The Yardi alternative.
Yardi was built in 1984 for real estate property management. Gridlync was built today for infrastructure land (ROW, easement, surface use) with AI and a modern interface.
About Yardi Systems
Founded in 1984, Yardi Systems is the long-standing standard in commercial and residential real estate property management. Strong accounting, leasing, and asset management capabilities used by REITs and property managers, with energy add-ons for operators with real-estate-adjacent portfolios. The core product was designed for property management workflows and adapted to other use cases over decades.
About Gridlync
Gridlync is the operating system for infrastructure land agreements. Upload contracts in any format (PDFs, scanned documents, or spreadsheets) and Gridlync ingests them, structures every clause, automates payments and escalators, and surfaces every obligation before it costs you. One platform across every asset class: pipelines, solar, wind, transmission, data centers, fiber, and beyond.
How Gridlync is different
- Built for ROW, easement, and surface use. Gridlync handles infrastructure-specific clauses out of the box. No mapping property management workflows onto pipeline, transmission, or renewable land realities.
- AI ingestion, not data entry. Drop in your portfolio and Gridlync extracts every clause and escalator automatically. No structured module-by-module import.
- A single product, not a suite. Payments, escalators, renewals, compliance, and reporting in one fast app. Not Voyager + Energy + accounting + analytics each with their own UI.
- Days to onboard, not months. Modern self-service onboarding. No consultant-led implementation, no per-module configuration project.
- Real human support. Product engineers reply the same day. Not enterprise support tiers, not regional account teams.

Energy and infrastructure operators using Yardi modules but managing pipeline, transmission, or renewables land agreements that real estate software was never designed for.
