Clients typically engage in transactions by creating accounts on the GreenLancer platform, where they can request permit plan sets, professional engineering reviews, and additional services.

The company supports a diverse client base, including over 7,500 contractors involved in more than 200,000 clean energy projects, contributing to a significant volume of business transactions.

The utilization of the recent funding of USD 5 mn raised in Series B financing will support these product developments and expansion efforts into new geographic regions. Additionally, the company aims to penetrate markets beyond the United States, with plans to establish a presence in Canada and parts of Europe by 2017, leveraging its established platform to cater to international renewable energy needs.
