Civil-Grade Constructibility. Inside AutoCAD.

PVX.AI runs natively inside AutoCAD. No file exports, no external tools. Terrain-aware layout, automated grading, and cable routing with voltage drop per string.

  • Native AutoCAD plugin. Your topo surface, your DWG, one file.
  • Soil hardness mapping and slope analysis on real terrain data
  • Three grading approaches compared automatically with cut/fill volumes
  • DC cable routing with voltage drop per string and trench corridors

PVX.AI vs PVcase: Feature Comparison

Side-by-side comparison of key engineering capabilities.

Feature PVX.AI PVcase
AutoCAD integration Native plugin (runs inside AutoCAD) Standalone + AutoCAD plugin
Terrain analysis Reads actual topo surface, slope + soil hardness mapping Basic terrain import
Grading optimization 3 approaches compared automatically with cut/fill volumes Single grading approach
Cable routing Auto routing with voltage drop per string, 3 topologies (Line/U/Leapfrog) Basic cable estimation
Soil analysis Soil hardness mapping integrated with grading cost calculation Not available
Construction outputs Pile coordinates, grading sheets, cross-sections, drainage plans Layout exports
PVsyst export Direct export from AutoCAD Available

Why Engineers Switch from PVcase

Terrain Intelligence

$727K saved on earthwork

One project saved $727K in earthwork because PVX.AI mapped soil hardness, optimized pile-adaptive grading, and split 52 tables to keep pile lengths under 4m. That's 118K m³ of avoided earthwork.

Cable Optimization

$430K saved on DC cabling

PVX.AI calculates real cable routes, not bird's-eye estimates. Every string gets an actual trench corridor route with automatic voltage drop calculation. On one 130 MWp project, Leapfrog routing saved $430K vs Line String topology.

One Workflow

From topo to construction in minutes

No exporting between 3-4 tools. Terrain analysis, layout, grading, cable routing, and PVsyst export. All inside the same AutoCAD file.
