When Bryan Villano was managing nearly 20 renewable projects, he hit a wall: contract overload. That wall turned into his startup, Contract Power—an AI-powered SaaS tool built for the energy sector’s most ignored pain point: documents.

In this episode of Off the Grid, On the Record, we dive into:

  • The exact moment that made Bryan say “I need to build this”
  • Why general-purpose AI fails energy companies
  • How Contract Power’s ClauseSense tool redefines compliance tracking
  • What makes it industry-first, not just “AI-enhanced”
  • Why missing a single sentence nearly killed a $300M deal
  • What AI agents and SaaS 2.0 will mean for the future of clean tech
  • Their SOC 2, Techstars-backed growth path, and where they’re headed next

📍Whether you're in asset management, M&A, legal, or project dev—this episode is your cheat code to reclaim your week.
