Company Summary

We’re tackling the three biggest barriers to adoption of solar and efficiency in the most fragmented residential markets: 1) awareness, 2) credibility, and 3) complexity. Weave works with solar installers and energy efficiency product vendors to incentivize existing customers to refer their friends to purchase the product or service. We use a hybrid SAAS and revenue sharing model for our co-branded solution.
