What is The Volt Planner?

The Volt Planner is an all-in-one electrical estimating software built for residential and commercial contractors. It generates NEC code-accurate material lists, circuit layout drawings, permit packages, and job estimates.

Does The Volt Planner follow NEC electrical codes?

Yes. All estimates include NEC code-compliant breaker types (AFCI, GFCI, dual-function), wire gauges, and circuit requirements. Defaults are set per NEC standards and are fully editable.

Can I generate electrical drawings with The Volt Planner?

Yes. The Drawing Generator tool lets you create professional circuit layout sketches from your estimates, uploaded floor plans, or from scratch using a built-in symbol palette and canvas editor.

How much does The Volt Planner cost?

The Volt Planner has three tiers, each with a 14-day free trial. Builder is $29 per month or $19 per month billed annually. Pro is $79 per month or $59 per month billed annually. Commercial is $299 per month or $239 per month billed annually. The New Graduate Bundle locks Commercial at $120 per month for 24 months (60 percent off Commercial). Custom enterprise pricing is available for shops with 10 or more trucks.

Is The Volt Planner suitable for residential electrical work?

Yes. The estimator is designed for residential new construction and remodel projects, with room-by-room calculations, dedicated circuit tracking, specialty items like ceiling fans and security cameras, and panel capacity validation.

The bundle

Commercial tier at $120/mo, locked in for 24 months.

14-day trial. 24-month commitment. Money-back job guarantee. Same tools as standard Commercial ($299/mo), just $179/mo cheaper for the next two years.

Land paid electrical work in 24 months, or we refund you.

We’re betting on you. If you actively use the tool to submit at least 100 bids inside your first 24 months with the bundle and still haven’t landed a single paid electrical job, we’ll refund every month you’ve paid. No fine-print traps.

What you need to show to claim the refund

Evidence of at least 100 bids submitted using The Volt Planner within your first 24 months. Bid PDFs, emails to clients, or exports from the tool all count.
Evidence that those bids were rejected or unanswered (no paid work won). A short declining-email summary is fine.
Subscription kept current and in good standing through the 24-month commitment window.
Claim submitted to support within 30 days of the 24-month anniversary of your sign-up.

Refunds are processed within 14 days of a qualified claim. Full terms and conditions available on the Terms of Service.

Fair questions to ask before signing up

When you activate the bundle, you agree to maintain the subscription for 24 months after your 14-day trial ends. That's what locks in the $120/mo bundle rate (60% off Commercial's $299/mo standard). If you cancel inside the commitment window for any reason other than the job guarantee, a pro-rated early-termination fee applies (the discount you received on the months you used).

You use the tool to submit at least 100 bids inside your first 24 months with the bundle. If at the end of the 24-month window every one of those bids was rejected or unanswered and you still haven't landed a single paid electrical job, contact support within 30 days of your sign-up anniversary with the bid evidence and rejection proof. We'll refund every month you were billed. Full terms live in our Terms of Service.

Anyone with a journeyman or master electrician license issued within the last 24 months. Apprenticeship completion counts. If you're on the edge, email us and we'll work with you.

Everything in the standard Commercial tier: unlimited estimates, the Sketch Generator (circuit layouts + panel schedules), the Permit Package across 16 AHJs, auto jurisdiction detection, the Accubid-style Commercial Estimator, PDF Drawing Takeoff (multi-page, Claude vision), NECA labor units + CSI Division 26, saved templates, and priority email support.

Most new electrical licensees aren't going to bid only residential forever. By giving you the Commercial Estimator and Drawing Takeoff from day one, you can move into $33K-$748K commercial bids when the opportunity arrives without re-learning a new tool or paying full price during your most cash-constrained years.

Correct. No charges for 14 days. Cancel any time during trial at no cost. Your first charge of $120 lands on day 15.

You automatically convert to standard Commercial monthly pricing ($299/mo) or you can cancel. No further commitment.

Price it. Draw it. Permit it. Get paid.

Start your 14-day free trial today. Lock in $120/mo Commercial for the next 24 months. That is 60% off the standard $299/mo. Land your first paid job or get it all refunded.
