Comparison

AcquiOS vs. PropRise

PropRise extracts data from broker PDFs into your Excel model. AcquiOS does that and then validates every assumption against market comps, detects conflicts of interest, manages due diligence, and generates your IC memo and deck. If you are evaluating both, the answer is usually AcquiOS. This page explains why.

What Each Platform Does Best

PropRise: Extraction Only

PropRise built Primer to automate one step: copying numbers from broker PDFs into your Excel model. It ingests OMs, rent rolls, and T12s, maps extracted data into your template, and cites the source for every cell. When two documents show different figures for the same line item, it flags the conflict. That is where Primer stops.

Once your model is populated, everything else still falls to your team: validating whether those assumptions are defensible, verifying rent comps against the market, screening for conflicts of interest, managing the due diligence process, and producing the IC memo and deck. PropRise does not do any of that. If extraction is your only bottleneck and you have strong processes for everything downstream, Primer can help. But most teams discover the bottleneck does not end at data entry.

AcquiOS: Deal Analysis from Intake to IC

AcquiOS starts where Primer starts and continues through everything that happens after the model is built. The platform converts an OM into a fully populated underwriting model in 90 seconds, including proforma, sensitivity analysis, and valuation. It then validates every key assumption against live market comps: not just flagging where numbers disagree across documents, but where a broker's assumptions diverge from what the market actually supports.

AcquiOS also screens for conflicts of interest, flagging relationships between deal parties that may affect the reliability of assumptions or introduce structural bias. Rental rates are verified against public market databases independently. From there, the platform supports due diligence project management with Gantt timelines, gate reviews, and document tracking, and outputs a complete investment memo and IC deck to your existing PowerPoint template.

Pipeline management is built in via email-to-deal creation: forward a broker email with an attached OM and AcquiOS automatically creates the pipeline entry, runs extraction, validates assumptions, and scores the deal. Customers include Gelt, Concord Companies, and AIT Worldwide.

Key Differences

Extraction vs Full Analysis

The sharpest difference between PropRise and AcquiOS is scope. Primer ends once the data is in your model, accurately attributed and flagged for internal discrepancies. What you do with that populated model, whether it is validating broker assumptions, running comps, reviewing for conflicts, managing due diligence, or producing a memo, happens outside of Primer. AcquiOS covers those steps inside the same platform.

This is not a criticism of PropRise. Primer does extraction well. But if your workflow challenge extends beyond "how do I get the numbers into my model" to "how do I know if these numbers are correct" or "how do I move from model to IC memo without rebuilding everything," Primer alone does not cover that ground.

Assumption Validation Is the Analytical Gap

Primer reconciles numbers across documents and flags internal inconsistencies. It does not tell you whether a broker's rent growth assumption of 4.5% annually is justified given current market conditions, or whether the stabilized cap rate exit assumption is out of range for the submarket. That analytical layer requires access to market comp data and the logic to compare a specific deal's inputs against it.

AcquiOS does this explicitly. Assumption validation against market comps is one of AcquiOS's core features, as is rental rate verification, which runs an independent agent to confirm or challenge the broker's rent comparables. Teams at Gelt and Concord Companies use this to catch aggressive assumptions before they reach committee.

Conflict Detection: Data vs Relationship

Both products flag conflicts, but they catch different things. Primer flags when the same figure appears with a different value in two source documents, for example when the OM's stated NOI differs from what the T12 actually shows. That is an extraction-level conflict and it is genuinely useful.

AcquiOS adds structural and relationship conflict detection. Structural conflicts include cases where modeled assumptions are internally inconsistent. Relationship conflicts surface potential conflicts of interest among parties involved in the transaction, which is a risk management layer with no equivalent in Primer.

Where PropRise Has the Edge

PropRise has put considerable effort into extraction accuracy and document type coverage. Their source citation at the cell level gives analysts a strong audit trail. For teams that need to review dozens of facilities per week and whose primary bottleneck is data entry, Primer is a tightly focused tool with a short onboarding time and a clear ROI story.

PropRise also has specific self-storage vertical depth. Primer handles self-storage unit mix and rate sheet extraction natively, and Beacon provides site-selection analytics specific to self-storage developers. If your portfolio is predominantly self-storage and deal volume is your main constraint, PropRise's vertical focus is a real advantage.

