The AI Leasing Exchange
How ALEX works
Listing sites help you look. ALEX closes the transaction: intake, matching, build-out pricing, landlord-approved proposals, negotiation, underwriting, a redlinable lease, and electronic signature — the 3-to-6-month small-lease process, compressed to weeks.
Small leases are the entire focus: office under 10,000 SF, retail under 3,500 SF, industrial under 20,000 SF.
For tenants
1
Tell ALEX your program
Answer the questions a broker would ask: offices, workstations, conference rooms, submarket, special power or HVAC needs, timing, term, budget. ALEX converts the room counts to rentable area using real space standards.

See every building that can work — including the ones that don't fit yet
ALEX searches real Los Angeles inventory and does what listing sites can't: when a space doesn't fit as-is, it models the cheapest build-out that closes the gap, with a priced plan you can edit room by room.

Request a proposal — the landlord stays in control
One click asks the landlord for terms. Nothing is issued until the owner reviews and approves. Then ALEX runs the full cash-flow analysis: effective rent, free rent, TI allowance, NPV, cash at signing — and suggests counters, like trading a longer term for better economics.
4
Underwriting, then the lease itself
Once terms are agreed, the exchange requests your financial summary and tells you exactly what security the landlord will require — deposit, letter of credit, or guaranty. ALEX then generates the definitive lease. Either side redlines any clause; the other accepts or rejects, word by word.
5
Sign electronically
When every redline is resolved, both parties sign in the app with full ESIGN consent and a recorded audit trail. The suite comes off the market the moment the second signature lands.
For building owners
1
Claim your building or list it fresh
Every LA building from the public record is already on the exchange, unclaimed. Claim yours to publish real terms, photos, and suites — or dump your plans, media, and specs on ALEX and it assembles the listing for you.
List a property →2
List every suite separately
Each space carries its own size, rate, condition, and availability, and prices its own proposals.
3
Approve everything before it goes out
Proposal requests queue for your review. You adjust any term, then release — or decline. Nothing reaches a tenant without your sign-off, and your dashboard shows views, saves, leads, tours, and every deal on each building.
4
Underwritten tenants, executed leases, no commission
ALEX grades every tenant's covenant and computes the security package before signature. The whole transaction — proposal to executed lease — happens on the exchange for the cost of a few credits, not a brokerage fee.
Where the data comes from
Building inventory starts from the City of Los Angeles public Certificate of Occupancy record — real addresses, real square footage, real coordinates. ALEX never fabricates a photo, a rent, or a contact: rents on public-record listings are computed market estimates and always labeled as such, imagery is real aerial photography of the parcel, and contact details appear only when an owner claims the listing and publishes them. Owner-verified listings carry a badge.
