About Line.Build
Line.Build is software for contractors to seamlessly find and apply for financing and rebates for energy efficiency upgrades. With buildings accounting for almost 40% of US GHG emissions, retrofitting for efficiency is essential to reduce emissions and load on the grid, but expensive. Over $80B of rebates, incentives and financing is available but hyper-fragmented across utilities, federal funds, grants, and green lending programs. Line consolidates disparate sources of funds and simplifies finding and applying for incentives and financing. Line is designed to be user-friendly, available in multiple languages, and accessible on both web and mobile devices. Additionally, it provides an API that seamlessly integrates with existing quoting tools, enhancing efficiency and convenience.
