À propos de nous
Notre mission :
Piloter la transition énergétique
Fondée en 2021 aux Pays-Bas, Chapter est une entreprise SaaS européenne dont l'objectif est singulier: accélérer la transition énergétique en permettant aux entreprises du secteur de l'énergie durable de travailler de manière productive, efficace et conforme.
Founded in 2021, it began with Chapter Academy, an initiative that guides people from other sectors into solar careers through an accessible app, an InstallQ-accredited basic course, and personal coaching toward employment.
This work laid the foundation for Chapter AI, a smart knowledge and support tool for manufacturers, installers, and distributors. Powered by Agentic AI, it reduces repetitive work, speeds up processes, and ensures consistent quality so companies can scale faster.
