process
Drag components onto the canvas — or describe the system and let AI place them. Every wire is sized the moment you connect it.
Run the NEC / ABYC compliance pass. Every violation is flagged with the exact clause and the fix — not a vague warning.
✓ Overcurrent OK — NEC 240.6
!Fuse > 7" from battery — ABYC E-11
Generate the insurance-grade PDF — one-line diagram, BOM with SKUs, full calculation appendix, and a plain-English AI summary.
coverage
The same deterministic calculator drives DC van & RV builds, off-grid cabins and tiny homes, specialty & mobile rigs, small solar+storage, and ABYC marine refits. These are live templates — open any one and start from a working design.

why it holds up
The same inputs always produce the same answer — each one traceable to NEC 310.16, Ch.9 Table 8, 240.6, or ABYC E-11. Auditable, not a guess.
Inspectors and insurers get a formatted report with a one-line diagram and sign-off blocks — not a chat transcript they have to trust.
It is not a P.Eng stamp, and it says so on every page. Built to aid your installer, surveyor, and underwriter — never to impersonate them.
