Electrical design,
automated.

Photograph any nameplate or switchboard. Circuit Pilot reads the equipment, maps the relationships, and generates a compliant single-line diagram — automatically.

  • AI-OCR reads any nameplate photo
  • Auto-generated single-line diagrams
  • NEC 2023 compliant PDF reports
  • SVG + PDF export, client-ready

No credit card. No demo call required.

What Circuit Pilot does

Three workflows that take hours in legacy tools. Circuit Pilot runs them in minutes.

01

Arc Flash Analysis

Run IEEE 1584-2018 incident energy calculations from your equipment database. Output includes incident energy in cal/cm², arc flash boundary, PPE category, and working distance — formatted for label printing and study reports.

02

Equipment Catalog

Point your phone at a nameplate and Circuit Pilot extracts motor, transformer, switchgear, and breaker specs via OCR. Every asset is version-tracked and linked to the equipment it feeds — from the utility service point down to individual loads.

03

Automated Single-Line Diagrams

One-lines generated automatically from your equipment graph. No Visio, no AutoCAD, no manual layout. Export as SVG or PDF for relay settings packages, arc flash studies, and client submittals.

Built for engineers tired of enterprise software

ETAP starts at $20,000/year and requires a dedicated admin to manage licenses and install updates on every machine. SKM needs a week of classroom training before your team can run a basic load flow. Both ship as Windows desktop applications that look and feel like the early 2000s.

Circuit Pilot is browser-based. Your team logs in on day one and runs their first arc flash study without reading a manual. Pricing is per-project — your whole team has access, not just the two engineers you could afford seats for.

Built to standards

IEEE 1584-2018

Arc flash incident energy and arc flash boundary calculations. The current standard for electrical safety analysis in North America — Circuit Pilot implements the 2018 revision, not the deprecated 2002 model.

NFPA 70E-2024

Electrical safety in the workplace. Circuit Pilot outputs PPE category, arc flash boundary, and labeling language that aligns with the 2024 edition requirements.

NEC 2023

National Electrical Code. Equipment validation rules are keyed to NEC 2023 article references. Rule sets are version-aware — NEC 2026 support is on the roadmap.
