What VERA does

The office work, off your plate

The gaps between those stages are where homeowners get anxious and deals fall apart.

Proposals that stall

A homeowner compares three quotes for weeks. VERA tracks when they open yours and drafts the follow-up that answers what they asked.

Survey notes nobody writes up

Shading, roof condition, panel capacity, all in your head. VERA drafts the recap from your recording and photos.

Silence while waiting on approvals

Permits and utility approval take time you do not control. VERA drafts status updates from your notes so homeowners are not left guessing.

Milestones billed late

Each stage should trigger its payment. VERA drafts the milestone invoice from the signed proposal when the crew marks a stage done.

Service calls after switch-on

Inverter questions and cleaning requests come in through every channel. They all land in one Inbox, and VERA drafts the reply.

Past customers never offered storage

Your install list is your warmest market for batteries. VERA drafts the offer to customers without storage.

Questions

VERA for solar installers in Tennessee

How does Tennessee withhold income tax from wages?

Tennessee does not tax wages, so there is no state income tax to withhold.

Does VERA file permits, interconnection, or incentive applications?

No. VERA does not submit anything to a building department, utility, or incentive program. It keeps your own project status notes, reminds you what is pending, and drafts homeowner updates about it.

Can VERA build a solar proposal?

VERA prices a proposal from your own rates and components and sends it as a link the homeowner can accept and sign. It does not do system design or production modeling; bring those numbers from your design tool.

Can it follow up on proposals that take weeks to decide?

Yes. VERA tracks when a proposal is opened and keeps drafting follow-ups until the homeowner replies, signs, or you stop it. Each one waits for your approval.

Will VERA tell homeowners anything without me seeing it?

Not unless you create a rule for a specific routine message. Updates, proposals, and invoices are drafted and held for you, and every action is logged.
