Lease PDF to Excel

By Angel Campa, Founder · Updated March 2026 · Saves 3–6 hours per lease

The Problem

Commercial lease data is locked in PDFs — there is no native way to get structured, field-by-field data into Excel without hours of manual copy-paste or abstraction. Every property manager, lease administrator, and analyst ends up re-reading the same document multiple times just to populate a spreadsheet.

Step-by-Step Workflow

  1. 1
    Upload lease PDF to LextractSource

    Drag-and-drop the executed lease PDF into the Lextract dashboard. Lextract accepts single documents up to 200 pages and multi-exhibit packages.

  2. 2
    AI extraction runs in under 3 minutesLextract

    Lextract runs OCR via AWS Textract and then passes the full text to Claude to extract 125+ structured fields — rent schedule, escalations, options, CAM provisions, insurance requirements, and more.

  3. 3
    Review confidence scoresLextract

    Each extracted field shows a confidence score. Fields flagged below 90% are highlighted for manual review so you can verify before exporting.

  4. 4
    Download Excel exportDestination

    Click "Export to Excel" to download a structured .xlsx file with one row per field and columns for extracted value, confidence score, and source page reference.

  5. 5
    Import into master lease tracking spreadsheetDestination

    Paste the extracted fields into your existing lease tracking workbook or use the downloaded file as a standalone lease abstract. All 125+ fields are labeled with standard CRE terminology.

Frequently Asked Questions

What fields does Lextract extract into Excel?

Lextract extracts 125+ structured fields including tenant name, premises, base rent, rent escalations, lease commencement and expiration dates, renewal options, termination rights, CAM provisions, security deposit, permitted use, and more. Every field maps to a named column in the Excel export.

Can I export multiple leases to a single Excel file?

Yes. After processing multiple leases, you can bulk export all abstracts into a single Excel workbook with one row per lease — ideal for building a portfolio-level rent roll.

How accurate is the extraction?

Lextract achieves over 95% field-level accuracy on standard commercial leases. Each field displays a confidence score so you know exactly which values to verify before using the data.

Does it work on scanned PDFs?

Yes. Lextract uses AWS Textract for OCR before extraction, so it handles both digitally-created PDFs and scanned documents, including multi-exhibit lease packages.
