A reconciliation engine that handles reconciliation end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Aimed at solar owner-operators, going after the low-value tail everyone else skips.
In short: Automated Reconciler for Solar is a reconciliation engine aimed at solar owner-operators, covering reconciliation. It scores 71/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by open field (88) and held back by timing (54). Typical pricing is $2.7k–$48k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a quarter for $14k–$43k.
Solar teams lose two ledgers that never agree and nobody can say why. The work sits between two systems that were never designed to talk. It scales linearly with headcount, so growth makes it worse rather than better.
Reconciliation handled by a reconciliation engine, with a human signing rather than writing. Revenue is per-project, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
Trust has to be earned before anyone lets this run unsupervised.
