The #1 Abrigo alternative for financial spreading

SpreadSpace gives lenders on Abrigo a detailed view of the returns and rental properties behind repayment capacity. Abrigo is a lending and credit risk platform with spreading as one module.

An extracted figure opens its supporting document with the printed line boxed.

Three reasons to choose SpreadSpace

Compare rental income by property

SpreadSpace turns Form 8825 and Schedule E Part I into a property schedule with years side by side. Each property keeps its income, itemized operating expenses and printed depreciation line, with the supporting figures available for review. Analysts can isolate a building and see what changed before relying on the total.

Review beyond the return totals

SpreadSpace extracts the supporting statements, loss carryovers and asset registers behind the tax return totals. Each figure opens its boxed source line, and arithmetic checks expose differences for review. Analysts can examine the details that change repayment capacity without reconstructing the packet by hand.

Keep the spread on the loan

SpreadSpace opens as a tab inside Abrigo, with the workspace and upload webhook connected in a day. New loan documents enter the analysis through the webhook, and finalized spread data returns through the API. The lender keeps the loan record, pipeline and booking in its existing system.

Why SpreadSpace is the stronger choice

SpreadSpace is the stronger choice for lenders that need to understand what sits behind a borrower's totals. Property schedules expose income, expenses and depreciation across years, while supporting return schedules and source links let analysts investigate differences. Each entity retains its own coverage and adjustments on a shared canvas. SpreadSpace connects in a day, and Abrigo keeps the loan record, pipeline and booking.

Choose SpreadSpace when

  • Your analysts on Abrigo want the whole return on the spread, including the depreciation and amortization registers, the net operating loss history and the affiliate schedule that sit behind the first pages, with every figure boxed to its source.
  • You want a figure's source line to open in the spread, and the math behind a derived figure to fold open beneath it, from the spread and from the memo.
  • You underwrite rental real estate and want every property on Form 8825 and Schedule E Part I as its own row, with gross rents, the itemized expense lines, depreciation and income year over year.
  • You spread multi-entity deals with several guarantors and want every Schedule K-1 paired with its own statements and attached to the right person without hand linking, with every entity on the loan on one canvas.
  • You want the tax return worked on both a tax basis and a book basis, with a statement of cash flows derived from the return that foots to Schedule L and a book P&L bridge for every return year.
  • You want to keep the loan record, the pipeline and booking in Abrigo and add the spread as a tab in a day, with a public API and three SDKs, and every finalized spread returned through the API.

Where Abrigo falls short

  • Spreading is one module of the lending platform, so its deployment is tied to that platform.
  • The API requires an additional subscription on top of the enterprise license.
  • Assistant-generated narrative still needs the lender's review before it becomes a credit conclusion.

Compare SpreadSpace and Abrigo

SpreadSpace and Abrigo, feature by feature
FeatureSpreadSpaceAbrigo
Integration
Versioned API with three SDKs and an agent guide

One REST API with a dated version pinned per request, three hand-typed SDKs in TypeScript, Python and C#, fourteen signed webhook event types with automatic retries, and a skill file that lets a coding agent build the embed and the webhook receiver.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Loan-inbox intake with automatic linking

A webhook forwards every file that lands in a loan's inbox to an intake endpoint that resolves the borrower and the loan from your own reference, and a repeat upload of content already extracted is answered as a duplicate rather than processed twice.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Documents and extraction
Tax detail with boxed source review

Every line of Form 1065, Form 1120-S, Form 1120 and Form 1040 with their schedules, every Schedule K-1 in the packet, the supporting statement behind every overflow line and the per asset depreciation registers, so a large return yields several hundred lines with a box on every figure. Every parent return checks its own arithmetic, and a failing check ships as an underwriting signal beside the data.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Schedule K-1 pairing and owner linking

Each K-1 is bound to its own supporting statements by a cascade of printed name, partner number, page order and capital account, and its recipient is matched to a person on the loan by identifier, name and address, so a K-1 that lands days later still reaches the right guarantor. No fuzzy person matching exists anywhere, so an unmatched name stays unmatched rather than guessed.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Asset registers with source jumps and total checks

Form 4562 is read in every part, and the preparer's per asset registers, the hundreds of pages behind the totals, are read row by row, with the printed asset fields retained and every printed register total checked against its rows. The register is its own tab on the return viewer with a source jump per asset row.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Net operating loss history and carryovers

Net operating loss carryforward schedules come in as typed rows of loss sustained, previously applied, remaining and available this year, with Form 8990 interest limitation carryforwards, Form 8582 passive losses, Form 6198 at risk limits and Form 7203 basis limits read into their own objects.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Source-backed statements and aligned workbook periods

