About LeasePilot

Drafting leases in Word is broken.

33,000 leases later, we’re still fixing it.

A decade in, this is the company. This is what comes next.

Built by a CRE attorney and a technologist.

Origin

An attorney noticed the work. A technologist saw the system.

David Saltman

David Saltman

CEO

David Saltman drafted commercial leases for major landlords for years. The judgment calls — fallback positions, percentage rent structure, what to concede on co-tenancy — were the part he was good at. The mechanical work — exhibits, rent schedules with CPI escalations, cross-references that had to stay in sync — was the part that consumed the day.

Each draft, hours. Across a career, weeks of work that should never have been work.

CTO

Lior Kedmi, a technologist, turned David's experience into a platform. A 40-page lease has hundreds of cross-references — every term tied to every escalation, every premises measurement tied to every pro-rata share, every CAM cap tied to every base year. Word can't hold that. A spreadsheet bolted to Word can't either.

LeasePilot models the lease as the thing it actually is: a graph of clauses and the variables they depend on.

Ten years on, the platform they built runs 33,000 leases across 5,000 properties in all 50 states — every edge case CRE drafting can surface, already encoded into it.

That’s why the leases at Brixmor, EDENS, and Federal Realty are drafted on LeasePilot.

The decade

One floor per year. Eleven so far.

Beliefs

Four positions, taken on purpose.

  1. Domain depth over platform breadth.

    Percentage rent breakpoints. CAM reconciliation. Co-tenancy clauses. SNDA, estoppels, fallback positions. CLM tools cover hundreds of contract types shallow. LeasePilot covers one — the one with thirty interlocking terms — deep.

  2. Augment attorneys, never replace them.

    The attorney decides which fallback to take, what to concede on co-tenancy, when a tenant's ask isn't worth the rent bump. LeasePilot does everything else: pulls the right template, calculates the rent schedule, manages the cross-references. The line is bright, and we draw it on the attorney's side of every judgment call.

  3. Structured data, not just documents.

    A deal isn't one document. It's a lease, a work letter, an SNDA, an estoppel, a guarantee — and they all reference the same handful of variables. Term length. Premises measurement. Base rent. Inside LeasePilot they're connected. In Word, you maintain them by hand and hope.

  4. Built to REIT and AmLaw 100 standards.

    SOC 2 Type II. 99.99% uptime. Annual audit, continuous controls. Brixmor, Federal Realty, JBG SMITH, DLC Management, Klein Enterprises — already on the platform. The bar publicly traded REITs require, cleared and re-cleared every year.

From the desks of

A COO. A General Counsel. A VP of Legal.

When a tenant asks, ‘When can I have a lease?’ I can say, ‘Tomorrow.’ That’s amazing.

Chief Operating Officer, Hajjar Management

“I've been using LeasePilot for almost 10 years. I cannot imagine going back to drafting leases where every field, exhibit, and signature block had to be inserted by hand.”

Julia F. · VP & Assistant General Counsel, CASTO

“Implementation of LeasePilot has made it unnecessary to add a paralegal to our team.”
