A complete commercial lease data entry checklist covering all 125+ fields across 14 categories for property management systems and lease databases.

Clio is a cloud-based practice management platform used by commercial real estate law firms to manage matters, documents, billing, and client communications. CRE attorneys use Clio to organize lease review matters, store executed leases, and track client work. While Clio excels at matter management, it does not provide lease data extraction capabilities — attorneys still manually abstract lease terms for client deliverables, negotiation support, and legal opinions.
Lextract enables CRE attorneys to deliver faster, more thorough lease abstracts to clients. By processing the lease PDF through Lextract before manual review, attorneys receive a 126-field extraction with confidence scores that identifies the clauses requiring careful analysis. The red flag detection surfaces provisions that warrant immediate legal attention — unusual termination rights, co-tenancy clauses, and missing audit rights — allowing attorneys to focus their time on the provisions that matter most.
Lextract provides the following export formats compatible with Clio:

Manual lease abstraction by an attorney or paralegal typically takes 3–6 hours for a complex commercial lease. Lextract handles the extraction of all 126 standard fields in under 3 minutes, with confidence scores indicating which fields need attorney verification. This allows legal professionals to focus on the analytical and interpretive work — legal risk assessment, unusual provisions, negotiating positions — rather than data entry.
