Our Mission
Buildings account for over a third of greenhouse gas emissions in the US and globally. The most viable pathway for decarbonizing the built environment is to replace fossil fuel appliances with efficient, electric alternatives (e.g. replacing a gas furnace with a heat pump), and then powering those electric appliances with carbon-free electricity. Billions in incentives are available each year to make upgrades more affordable, yet finding and claiming funds is time-consuming, costly, and risky for potential participants. Furthermore, these programs are expensive to administer for incentive providers. Rock Rabbit delivers an AI-powered API and app to make it fast, easy and reliable for participants to find and claim rebates, tax credits and financing for electrification projects. Rock Rabbit also partners directly with incentive providers to make these programs more equitable and cost-effective to administer. Rock Rabbit integrates the highly fragmented landscape of actors, processes & data to drastically reduce friction across the value chain - ultimately accelerating the rate of building decarbonization.
About The Business
We are building an AI-powered data and workflow SaaS platform to accelerate building decarbonization. Our platform allows for streamlined discovery, application, and ultimately end-to-end management of incentives and financing. With a small team and in only one year, we have built out our core product suite, closed dozens of contracts, been accepted into multiple accelerators, won multiple awards, processed millions of dollars in incentive funds, and attracted top tier venture capital investors. We are now rapidly expanding across the nation.