Company P&L statements, balance sheets, cash flow statements, receivable and payable agings, debt schedules and personal financial statements are read from PDF and from Excel, mapped to 43 canonical concepts with every printed total recomputed and compared, and a workbook whose periods are scattered across tabs or files is triaged, fanned out per year and stitched into one standard statement.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Bank transactions with counterparties and sources

Every transaction from 234 registered bank layouts with its date, description, signed amount, check number, kind and page box, a balance for every day, and overdraft, insufficient funds, chargeback, returned item and service fee signals. Each transaction rolls up under a named counterparty in one of 58 classes across 13 sections, and every financing relationship, merchant cash advances included, is found from payment cadence and the transaction text.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Analysis
Derivations behind every figure

A derived figure carries a derivation arrow that folds open to the printed lines that sum to it, from book gain on dispositions to book depreciation, capex and every line of the cash flow statement. A composed figure boxes every line it sums on the source page.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Tax basis and book basis

Every return is recorded on both a tax basis and a book basis, and the analyst can use either one or both, with a book P&L bridge for every return year.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Statement of cash flows from the return

One statement of cash flows per return year is derived from the return, in operating, investing and financing blocks that tie to the change in cash on Schedule L. It renders as a bridge and as the formal three block table.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Basis-aware EBITDA with line-level add-backs

EBITDA starts from the company statements, from the return on a book basis or from ordinary business income on a tax basis, and the add-backs picker lists every printed line and statement item with its values by year and a checkbox per year. Add-backs follow the basis the analyst chose.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Per-entity DSCR from selected document lines

Coverage is configured per entity and per year from the documents' own lines, with debt service assembled from the Schedule L liability balances, the business debt schedule and the implied debt schedule from the bank statements, pro forma with proposed debt and historical, and saved as a named recipe on the loan that renders as its own card.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Rental real estate by property

Every property on Form 8825, across continuation sheets, and each property on Schedule E Part I becomes a row with income, itemized operating expenses and printed depreciation, with years side by side. Each property keeps its source lines, while Form 4562 and the depreciation registers provide the supporting depreciation detail in the return viewer.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Entities and guarantors
Return-detected affiliates and bank reclassification

Every affiliated and intercompany entity named anywhere on the business and personal returns lands on one schedule, ownership link or not, K-1 or not, from the ownership tables on Form 1120 and Form 1120-S, the issuer behind every K-1, affiliates named in return statements, the personal return's pass through and qualified business income rosters, and related party receivable and payable lines. The schedule feeds the entity roster and re-tags matching bank counterparties to intercompany with the naming line boxed.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Every entity on one canvas

Every business and person on the loan is reconciled from the documents' printed names, with spelling drift folded and the EIN last four splitting or uniting names, and appears in the entity selector, so cards from several filers sit on one canvas with no fixed cap on how many. A K-1, a personal return and a personal financial statement gather on the same person without hand linking.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Guarantor documents paired to the same person

The Guarantors surface lists partners and owners with a personal guarantor status per row, and a partner's profile shows the Schedule K-1 by year beside a bank rail of distributions, guaranteed payments and the owner's net draw, with the drawn rate compared against the declared take. A person entity has its own DSCR sheet over the personal financial statement's income lines.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Counterparty rollup and overrides

Transactions roll up by counterparty with money in, money out, net, business type, class and relationship, the speculative ones held in an under review section, and an analyst override of a class or relationship stands above every heuristic, survives every reprocess and is never re-inferred. Confirming one row pools its byte exact siblings so nothing is moved twice.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Working the spread
Free placement and resizing on a canvas

The spread is a canvas rather than a form. Every chart, table, KPI card, text box, line and comment pin lands where the pointer releases, drags anywhere, resizes from any edge and magnifies on its own axis, and the canvas grows sideways and downward as the work needs it.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Source-linked visual catalog and custom builder

Four catalogs, Tax, Bank, Company reported and Custom, with 59 curated tax cards, 40 company reported cards, 13 personal return and personal financial statement cards, 14 personal KPI cards and 20 bank tiles with 7 bank KPI cards, plus per partner, per owner and per K-1 issuer card sets minted from the documents themselves.

