hourly shading for each cell and each bypass-diode group. A PDF shade report is listed; the pricing page lists the shade report from Scale. | 3D design page |
| Strings | Checks of Voc, Vmpp and Isc against inverter limits as you build strings. An “Auto String” option builds all strings in one click; the pricing page lists automated stringing from Scale. | 3D design page |
| Single line diagram (SLD) | An SLD is a simple drawing of how the system is wired. SolarVis builds it from the 3D design and exports PDF or DXF. The FAQ says cable sizing and protection selection “stay with the engineer”. | SLD page |
| Battery and heat pump | Battery modeling for self-consumption, autonomy and arbitrage. Heat pump modeling with COP (how much heat the unit makes per unit of power) by hour. One design can cover PV, battery, heat pump and EV charger. | Battery page, heat pump page |
| Yield | Performance Ratio and P50, P90 and P99 production (the output a plant should reach or beat in 50, 90 or 99 of 100 years). The pricing page says this uses typical meteorological year data. | 3D design page, pricing page |
| Tariffs | Net metering, net billing, feed-in tariffs and time-of-use rates. Pre-built sets for the US, UK, Germany, Türkiye, South Africa, Italy, Spain, France, Poland and the Netherlands, “among others”. | Tariffs page |
| Proposals | 26 configurable pages with your logo, colors and terms. You can send them by SMS, email, WhatsApp or link and see when they are opened. The bill of materials comes from a material database of “90,000+ real components”. | Proposal page |
| CRM and leads | A CRM with contacts, leads and projects. A Lead Generator you can embed on your website through a subdomain or iframe. | CRM page, lead page |
| Project types | Residential, commercial, industrial and agricultural irrigation projects. On-grid, off-grid and zero-injection designs. | 3D design page |
| Data | Cloud servers in Frankfurt, Germany. | Trust Center |

The plan comparison table on the same page adds three details. The shade report and battery arbitrage start at Scale. LiDAR and AI roof tools work “where high-resolution roof data covers the address”. Ground mounts are listed on all plans “on flat ground, without terrain topography”.
The pricing page lists a 7-day free trial. You request it, book a short call, and the SolarVis team switches it on after the call. No credit card is needed (pricing page).

Who SolarVis suits, and who should look elsewhere
It suits you if:
- You want roof design, proposals, a CRM and website lead capture in one web product.
- You sell PV together with a battery or a heat pump and want one design for both.
- You work in a market with a pre-built tariff set, or need an interface in one of 24 languages.
- You run a dealer network. Dealer management is listed on Enterprise.
Look elsewhere, or ask first, if:
- You need a mobile app. In SolarVis’s compare table, the mobile app row reads “No, web-based”.
- You want loans inside the proposal. That page says “SolarVis has no integrated financing: its proposals carry a payment plan, not a loan”.
- You need a permit package. That page says SolarVis “prepares no permit package”.
- You need cable sizing or protection selection. The SLD page FAQ says these stay with the engineer.
- You design projects over 100 kWp, or run over 150 projects a year. Starter does not cover that, so check the plan limits above.
- You need the shade report, automated stringing or API access. These start at Scale.
