As your business grows and takes on more locations, one critical aspect that remains constant is the need for efficient lease management. With more and more locations comes more and more leases, amendments, contracts, permits, and many other location-specific documents. And keeping track of all the important renewal dates and other details within each document becomes an even bigger challenge as you continue to grow and expand.
Franchise operators face the daunting task of navigating complex lease agreements across multiple locations, often with limited resources and tight timelines. However, with the emergence of AI-powered technologies, the future of lease abstraction in franchise expansion is brighter than ever before.Â
The Challenges of Traditional Lease Abstraction
Traditionally, lease abstraction has been a time-consuming, labor-intensive, and just plain expensive process for multi-unit operators. Reviewing lengthy lease documents, deciphering legal jargon, and extracting essential information historically required legal and real estate expertise and resources. As franchise businesses scale and expand, the volume of leases only continue to grow, exacerbating the challenges of manual abstraction.
Embracing AI for Scalability and Efficiency
We all know that AI has impacted businesses in many ways over the past few years. And thankfully, there are new AI tools that are available to simplify lease abstraction as well. Leasecake recently released Cakebot for Abstraction, to help ease the pain of lease abstraction without the need to include your legal team. By harnessing the power of machine learning and natural language processing, Cakebot streamlines the abstraction process, enabling users to abstract leases quickly, accurately, and at scale. And best of all, it’s available at no additional cost to all Leasecake customers who use our real estate and location management platform.Â
Lease Abstraction in Under 10 Minutes
With Cakebot, the abstraction of leases that once took days or weeks can now be completed in minutes, allowing operators to focus their resources on strategic growth initiatives.
Bob Folsom, Director of Real Estate at Omega Fitness Holdings, a thriving Anytime Fitness franchisee, and customer of Leasecake, used Cakebot to abstract 74 leases from a recent acquisition quickly and easily. “I was able to abstract leases with the needed information in under 5 minutes,” said Foslom. “It’s a very swift tool.” See the full case study here.
Cakebot facilitates easy navigation through lengthy leases, making it accessible even for individuals without an extensive real estate background. As your business continues its growth, Leasecake helps in reducing the risk of a missed lease renewal, contract, or permit; improving lease accessibility; and facilitating informed negotiations during renewals.
Scalability Without Compromise
One of the key advantages of AI-powered lease abstraction is its scalability. As multi-unit operators expand and add new locations to their portfolio, Cakebot seamlessly scales as well. Whether abstracting leases for a handful of locations or hundreds, Cakebot ensures consistency, accuracy, and efficiency across the board. This scalability enables operators to streamline their lease management processes and accelerate expansion efforts without compromising on quality.

Beyond streamlining abstraction processes, AI-powered tools like Cakebot empower multi-unit operators with actionable insights and data-driven decision-making capabilities. By extracting and organizing critical lease information, Cakebot enables operators to identify opportunities, assess risks, and negotiate favorable terms with landlords. This level of visibility and transparency into lease agreements is invaluable for making informed decisions that drive growth and profitability.
