After trying existing CRE accounting software, we found that the entire process relied on error-prone manual entry and expensive consulting services.\n\n**✅ Our Solution: Replace manual entry with AI**\n\n* TripleZip extracts data from leases with AI (more accurately than humans)\n* TripleZip feeds that data into an accounting engine which reconciles accounts instantly\n* Done in \u003c1 day, 10X cheaper than hiring a consultant or service firm\n\nWe’ve started by automating the most complex part of CRE accounting: Triple-net (NNN) reconciliation. This process accounts for up to 1/3 of the accounting effort for a large CRE firm and often results in expensive human errors and audits.\n\nBy reducing the overhead costs of accounting and avoiding costly audits related to NNN reconciliations, we aim to improve our customer’s margins by as much as 25% percent.\n\n**Our Team**\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post\u0026id=87973\u0026key=user_uploads/2371405/6fe9a40c-dc81-438e-8c4b-76a5bbebf00d)\n\nGrayson and Yash are close friends who have collaborated on software projects since they met in middle school. Since then, they have worked together as consultants at McKinsey \u0026 Company in New York.\n\nMost recently, Grayson was a back-end tech lead at a hedge fund and Yash was a security engineer at Slack while helping with his family’s commercial real estate business.\n\nYash earned a B.S. and an M.Eng. in Computer Science from Cornell in 2020.\n\nGrayson earned a B.S. in Computer Science from the University of Texas at Austin in 2021.\n\n**Our Ask**\n\n* **Do you know someone who works in Commercial Real Estate?** We’d love to meet them!
