Wildau, 15 July 2026 — A good month after the beta launch, Boomerent has analysed around 15,000 square metres of commercial space. They are spread across around 150 leases held by companies with little in common beyond one question — whether their statements add up: bakery chains, pharmacies, studio operators, a startup incubator. The software reads leases, addenda and service-charge statements automatically, assigns the cost items and shows where the numbers diverge: from adjustment clauses through allocation keys to individual cost items. The findings so far include a discrepancy between the contractually agreed and the actual floor area, stepped rents at a different level than the lease sets out, and renewal options whose deadline was closer than the tenants realised. The leases span different decades and bring correspondingly different clauses with them. The beta has been running since June 2026, immediately after Boomerent GmbH was founded in Wildau, Brandenburg. The pilot customers are closely involved in shaping it.
What the leases contain
The range is the real test. A chain with around 50 sites brings in leases from different decades, each with its own clauses and adjustment mechanisms. A pharmacy has a single lease, but often complex service-charge items from a medical centre or shopping mall. In retail, turnover rent takes centre stage; for office space, it is the allocation keys for shared areas.
For the analysis that means: the difficulty is not volume but variety. Every lease type brings its own wording for the same thing.
What stood out
The findings are spread across very different parts of the lease.
At one pharmacy it was the floor area itself: the lease specified a different square-metre figure than the space actually provided. A discrepancy like that cuts twice: it affects the base rent and every service-charge item allocated by area.
Elsewhere it was stepped rents whose actual level did not match what the lease sets out. And repeatedly renewal options whose exercise deadline was considerably closer than the tenants realised. Miss it, and you negotiate from a weaker position afterwards, or you are left without a renewal at all.
What these cases have in common is that they do not surface in day-to-day business. Nobody re-measures the floor area after signing, checks every rent step against the bank statement, or puts option deadlines in the calendar. The figures sit in the lease and become the basis for the annual statement, year after year.
What comes next
You do not become a Boomerent pilot customer through a sign-up form. The circle grows slowly and selectively. Not because the platform could not handle more, but because every new customer means talking to them, understanding their leases, learning from their feedback. That does not multiply at will, and in this phase it is not meant to.
Whoever is on board now shapes what the platform looks like when it opens up more widely. Pilot customers are not at the end of our roadmap but inside it: they see what is coming next and say what is missing. Every lease that runs through the analysis shows where a clause means something other than what it says, and every piece of feedback goes into the next version.
What grows out of this reaches beyond the software. Anyone who goes through their leases and statements with us ends up talking about locations, expansion plans and which spaces will still pay off in future. Those conversations do not stop once the analysis is running. They are the actual reason we grow slowly.
The standard behind it is clear: an analysis has to be solid enough to take into a conversation with the landlord. For that, the range of leases matters more than their number — and a pilot customer who pushes back is worth more than ten who say nothing.
