An installed rooftop solar system on a modern California home

Solar should work the way you want it to, not the way someone wants to sell it to you.

We built Solar Connect to give homeowners back the one thing the solar industry usually takes away: control.

Our story

For most homeowners, shopping for solar is the same broken experience over and over again. You fill out a form online to get one quote and end up with five sales reps texting you for the next three months. Every "consultation" is really a pitch. Every "free quote" comes with a contract waiting at the end.

We built Solar Connect because we've lived that experience ourselves, and we knew it didn't have to be that way. Solar is one of the biggest purchases a homeowner ever makes. It should feel like buying a car online, not getting cold-called by a timeshare salesperson.

So we built a marketplace. One simple intake. Multiple quotes side by side from installers we've already vetted. No commitment, no contracts, no pressure to talk to anyone you don't want to. You stay in the driver's seat the whole way through.

Who is building this

The three of us met working with various installers and found we wanted the same two things: the homeowner in front, and a team measured on what it does together rather than on who closed what. Twenty-one years in residential solar between us, most of it spent inside the sales model this marketplace exists to replace, which is most of the reason we know what is wrong with it.

Pablo Valdivia

Founder & Chief Executive Officer

Eleven years in solar, building some of the most efficient teams in the industry. Pablo has been responsible for more than 10 MW of solar installed. He puts as much weight on culture as on output, and builds teams that root for the group's result rather than their own.

Noah Goellrich

Founder & Chief Product Officer

Five years in solar, known for building services that did not exist at the companies he worked for, and for marketing that teaches homeowners how solar actually works rather than selling at them.

Jonathan Seber

Chief Strategic Officer

Five years in solar, creating and running sales processes for multiple teams. Jonathan's focus has always been training reps to explain how solar affects a customer's home and their community, not just their bill.

What we believe

01

Homeowners come first

Every decision we make is filtered through one question: does this make solar shopping easier and more honest for the person buying it? If the answer is no, we don't do it.

02

Transparency over hype

No inflated savings claims, no high-pressure timers, no "limited time" gimmicks. You see real pricing from real installers in your area, with the math behind every number.

03

Quality installers, vetted

We don't let anyone quote on our platform. Every installer is licensed, insured, and has a track record we've checked. Bad apples don't get to play here.

04

One consultant, the right match

Your details don't get blasted out to every installer in your zip code. Instead, you talk with one of our energy consultants. They learn what you actually need and pair you with the installer who fits. One conversation, no spam.
