Frequently asked questions
What does Surfaice lease abstraction extract from a commercial lease?
Surfaice extracts critical dates, renewal options, rent steps, CAM terms, co-tenancy and kickout clauses, exclusive use, radius restrictions, insurance requirements, and landlord work letter references — each tied to clause citations so your team can verify without re-reading 90-page PDFs.
How is Surfaice different from manual lease abstraction or generic AI?
Extraction is deterministic and playbook-driven for retail lease fields your portfolio team actually uses. Outputs map to Lucernex, Excel, and Procore formats instead of unstructured summaries, and flagged fields route to human review when wording conflicts with legacy abstract data.
Which lease document types does the Commercial Lease Abstractor support?
NNN, gross, and modified gross leases, letters of intent, amendments, and work letters. The agent is tuned for multi-location retail portfolios where inconsistent abstract quality creates CAM, renewal, and reporting risk.
Can we export abstracts into our lease administration system?
Yes. Structured exports include Excel tables, PDF reports, JSON data, and Procore import formats so abstracted fields can feed lease admin, accounting, and development workflows without re-keying.
How does clause risk review work?
The risk review mode flags non-standard language in termination, default, force majeure, and liability sections. High-impact deviations surface with citations so legal and real estate teams can prioritize review before renewal or disposition decisions.
