“Time is money. We get that lease back out in a day and now we are collecting rent 10 days sooner. It equates to a financial implication, not just an administrative implication.”

The story

What five days per lease was costing

1

The bottleneck

Each lease abstract took the team about five days. With a team of five, running two acquisitions at the same time was not feasible.

2

What changed

Jeanette's team runs leases through Kolena's AI agents and gets the abstract back in about five minutes, with every field cited to the source paragraph. They have since added management agreement abstracts and started building financial ratios from the extracted data.

3

The result

Leases go back out in a day, rent comes in 10 days sooner, and two acquisitions at once is now feasible with the same team of five.

How it works

Every field cited to its paragraph

Kolena's AI agents abstract each lease into your template and flag the clauses that need a second look.
