One tool for the whole job
Combine scopes in one project and the package follows: the single-line diagram, the load calculation and the checklist all update together.
Everything a permit package needs
Built from the plan checker’s point of view: the right sheets, the right calculations, the right notes, and nothing missing.
AHJ requirements, researched for you
Ask for a jurisdiction and ePermit reads its published handouts, ordinances and utility rules, then returns a requirement list with every source cited so you can verify it.
Code calculations, shown step by step
Conductor sizing, the 120 % busbar rule, service load, string sizing, voltage drop, EV circuits and energy-storage checks per the 2025 California Electrical Code, each with its method on the calc sheet.
Drawings generated from your inputs
Cover sheet, site plan, single-line diagram, calculation sheet, label schedule and roof plan render from the project data. No CAD work for standard jobs.
Jurisdiction and utility checklists
Every project carries the submittal checklist for its AHJ and utility, with the items the package already satisfies ticked off automatically.
Equipment catalog with listings
Modules, inverters, batteries, gateways, chargers and load-management devices with their listings and spec sheets, ready to drop into a project. Add your own products in the app or through the API.
Phone intake for the field
Field techs photograph the service, the panel and the roof from a guided phone flow that keeps working offline and syncs when the signal returns.
Narratives and pre-check
Scope narratives and plan notes drafted for you, plus a pre-check that flags what a plan checker would question before you submit.
Built for a team
Roles for office, designers and field techs, two-factor sign-in, an audit log on every change, and English or Spanish per user.
From address to package in four steps
Most of the work is already done when the project opens: the jurisdiction, the utility and the parcel come from county records.
Start the project
Enter the address and the scope. Parcel data and the jurisdiction come from county records, and the AHJ requirements are already attached.
Pick the equipment
Choose modules, inverters, batteries and chargers from the catalog, or send a field tech to capture the site on a phone.
Review calcs and drawings
Calculations, the single-line diagram, labels and the checklist generate from the inputs. Adjust and regenerate as often as you like.
Download and submit
Export the package as one PDF with the sheets in plan-check order and submit it through the jurisdiction’s portal.

Questions
What contractors ask before they start.
What is an AHJ research run?
One run asks ePermit to research a jurisdiction (the AHJ) for a set of scopes. It reads the published handouts, ordinances and utility rules and returns a requirement list with cited sources, which you review and save as the jurisdiction’s profile. The profile is reused by every project in that jurisdiction, so most companies need only a handful of runs.
Does ePermit guarantee that my permit is approved?
No. ePermit produces the package; the licensed contractor remains responsible for the design and the submission. The calculations and research are aids for a qualified person to review, and every number and source is shown so you can check it.
Which jurisdictions are covered?
ePermit ships with a directory of Bay Area jurisdictions and utilities and can research any California jurisdiction on demand. The calculations follow the 2025 California Electrical Code.
Do I need a contractor license number to sign up?
No. Sign up with your company name and email. You can add your license and a signature later; they appear on the cover sheet when present.
Can my field techs use it?
Yes. Field techs sign in on a phone with a one-time link, see only the projects assigned to them and walk through a guided photo intake that works offline.
Can I cancel?
Yes. Plans are month to month or yearly and can be cancelled from the billing page. After a plan ends you move to Pay per plan set: your projects stay, you keep building, and you pay only for the plan sets you download.
Is my data shared with other companies?
No. Each company’s projects, customers, catalog additions and files are isolated. The platform only sees usage totals.
Is ePermit available in Spanish?
Yes. Every user picks English or Spanish. The permit package itself is produced in English, as jurisdictions expect.
