There's a moment every acquisitions team knows too well. You're three deals deep, the lender just sent over a 90-page loan package, and someone on the call asks, "What's the prepayment structure again?" You know you read it. You know it's in there somewhere. But right now, you're flipping through tabs and PDFs like a person who forgot where they parked.
That's the problem we built Examen to solve.
Examen is an AI-powered commercial real estate analyst. Not a chatbot with a real estate skin. Not a dashboard that makes you do all the thinking. It actually reads the documents: the OMs, the rent rolls, the loan agreements. And it pulls out the stuff that matters. The terms that move the needle on whether a deal pencils or doesn't.
We built it because we lived it. The early days of underwriting a deal are shockingly manual. You're copying numbers out of PDFs into spreadsheets, cross-referencing lease expirations with debt maturities, and praying you didn't fat-finger a cap rate. It's detail work that demands precision, but it gets done at 11 PM when you're running on cold coffee and stubbornness.
Examen doesn't get tired. It doesn't transpose digits. And it doesn't need someone to explain what a yield maintenance provision is.
What it gives you back is time. Time to actually think about whether the deal is good, not just whether the data is right. Time to ask better questions in IC. Time to look at one more deal this week instead of drowning in the last one.
We're not replacing analysts. We're giving them a teammate that handles the grunt work so they can do what they were actually hired to do: make smart investment decisions.
That's Examen. Your new favorite analyst.
