Scanifly, the solar industry’s leader in PV design and field operations software, announced an integration with IronRidge, an Enstall company and trusted name in solar mounting systems for over 25 years. The integration automatically transfers Scanifly design data and panel placement directly into IronRidge’s Design Assistant, eliminating platform switching and saving contractors 1-3 hours per project.

The direct API integration connects Scanifly’s design environment with IronRidge’s racking, bill of materials (BOM), and engineering document capabilities. Solar contractors can now select optimal mounting equipment and generate comprehensive BOMs in just a couple of mouse clicks without recreating their array layouts.

The integration delivers immediate advantages:

• Unifies PV design, racking, and BOMs in one easy workflow
• Eliminates duplicate work by automatically transferring panel layouts
• Saves 1-3 hours per project on design and planning tasks
• Ensures accurate inventory for install day
• Prevents costly revisions and equipment shortages

Scanifly’s drone-based technology produces to-scale 3D models with exact measurements that flow directly into IronRidge Design Assistant. This precision prevents revisions on install day, eliminates procurement errors, and ensures rails are neither over- nor under-ordered, avoiding the costly mistakes that happen when modules are accidentally redrawn with wrong spacing or placement.

“In 2026, when solar companies need to be more time and cost-efficient than ever, eliminating wasteful steps is critical,” said Jason Steinberg, CEO of Scanifly. “Scanifly’s focus is on reducing time spent in the solar workflow while never compromising on system accuracy, fitment, or maximizing production. Our integration with IronRidge delivers exactly that—connecting precise DroneDesign layouts directly to their racking calculations so contractors can move faster without sacrificing quality.”

This connection combines Scanifly’s photorealistic designs with IronRidge’s proven mounting expertise, ensuring a perfect fit—based on actual roof conditions—for the XR or Aire racking systems and preferred attachments like FlashFoot2 or HUG.

“The Scanifly + IronRidge API integration enables our design team to quickly and accurately generate racking quantities for each project with just a few clicks,” said Davis Fogerty, Co-Owner & Senior Residential Project Manager at Namaste Solar. “This streamlined process reduces front-end design time and ensures our warehouse and crews receive precisely what they need for efficient execution.”

“This integration accelerates the path from design to installation by eliminating redundant design work and ensuring accurate racking specifications,” said Tony Lenh, Digital Product Lead at IronRidge. “By removing the need to manually transfer data between platforms, contractors can work faster and with greater confidence that the racking system matches what’s needed on the roof.”
