Energy intelligence built by industry professionals for the people making energy decisions every day.
Solar Data Pros was founded in 2016 with a simple goal: bring clarity to energy decisions through better data. At the time, co-founder Leroy Coffman was co-owner of one of California's largest solar sales and service companies, where he saw firsthand the need for clearer, more reliable insights to support both customers and energy professionals.
Partnering with software architect Brad Pirtle, a platform was designed to securely connect complex utility and system data, and transform it into practical insights to improve project outcomes and long-term system performance was built.
The company's first tool, Know True-Up®, began as an internal solution used to improve customer experience and streamline service operations across California's Central Valley. What started as a practical operational tool quickly evolved into a broader energy analytics platform capable of supporting solar professionals across the West Coast and eventually nationwide.
In 2023, Leroy exited the solar contracting industry and Brad stepped away from his Silicon Valley executive software architecture role to focus fully on growing Solar Data Pros and expanding its energy intelligence platform.
Together, Leroy and Brad bring more than six decades of combined entrepreneurial and technical experience. Supported by a talented in-house development team, Solar Data Pros has built a secure, scalable platform that serves energy professionals across the country.
Every insight we provide is grounded in real utility data — no estimates, no guesswork. Decisions made on accurate data lead to better outcomes for everyone.
Our founders came from the solar industry itself. Every feature we build is shaped by real professional experience — not assumptions about what the market needs.
We invest in secure, scalable infrastructure because the professionals who rely on SolarFax® need a platform that's always available and always accurate.
