ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FOR LEASES
AI That Spots Risk Before It Costs You
Every lease hides risks. Leasecake’s AI finds them before they turn into surprise costs, missed opportunities, or legal headaches.
Stop Guessing What’s in Your Lease
Artificial Intelligence That Gives You Clarity and Control
But digging through pages of legal language takes time—and leaves too much room for risk.
Lease Abstraction
Automatically extract the details that matter, rent schedules, renewal options, terminations, CAM terms so your team can add and maintain your lease data portfolio accurately and quickly.
Clause Summarization
Don’t just store your leases. Understand them. AI distills complex legal language into clear summaries you can act on. Track and report on specific clauses—like exclusivity rights, relocation provisions, or co-tenancy triggers—across your entire portfolio.
Document Q&A
Ask a question like, “Who is responsible for repairing a broken HVAC unit?” or “How much can my landlord charge me for common area maintenance according to this lease?” or “Do I have any power or protection if a direct competitor moves in next door?”—and get an instant, AI-powered answer, pulled straight from your lease.

Expansion blocker detection: Finds exclusivity, radius, competitor, use, co-tenancy, and relocation restrictions that can stall growth.
Financial & operational exposure: Surfaces escalations, CAM pass-throughs, percentage rent triggers, assignment/sublet limits, SNDA/estoppel, repair responsibility, and notice traps.
Action guidance: Provides suggested language and negotiation opportunities so teams know the next best move.

Why do I need Leasecake’s AI when I can use ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is a general-purpose tool — powerful for brainstorming, drafting, or answering broad questions. But it isn’t designed to reliably interpret the complex, specialized legal and financial language in commercial leases.
Leasecake AI, on the other hand, is purpose-built for real estate risk management. It doesn’t just summarize text — it:
Understands lease-specific clauses like co-tenancy, relocation, exclusivity, CAM provisions, and renewal options.
Applies risk scoring and context so you know not just what a clause says, but why it matters and what action to take.
Integrates with your portfolio so insights flow into lease abstracts, critical clauses, tenant obligation clarity, and lease analysis reporting.
Meets enterprise standards with SOC 2 Type II security, audit readiness, and enterprise-scale reporting.
In short, ChatGPT can tell you “what’s in the text,” but Leasecake AI tells you what it means for your business, your portfolio, and your growth.
