Designed around inspectable assumptions and source notes.

Why not just ask AI?

You are buying a working model, not a paragraph.

Persistent structure: formulas, tabs, databases, or linked views keep assumptions connected after the chat window is gone.

Local data scaffolding: Bay Area city and neighborhood assumptions are preloaded so you start from a local model instead of a blank prompt.

Decision memory: the tool preserves scenarios, rankings, notes, and source checks you can revisit with a partner, lender, agent, or roommate.

What this replaces

Memory-based apartment comparisons and last-minute application chaos.

Weighted comparison matrix for up to 10 apartments

Application tracker with document and follow-up fields

Move-in cost estimator for deposit, furniture, movers, and utilities

Tenant rights lookup and rent-negotiation scripts

Use it when

The decision needs structure before emotion takes over.
