Architecture
Two modules. Full lifecycle.
WattKnot operates on both sides of the filing event — the two moments when developer capital is most at risk.
Pre-Filing Intelligence
Eliminate deficient applications before submission. WattKnot cross-references every element of your draft application against the compiled regulatory knowledge base for your target ISO.
Knowledge Base Compilation
Continuously updated regulatory stack — FERC orders, ISO tariffs, transmission owner guidelines, state/local requirements — normalized into a queryable schema.
Compliance Evaluation
Site control validation, technical data completeness, financial readiness checks, and timeline compliance mapping against cluster windows.
Drafting & Cost Prediction
Auto-generates application sections, predicts network upgrade costs with confidence intervals, and scores withdrawal risk for cluster neighbors.
Post-Filing Decision Engine
When study results arrive and the clock starts ticking, WattKnot converts multimillion-dollar estimates into clear go/no-go decisions at each gate.
Cluster Drop-Out Simulations
Monte Carlo withdrawal modeling across your cluster — predicting cost reallocation under every scenario so you know your real exposure.
Dynamic Financial Modeling
Instant ROI recalculation incorporating study results, market forwards, construction costs, tax credits, and financing terms.
Study Interpretation
Context-specific analysis of your Facilities Study or System Impact Study — flagging cost escalation patterns, benchmark comparisons, and negotiation opportunities.
