The Keel engine

Upload the project. Keel handles the workflow.

Everything Keel needs starts with your project documents. It reads the files, structures the project, identifies applicable requirements, and carries that information through permitting and interconnection workflows.

Document Intelligence

Analyzes utility bills, plan sets, equipment documentation, and supporting files to extract application data.

Interconnection Automation

Maps project data into PowerClerk and utility-specific interconnection workflows.

Permit Automation

Prepares jurisdiction-specific permit applications and supporting forms using uploaded project information.

AHJ Intelligence

Compares project information against known AHJ requirements and flags potential conflicts before submission.

AHJ intelligence

Catch potential corrections before the AHJ does.

Jurisdiction requirements can change from one city or county to the next. Keel evaluates uploaded project information against known AHJ requirements and identifies potential conflicts for the operations team to review before submission.