When to Choose AcquiOS

You need to know if the numbers are right, not just where they came from.
Primer tells you which document a number came from. AcquiOS tells you whether that number is defensible. Assumption validation against live market comps, rental rate verification, and broker outlier detection run automatically on every deal. That is the difference between a populated model and a validated one.
You want one platform from OM to IC, not a chain of tools.
PropRise stops at the populated model. Everything after, assumption validation, due diligence coordination, risk scoring, IC memo and deck production, is still manual. AcquiOS covers the full chain in one platform and outputs everything to your existing Excel and PowerPoint templates. No rebuilding, no re-entering data, no switching tools.
Conflict of interest detection is part of your risk process.
PropRise flags data discrepancies between documents. AcquiOS goes further and screens for relationship-level conflicts of interest among deal parties. For institutional teams with LP disclosure requirements or governance obligations around conflict declarations, this is a capability with no direct equivalent in Primer.
You want broker emails to become analyzed deals automatically.
Forward a broker OM email to AcquiOS and the platform creates the pipeline entry, runs extraction, validates every assumption, and scores the deal. No one touches it manually. PropRise has no pipeline layer. If your team is processing inbound deal flow by hand, that is hours per week AcquiOS eliminates entirely.
Your deal mix spans asset classes beyond self-storage.
PropRise has the deepest vertical investment in self-storage, where both Primer and Beacon are purpose-built. AcquiOS is designed for mixed commercial real estate and private equity deal flow across office, multifamily, industrial, retail, and other asset classes, with customers like Gelt and Concord Companies operating across a diverse portfolio.

The Bottom Line

PropRise solves data entry. AcquiOS solves deal analysis. If your team spends hours per deal on extraction, Primer addresses that specific pain. But if your team also spends time validating broker assumptions, chasing rent comps, coordinating due diligence, and building IC memos, you are solving the wrong problem. AcquiOS covers extraction and every step after it, in the same platform, in your templates.

The teams that choose AcquiOS are not choosing more software. They are choosing to stop stitching together extraction tools, spreadsheet validators, project trackers, and memo builders and replacing that stack with one system that handles the full deal analysis workflow from OM to IC.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I use PropRise and AcquiOS together?

In principle, yes, but in practice there is significant overlap. Both tools extract deal documents into your Excel model and output to your existing template. Running both for the same function creates redundancy. Where they do not overlap is in everything AcquiOS handles after extraction: assumption validation, conflict detection, due diligence PM, risk scoring, and memo generation. Teams evaluating both should ask which platform they want to own their underwriting workflow end to end.

2. How does AcquiOS handle self-storage deals specifically?

AcquiOS extracts from self-storage OMs, unit mix schedules, and T12s and validates assumptions against market comps for that asset class. While PropRise has built more dedicated self-storage tooling, particularly Beacon for site selection, AcquiOS covers self-storage as part of its broader CRE platform. If self-storage is your dominant asset class and you also need site selection, PropRise's vertical stack is worth a look. If self-storage is part of a mixed portfolio, AcquiOS handles it without requiring a separate product.

3. Does AcquiOS preserve my existing Excel and PowerPoint templates the same way Primer does?

Yes. AcquiOS learns your template structure and populates output into your format: same tabs, same formulas, same layout your team already uses. This applies to both the Excel underwriting model and the PowerPoint investment memo. PropRise's Primer also maps to your Excel template. The difference is that AcquiOS extends template preservation to the memo and deck stage, where PropRise stops at the model.

4. What does AcquiOS mean by "broker assumption validation"?

Brokers prepare offering memorandums with forward-looking assumptions on rent growth, vacancy, exit cap rate, and market rent per unit that may be optimistic. AcquiOS compares each of these assumptions against market comp data and flags any that fall outside the range of what the market actually supports. This is distinct from flagging a discrepancy between two documents. It is asking: even if the broker's OM is internally consistent, is the underlying assumption realistic? PropRise does not perform this check.

5. How does AcquiOS pricing compare to PropRise?

PropRise does not publish pricing publicly for Primer. AcquiOS pricing is based on deal volume: the Growth plan covers 20 deals per month on one template, and the Enterprise plan scales to 300 deals per month across three templates. Because AcquiOS covers more of the workflow, the relevant comparison is not just per-extraction cost but the total cost of the tooling stack you would need to replicate the same outputs.
