AI in commercial real estate is usually framed around predictions and pricing.
In brief: Underwriting delays come from manual data extraction, not Excel.
Institutional CRE teams automate the data layer, not the model.
Parsing rent rolls and T12s is now a scale problem, not a staffing one.
AI underwriting is being adopted first by lenders and servicers.
Speed and consistency are emerging as underwriting risk controls.
This Demo Day conversation with Parag Goswami, CEO of Clik.ai, focuses on something more fundamental: how underwriting actually gets done.
The core insight is simple.
The bottleneck in CRE underwriting is not Excel.
It is the manual, error-prone work of pulling data out of PDFs and forcing it into models. Clik.ai does not replace spreadsheets.
It automates everything before the spreadsheet matters by automating the tedious data input to your Excel model and automating it.
That is why its earliest adopters are institutional lenders, servicers, credit teams, and acquisitions pros.
Add to this automated Trepp comparable data and you have a high-value, early underwriting model to screen deals using your own Excel model.
Bottom line Clik.ai eliminates friction in the earliest stage of deal evaluation by automating the grunt work of data inputting giving you faster underwriting and a significant competitive edge.

More from AI for Real Estate
Most CRE sponsors treat AI as a collection of separate tools but the firms pulling ahead are building something fundamentally different: a single integrated stack where every layer of the operation, from deal sourcing to asset management, feeds the same system.
Most commercial real estate firms believe AI will transform their business. Only 9% have done anything about it. That is not a technology problem. It is a workflow problem - and no one is asking the right question to close the gap.
Most CRE firms say they're using AI. What they mean is someone has a ChatGPT tab open.
CRE brokerages have spent tens of thousands configuring Salesforce. Nobody uses it. The data is stale, the pipeline is fiction, and the analyst is entering last week's emails at 8pm to stay compliant.
Most development firms are competing over 1.5% of US land.
