Lights On America

Software for the Lighting Trade

Tools that take the friction out of quoting, bidding, and managing lighting product data — built by a team that runs real lighting bids every week.

Bidding Lighting Is Still Done in Spreadsheets

Lighting distributors and contractors lose hours to manual work: rekeying RFP line items, chasing supplier quotes by email, matching cryptic model numbers across catalogs, and rebuilding the same pricing workbook for every bid.

Lights On America lives this workflow. We pair 45+ years in the lighting and electrical business with modern, AI-assisted software development — so we build tools that fit how the trade actually works, not generic software bent to fit.
