How it works
Six jobs. One project record.
Change it once. The drawings, the estimate, the utility forms and the engineer's review all follow.
Find the site.
Real parking lots, ranked, with reasons.
- Nine scored layers: traffic, power, parking, demand and more.
- Every score shows its source and confidence.
- Missing data shows as missing, not as zero.
- Rated, with reasons
- Power checked up front
- Every lot scored
Design it.
A checked layout on the aerial in 1 to 3 minutes.
- AI places chargers, gear and the tie-in, then checks its own work.
- Every circuit sized to the NEC, with the section cited.
- Any maker's equipment.
- Trench length measured
- Checked against code
- Drawn on the aerial
- Budget estimate included
Draw the set.
CD50 to price it. CD100 for your engineer.
- Site plans, one-line, load calcs and details.
- PDF, DXF and DWG.
- Bill of materials and calculation report.
- Keyed notes and schedule
- Battery on the plan
- Room for your engineer's seal
Price it.
A budget estimate from the design's own materials list.
- Every line has a seller, a link and a date.
- Low, typical and high, by scope.
- Incentives beside the total, never inside it.
| Key | Scope | Priced from | Shown as |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Gear | Chargers, switchgear, transformers | Low, typical, high |
| 2 | Electrical | The design's materials list | Low, typical, high |
| 3 | Civil and boring | DOT unit costs, public bids | Low, typical, high |
| 4 | Soft costs | Design, permits, utility | Editable defaults |
| 5 | Incentives | Approved programs only | Beside the total |
Unknown items show "not priced", never $0. A budget estimate, not a quote.
Prep the utility paperwork.
On the utility's own forms. You file.
- Load letters and packets filled from the design.
- Every file checked against the drawings.
- Utility letters read by AI, changes flagged.

Every case tracked: stage, deadlines, requests and an audit log.
Hand it to your engineer.
Six logged gates. A licensed PE seals it.
- License verified before anyone can accept.
- Every decision in an audit trail.
- Bring your own engineer, or invite one in.

Two modes, one project. Guided asks plain questions. Pro shows every number.
Battery storage
Grid falls short? Add a battery.
Same project, same code checks.
With chargers
Full speed on a small service.
- Sized to the gap between the chargers and the grid.
- Four makers compared on cost and payback.
- The payback math is on the screen.
- Grid draw capped at 208 kW
- Four makers compared
- Payback math on screen
- Placed on the plan
On its own
Cut a building's peak.
- Sized from the building's electric bills.
- Tied into the existing switchgear.
- Yearly saving and payback up front.
- Sized from your bills
- Yearly saving estimated
- Peak shaved every month
- Tied to existing switchgear
Always building
It gets sharper with every search.
-
Coverage
Each search builds the map.
The next search there takes seconds.
-
Local knowledge
Verified once, used everywhere.
Utility rules and incentives stay in.
-
Feedback
Shaped by the people using it.
Beta reports decide what gets built next.
Who does what
Software drafts. Your people decide.
CRBCUT drafts
- Site scores, with sources.
- Layouts and code checks.
- Drawing sets.
- Budget estimates.
- Utility forms.
Your team decides
- Your engineer reviews and seals.
- Your utility confirms the power.
- You file the application.
- You pick the equipment.
- Your EPC prices the build.
The goal is a set your engineer is glad to receive.
Who it is for
Everyone who gets a site built.

CPOs and developers
Build the pipeline from facts.
Screen a market. See the layout and the budget before the site walk.
For developers and CPOs -
EPCs, contractors, engineers
Start from a checked draft.

Who built it
Built by someone who has built these sites.
Aatish Patel has spent the last six years building and running EV charging sites across North America. CRBCUT is built around what actually sinks projects: the unpriced service upgrade, the landlord who says no, the utility queue.
CRBCUT is maker-neutral by rule: it doesn't sell chargers or batteries, and it never recommends one brand over another.
He also runs The Charge Sheet, a public EV charger resource.
