Retail tenants have powerful rights written into their leases — cotenancy clauses that allow them to pay dramatically less rent or exit entirely when a center falls below occupancy thresholds. CoTenancyIQ exists to make sure those rights are exercised, not forgotten.
CoTenancyIQ was built by a retail real estate professional who has spent over a decade on the tenant side of complex lease negotiations — structuring co-tenancy protections, enforcing landlord obligations, and capturing savings that institutional landlords count on tenants never finding. The platform exists because the gap between having a cotenancy clause and actually exercising it is almost entirely a monitoring and execution problem — not a legal one.
Cotenancy violations are one of the most consistently missed opportunities in commercial real estate. Landlords have entire asset management teams tracking occupancy. Most tenants have no one watching at all. By the time a violation is discovered — if it ever is — months or years of savings are already gone.
CoTenancyIQ levels that playing field. We monitor every property in your portfolio daily, cross-reference live occupancy data against the specific thresholds and cure periods in your leases, and generate AI-drafted legal notices the day a violation is confirmed. What used to require a specialist law firm and a dedicated lease administrator now happens automatically — for any tenant, any portfolio, any size.
The platform operates across three layers, designed to work together as a complete cotenancy management system.
Every property in your portfolio is scanned daily against live occupancy data, anchor tenant news, and SEC filings from major REITs. Violations are detected the day they occur.
When a violation is confirmed, CoTenancyIQ generates cure notices, rent election letters, and termination notices in minutes — pre-populated with your specific clause terms, dates, and financial calculations.
Upload any retail lease PDF and our AI extracts every cotenancy provision — threshold percentages, anchor requirements, cure periods, remedy waterfalls, and termination rights — in seconds.
CoTenancyIQ is built for every professional who represents retail tenant interests.
Independent retailers, multi-location operators, and the advisors who represent them. If you have cotenancy clauses in your leases and properties in centers with vacancy risk, CoTenancyIQ watches those rights around the clock so you don't have to.
Law firms, in-house counsel, and real estate advisors who represent retail tenants. CoTenancyIQ surfaces violations, generates first-draft notices for attorney review, and maintains a complete audit trail of monitoring activity as legal evidence — reducing the time and cost of enforcement.
CoTenancyIQ handles sensitive lease data, financial information, and legal correspondence. We take data security seriously and have implemented technical controls aligned with the standards below — with formal third-party attestation on our roadmap.
All data is encrypted at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.3). Authentication uses signed tokens with per-account data scoping, and row-level data isolation is being expanded across all tables as part of our SOC 2 readiness program. AI-generated legal notices are saved as drafts and require your explicit action before sending. You can request deletion of your data at any time.
CoTenancyIQ uses proprietary AI to parse lease documents, analyze occupancy data, and draft legal notices. We are transparent about when AI is involved — every AI-generated output carries a clear disclaimer and is flagged for attorney review before any legal action is taken.
We log every AI call in an auditable governance record visible to each user in their account settings. Our AI does not train on your lease data. We do not sell or share your data with third parties.
CoTenancyIQ is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. All notices generated by the platform should be reviewed by qualified legal counsel before delivery.
