We’re excited to share the latest updates designed to make your experience in Solo smoother, smarter, and more accurate. Check out what’s new below & and don’t forget to reach out to us if you have any questions!
Solo Studio Updates
📐 Design Start Mode Selection Modal
After selecting imagery, users will be able to decide if they want to start an Auto Design (Single Click Design) or to create their own design.
🖥️ Solo Studio One-Click Design
You've been asking & we've been building. Single Click Design is live! Single Click Design runs all automations simultaneously, keeping them in sync while giving users full agency to intervene. If a specific automation needs adjustment, users can pause it, apply a fix, and resume, and the rest of the suite instantly adapts. The result is a faster, more fluid design workflow without sacrificing control.
🏡 Home Button Added to Solo Studio Design
A Home Icon button has been added inside of Solo Studio. The home button will direct users to the customer's page.
🌎 3D Imagery button is now on top of the Solo Studio Tool Bar + Shortcuts for NearMaps/Google Earth
We've added the 3D Imagery Button to be in the Top Tool Bar inside of Solo Studio. 3D Imagery will allow users to view the home in 3D, which can help asses the home when creating the design.
Also in the Tool Bar, are shortcuts to Google Earth and Nearmap to reference the home imaging outside of Solo Studio.

✅ LightReach Palmetto Users - Required Post Solar Utility Info
When LightReach is selected, the Post-Solar Utility Information will always be shown, regardless of the “Hide Post Solar Utility Bill” setting in the proposal theme.
✅ Sungage Users - Recheck Verification will be required & will now only authenticate using "Use Sales Rep Email"
As of March 17, to use Sungage option on a proposal, Recheck Verification is required. Additionally, Sungage will now only authenticate using "Use Sales Rep Email." With this change, if a user does not have an account in Sungage account under their current email and does not have a Recheck ID in their user profile, the authentication will fail.
There is no new process inside of Solo, just make sure all users have the same email address inside of Solo and Sungage to be compliant for Recheck. 😉
