Opportunity intake

Drop in any deal material. Start with the opportunity already understood.

Forward the email, upload the OM, spreadsheet, planning report, site plan or data room. UnlockLand reads the material, structures the facts and assumptions, identifies conflicts and begins the development analysis with your team.

No clean template required.
Send what you already have

The deal does not need to arrive in a perfect template.

Opportunity Intake starts with the messy combination of documents, models, plans and conversations that real teams receive.

One opportunity record

Every document becomes part of the same development case.

The original material stays intact while the relevant facts, claims, assumptions and missing items are connected to the workflows that need them.

Not a file repository. A live opportunity your team can analyse, challenge and advance.

Where do the cost plan and sponsor model disagree?
Three material differences affect the base case.

The sponsor model uses a hard cost of $338/sf, while the cost plan uses $365/sf. Contingency is 3.0% in the model and 5.0% in the cost plan. The model also excludes the identified utility upgrade.

Connected analysis

The intake becomes work—not another upload queue.

Once the opportunity is structured, the same record moves directly into every relevant UnlockLand workflow.

01

Feasibility

Test planning claims, capacity, constraints, approvals and material site risks.

02

Test-Fit

Turn the site and program information into viable development scenarios.

03

Underwriting

Map sponsor assumptions into a connected financial case and sensitivities.

04

Compare

Normalize the opportunity so it can be compared with every other deal.

05

Professional Assurance

Route the right questions and evidence into qualified review.

06

Decision Workflow

Assign owners, conditions and next actions with the intake history preserved.

Conflict & gap detection

Find the disagreement before it becomes the decision.

When two sources tell different stories, the difference becomes a visible diligence item—not a hidden spreadsheet problem.

Opportunity Intake FAQ

Start with the deal material you actually receive.

01Do we need to organize the files before uploading?

No. Opportunity Intake is designed for the material teams actually receive: incomplete broker packages, mixed document types, spreadsheets, reports, plans, email context and shared folders. UnlockLand structures the material into one opportunity record.

02What types of deal material can we provide?

Typical inputs include offering memoranda, sponsor models, planning reports, zoning documents, site plans, cost plans, market studies, surveys, title information, third-party reports, images, emails, previous memos and data-room files.

03Does UnlockLand treat every extracted value as a fact?

No. Source facts, reported claims, organization inputs, model assumptions, calculations and items requiring verification remain distinct. Material fields retain their source and confidence status.

04What happens when documents disagree?

UnlockLand surfaces the conflicting values, identifies their sources and creates a verification item. Your team can resolve the issue, assign it for review or carry the uncertainty into scenario and sensitivity analysis.

05Can we ask questions across the uploaded material?

Yes. Teams can ask deal-specific questions, inspect the supporting source, compare claims across documents and identify what remains unanswered before deeper work begins.

06Can the intake start analysis automatically?

Yes. Once the relevant fields are structured, the opportunity can move into feasibility, Test-Fit, underwriting, comparison, professional assurance and the decision pipeline without rebuilding the record.

07Can we process multiple sponsor submissions consistently?

Yes. Each submission can retain its original documents and assumptions while being normalized into the same opportunity framework, allowing consistent screening, diligence and comparison across sponsors.
