Features
Automatically parses lease documents to identify all key terms (rent, escalation clauses, options, restrictions) and standardizes them for comparison
Compares your lease terms against current market rates, regional averages, and peer benchmarks to identify advantageous and unfavorable conditions
Evaluates hidden risks in lease language, such as renewal penalties, co-tenant dependencies, improvement allowances, and default clause severity
Generates prioritized negotiation tactics with specific language suggestions and leverage points based on your location, industry, and lease type
Calculates total cost of occupancy over the lease term, factoring in escalations, operating expense pass-throughs, and hidden fees
Creates compelling, data-backed letters to your landlord or broker advocating for improved terms with specific counteroffers
Assesses renewal options, expansion clauses, and early termination rights to clarify your flexibility and exit strategy
Example Output
Term Analysis Summary
Current Lease: 10,000 sq ft | $85/sq ft annually | 5-year term | 3% annual escalation
Market Comparison: Regional average is $78/sq ft with 2.5% escalation — you're paying $14,000/year above market
Risk Flags:
- ✗ CAM cap missing (unlimited operating expense pass-through possible)
- ✗ No renewal option (forces re-negotiation in competitive market)
- ✓ Tenant improvement allowance included ($250k)
Negotiation Recommendation: Request CAM cap at 3% annual increase and add 2-year renewal option at 92% of then-current market rate to reduce renegotiation risk.
