Introducing Perl Street's AI co-pilot

Many financial planning tools, like Microsoft BI/Power Platform, Workday Adaptive, and NetSuite/Oracle, struggle with onboarding complex project financial models. As Dr. Peyman Faratin, our Chief AI Advisor, says, "The critical question in using technology is: where are you transferring the complexity?" Renewable energy data often resides in Excel due to its flexibility, leading to time-consuming manual data preparation.

‍

‍

Perl Street's AI co-pilot solves this by allowing users to upload Excel spreadsheets, instantly access dashboards, and perform advanced scenario modeling, enhancing flexibility and speed by 10x. This makes your Excel spreadsheets the single source of financial truth. Our AI co-pilot, now available for free trials, offers a powerful experience for new and existing customers.

Building The Financial Pipes

"The financial pipes, as they currently exist, are narrow, twisted, and clogged. We need wider, straighter, cleaner financial pipes to facilitate the flow of capital to reach our collective climate goals." - Richard Kauffman (NYSERDA), Fixing the Plumbing: Asset Management, Clean Energy Technology, and the Valley of Death (Settling Climate Accounts).

We have been building these straight financial pipes. On the one hand, we have been enabling our customers to develop and finance bankable projects. On the other hand, we have financing customers who leverage our financial management software.

‍

‍

We are excited to officially launch Perl Street’s origination platform for our financing customers and offer embedded financing solutions for clean energy project developers, making my engineering dream come true: a financing options button on engineering design software tools!!
