For San Diego solar & battery installers · the partner lane

Sell the battery and the brain it powers

Every competitor sells backup power and rate arbitrage. You can sell what the stored sun does all day: a private AI employee your customer owns outright — no cloud, no subscriptions, running on one panel's worth of light. SideGuy builds the tech layer. You close more systems.

The quote-table line that wins the deal: "That battery isn't just backup. It runs a private AI that drafts your quotes, answers your documents, and chases your follow-ups — on your own power, owned like the roof is. Nobody else's battery does that."

How the partnership actually works

You sell the story, we build the layer.

Your battery quote includes the AI package as an option. Customer says yes → SideGuy specs the box, sets up private models + a clean interface, wires one real workflow (quotes, paperwork, follow-ups), and supports it. You never touch software.

Operator-honest referral terms.

Flat referral per closed build — disclosed to the customer, because SideGuy's published doctrine is no hidden kickbacks, ever. Or pass it through as a customer discount and win the deal on price. No franchise fees, no exclusivity, no minimums.

The power math sells itself.

Workhorse AI box: 2-4 kWh/day flat out — one 400W panel of San Diego sun. A single home-battery runs it overnight forever. You already sold them the generation; this is the highest-margin thing it can generate.
