First-of-its-kind integration streamlines
back-end operations by enabling automated submission of post-sale
documents from installers’ CRMs to Sunlight’s portal, Orange®
Sunlight Financial Holdings Inc. (“Sunlight Financial”,
“Sunlight” or the “Company”) (NYSE: SUNL), a premier,
technology-enabled point-of-sale finance company and Bodhi®, a
leading solar customer experience platform, today announced a new
partnership through which solar installers are empowered to
automatically submit the post-sale documents Sunlight requires via
an integration between Sunlight’s technology portal, Orange®, and
Bodhi’s digital customer experience platform, Bodhi® Pro.
“Sunlight Financial’s new partnership with Bodhi addresses a key
installer pain point, document submission,” said Matt Potere, CEO
of Sunlight Financial. “Our integration with Bodhi will save
installers time and enable Sunlight to access underwriting
materials with greater ease. It’s a classic win-win that will
further simplify and strengthen the Sunlight experience.”
Bodhi’s patented technology platform, Bodhi® Pro, integrates
with installers’ CRMs, project management systems, document storage
services, and monitoring devices. Through the Sunlight-Bodhi
integration, installers that have partnered with both Sunlight and
Bodhi® will no longer have to manually submit project documents to
Sunlight’s proprietary Orange® portal. Going forward, Bodhi® Pro
will automatically submit to Orange® the documentation and solar
system information Sunlight requires to review and approve each
project milestone. In turn, Sunlight’s approval decision will be
automatically reported back to the installer, enhancing operational
efficiency. Bodhi® Pro will also provide homeowners with updates on
progress toward installation via text, email, and installer branded
in-app notifications.
“By automating document submission, we want to not only give
installers time back, but also help them improve operational
efficiency across their business and get paid faster,” said Scott
Nguyen, CEO of Bodhi. “We know that when back-office operations
move faster, cancellation rates go down, reviews and referrals go
up, and companies become more resilient.”
As a bonus, Sunlight Financial’s solar installation partners
will receive for free the first month of Bodhi’s automated solar
customer experience platform, Bodhi® Pro. Sunlight partners will
also receive a 50% discount on Bodhi’s standard implementation fee.
To learn more and take advantage of the partnership, installers can
