Overview
epilot provides a cloud-based, multi-tenant vertical SaaS platform for the energy sector. It serves energy utilities, grid operators, and energy solution providers as an extended relationship management (XRM) system that digitizes sales, service, grid, and project workflows, including complex products like solar plus storage. The platform offers a 360-degree view of customers, lead generation tools, and partner/customer portals, and runs on a serverless microservices stack (AWS, React, Python) for scalability and security. Its goal is to accelerate digitalization in the energy transition, replace legacy tools, and grow ARR by expanding capabilities, including AI features, for utilities and related players.
