AI agents for commercial real estate
AI agents alongside Yardi, MRI, and VTS. Lease abstraction, pipeline hygiene, and investor reporting run off the systems the owner already operates on.
Systems of record this works alongside
Starter workflows
Lease abstraction
Read the executed lease, extract the key dates, options, escalations, and recovery terms, and write the abstract into Yardi or MRI, so the asset team works from a clean data set instead of rereading PDFs.
Critical-date monitoring
Track renewal options, expirations, and rent escalations across the portfolio, surface the dates coming due, and draft the tenant or internal outreach, so no option deadline or escalation gets missed.
Deal-pipeline hygiene
Keep the leasing and acquisition pipeline current in VTS or the CRM, chase the team for updates after tours and negotiations, and draft the weekly pipeline summary for the leadership meeting.
Investor and ownership reporting
Assemble the periodic report from the property financials, occupancy, and leasing activity, draft the narrative in the firm's voice, and route to the asset manager before it goes to investors or ownership.
The value is buried in the lease documents
A commercial real estate portfolio's economics live in its leases, dense documents full of dates, options, escalations, and recovery terms that drive value and risk, yet the data gets abstracted by hand and decays as leases amend. Ceven reads the executed leases, extracts the terms, and writes the abstract into Yardi, MRI, or VTS, so the asset team works from current data. The property and leasing systems stay the record; Ceven does the abstraction and the monitoring around them, logged.
Critical dates that never slip
A missed renewal option, a forgotten escalation, or an expiration nobody planned for is real money left on the table, and tracking those dates across a portfolio by hand is fragile. Ceven watches the critical dates continuously, surfaces the ones coming due, and drafts the tenant or internal outreach, so the asset team acts on every option and escalation on time. The asset manager makes the decision; Ceven makes sure the date never passes unnoticed.
Reporting assembled from the systems of record
Investor and ownership reporting pulls from property financials, occupancy, and leasing activity that live in separate systems, and assembling it is a recurring drain on the asset team. Ceven assembles the report from those sources, drafts the narrative, and routes it to the asset manager before it reaches investors, with every figure tracing back to its source. Nothing goes to an investor without a human's approval, and the research behind any market commentary is cited.
Frequently asked
Does the agent make investment or leasing decisions?
No. Acquisition, disposition, and leasing decisions stay with the team. Ceven abstracts leases, monitors dates, keeps the pipeline current, and drafts reporting for review.
Does this work with Yardi and MRI?
Yes, both on the standard adapter, along with VTS and CoStar. Ceven reads lease and financial data and writes drafted abstracts and updates on the firm's authorization.
How accurate is lease abstraction?
Ceven drafts the abstract with each field traceable to the clause it came from, and the asset team reviews before it becomes the working record. The human confirms; Ceven does the extraction.
