Commercial real estate · Local & private AI

Local and private AI for commercial real estate

Abstracting a lease is exactly what a language model is good at, and the documents are exactly what a firm has agreed not to distribute. Leases, LOIs, and ownership financials carry confidentiality obligations that a general-purpose API quietly conflicts with, which is why the most useful application in this vertical is also the one most firms have not deployed. Running the model on infrastructure the firm controls resolves the conflict rather than managing it.

What usually breaks

Before anything gets built.

The same failures recur across commercial real estate. Strygon maps the specific system before proposing anything, but these are the ones worth checking for.

The pipeline is somebody's file

Deals live in a producer's own spreadsheet with their own stage names. Nothing rolls up to the firm, comparison across producers is impossible, and a departure takes the pipeline out of the door with it.

Notice windows pass quietly

Expirations, renewal options, escalations, and estoppel deadlines sit inside lease PDFs. Nothing watches them, and a window missed by a week is a rent number that never corrects.

The quarterly package is a rebuild

Ownership and investor reporting is reconstructed every quarter from a rent roll, a bank export, and recollection. It arrives late, it is hard to defend line by line, and it consumes the people who should be working deals.

The approach

What Strygon does about it.

Local & private AI models, aimed at those failures specifically rather than at a generic checklist.

01Local & private AI
Abstracts produced inside the firmLocal & private AI
01
Part of the scoped build

Abstracts produced inside the firm

Leases and amendments are read into structured abstracts on self-hosted models, so a confidential document is never handed to an outside processor to be understood.

02Local & private AI
Uncertain fields stay blankLocal & private AI
02
Part of the scoped build

Uncertain fields stay blank

Anything the model cannot read with confidence is flagged for a human rather than filled in, because a wrong escalation date is worse than a missing one.

03Local & private AI
Retrieval across the firm's own documentsLocal & private AI
03
Part of the scoped build

Retrieval across the firm's own documents

Questions are answered from the actual lease file with a citation back to the clause, instead of from a general model's impression of how leases usually read.

Custom software

The critical-date register is the artifact every CRE firm needs and almost none has. It cannot be configured into a CRM, because the dates live inside lease PDFs.

Accounting & financial operations

Recovery reconciliation is an annual scramble against lease language that was never extracted. The disputes that follow are the cost of doing it from PDFs.
