Use case · Acquisition & LOI screening

Screen the parcel before the LOI — price the risk into the offer.

An LOI anchors a price before diligence has really begun. KILO lets you run a cited, parcel-level land-risk read first — so the number you put on the table already accounts for the exposure under the ground.

The problem

The price gets anchored before the risk is known.

Cultural-resource, water (wastewater + supply + quality + federal permits), and shoreline exposure usually surface deep in diligence — after the LOI, after the price is anchored, after the deal has its own momentum. Renegotiating then is expensive and often doesn't happen at all.

The data to screen a parcel exists in public sources. The only thing missing has been a way to assemble it fast enough to use at the LOI stage.

Before the letter of intent

A cited risk read in the time it takes to write the LOI.

Enter an address or TMK; KILO returns a risk band, a due-diligence synthesis verdict, and a confidence rating — every fired rule shown with its reasoning and the statute it triggers. It is a pre-decision signal, not a survey: enough to decide whether to anchor the price lower, add a diligence contingency, or pass.

Risk depends on what you build

The same parcel scores differently by disturbance footprint.

How much soil a project moves changes its cultural-resource exposure. KILO shows the score under each plausible disturbance footprint, so the screen matches the project you actually intend — not the parcel's worst case:

How it works

Three steps, before the LOI.

01
Screen the parcel
Enter the TMK and get the risk band and the due-diligence synthesis verdict before the price is anchored.
02
Match it to the project
The disturbance-footprint spread shows the score for the project you actually intend, not the parcel's worst case.
03
Set the number
Anchor the offer lower, write in a diligence contingency, or pass on the parcel.
