Building your own automations

Want to build your own? SolDial gives you a full trigger/action engine — and you can create rules just by describing them.

Natural-language creation

Type what you want — "preserve my Powerwall above 80% before stormy days" or "don't charge the car before 9 PM on weekdays" — and SolDial compiles it into a real automation you can review and save.

Triggers

Fire on a time (clock or sunrise/sunset, scoped to specific days of the week), Powerwall charge level, EV state (charging started/stopped), weather forecast, electricity price, grid status, or power flow — and combine 2–3 with AND/OR.

Actions

Set backup reserve, set operational mode, preserve battery charge, start/stop vehicle charging, set a charge limit, schedule charge windows or a ready-by time, send a notification — and, within your permission, set grid export or grid charging.

History shows what changed

Every time a rule fires it’s logged in your Automation history with the time and outcome. Tap an entry to see exactly what it changed — for example “Backup reserve: 20% to 100%.” A rule you fire yourself with Run now is tagged Manual test, so a test is never confused with an automatic action.
