Importing Leases & Office Data

Bring your existing portfolio in from spreadsheets and PDFs. The guided importer maps your columns to the right fields, and AI can read the lease documents themselves.

  1. 1

    Prepare your spreadsheet

    Export your current tracker to CSV. Any column layout works — you will map fields in the next step, so there is no rigid template to match.

  2. 2

    Map your columns

    Upload the CSV and match each column to a lease field: tenant, premises, commencement, expiration, base rent, escalation, and notice window.

  3. 3

    Attach the source documents

    Upload the lease PDFs to each record. Documents are stored on the lease and become fully searchable across your portfolio.

  4. 4

    Let AI fill the gaps

    Run AI extraction on an uploaded lease to auto-populate any missing key terms, then review the suggested values before saving.

Pro tip

Numeric and AI-suggested financial values are coerced safely — out-of-range or non-numeric entries are dropped rather than breaking the import.