IncludedNot demonstrated
The builder and line-level search

Any extracted line becomes a graph, a ratio with real operators and per term multipliers, an aggregate or a KPI card, picked from a searchable list of the return's lines under thirteen groups, the company statements, the personal return and the personal financial statement, and the built visual keeps the source jump on every line it reads.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Reusable canvas layouts without loan comments

A finished board saves as a global template that carries its visuals and arrangement to every loan of that type, re-aimed at that loan's filers, while comments, placed pictures, source links and loan bound cards stay behind on the loan that wrote them.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Shared canvas with comments pinned to visuals

Up to twenty five analysts work one board with live cursors, selections and drags, comment threads pinned to a visual or a bare point on the canvas, prose linked to a source line, and every save kept as a restorable revision.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Memo, hand off and audit
Company memo template with source-linked figures

Upload your existing memo as a PDF or a Word file and it is rebuilt from the builder's own blocks over the page, made once and shared across the team, and a Word template can stay a Word document with the exhibits anchored into its flow.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Vector memo visuals retaining source links

Spread visuals import into the memo as vector graphics that stay sharp at any size, the figures are re-derived on the server at print time, and a figure in the memo keeps its source link so a click opens the same boxed line from the memo.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Finalized snapshot with a machine comparison

Finalizing freezes the board into an immutable snapshot of 124 attributes and 21 ratios that Abrigo fetches by id, with a machine twin built from the documents alone beside it so a reviewer sees exactly what the analyst changed, and the finalized event carries identifiers, never figures.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Audited figure corrections and persistent reclassification

An analyst edits a figure or caption in place, the override applies before every derivation above it, each edit records the label, the column and the previous and new state on the spreading log, and a revert restores the extracted figure with its own log row. Restating a figure is its own permission and its own opt-in API grant.

IncludedNot demonstrated
Immutable log with one-click undo

Every action lands in an append only log that records who, what, when and the before and after values, kept immutably for up to seven years, and a mistake from last week comes out with one undo from the log even after later actions, with the undo itself logged.

Running SpreadSpace with Abrigo

SpreadSpace runs inside Abrigo as a tab on the loan record, under whatever name your administrator chooses, and the workspace inside carries no SpreadSpace branding. When a document lands in the loan's inbox, a webhook forwards it to SpreadSpace, and the loan links itself the moment the file arrives. Every finalized spread returns through the API as an immutable snapshot of 124 attributes and 21 ratios, so Abrigo keeps the loan record, the pipeline and booking while the spread lives where the analyst already works. The workspace is bundled with the cost of extraction.

Questions lenders ask

Does SpreadSpace replace Abrigo?

Yes. SpreadSpace takes over the spreading, the analysis and the memo, extracting every line of the returns, the statements and the bank statements, building the spread on a canvas in a tab on the loan, configuring adjusted EBITDA and DSCR per entity and per year, and filling your own memo template. You keep the loan record, the pipeline and booking in Abrigo, and every finalized spread returns to it through the API.

How long does it take to add SpreadSpace to Abrigo?

A day. The embedded workspace and the upload webhook are the two pieces. The workspace mounts as a tab on the loan record, the webhook forwards every file that reaches the loan's inbox, and a developer follows the integration guide or hands the skill file to a coding agent that builds both legs.

Can SpreadSpace build a rental real estate schedule from the returns?

Every property on Form 8825, across continuation sheets, and each property on Schedule E Part I becomes one row matched across years by street address, with gross rents, the itemized expense lines folded behind the total, depreciation from Form 4562 and the depreciation schedules, and income or loss, plus a totals block per year. The rental bridge draws rents, expenses and income for every year the schedule covers, the expense breakdown stacks each property by category, and every figure and every segment opens its boxed line on the return.

Can SpreadSpace read the same tax returns Abrigo spreads?

Every line of the return comes through, including the per asset depreciation registers that run to hundreds of pages, the net operating loss carryforward schedule, the supporting statement behind every overflow line and the affiliate schedule, and a large return yields several hundred lines each with a box on its figure. The return is recorded on both a tax basis and a book basis, with a folded derivation behind every derived figure.

What does SpreadSpace do with Schedule K-1s?

Each K-1 in a packet is read on its own, issuer, recipient, ownership percents, capital account and every coded box, with a catalog of 1,305 code meanings turning each code into the item it denotes. Its supporting statements bind to it by printed name, partner number, page order and capital figures, and its recipient is matched to a person on the loan by identifier, name and address, so that person's returns and personal financial statements gather in one pool. No figure on a tax return or a financial statement comes from a language model, and a long K-1 packet is never cut short by a context window.

Does SpreadSpace use AI to read the return?

No figure on a tax return or a financial statement comes from a language model. Extraction is proprietary, and AI handles document screening and splitting. The spreading module in Abrigo reads the return with AI and OCR, and an assistant drafts the narrative.

Is there an audit trail?

Every analyst action lands in an append only log that records who acted, what changed, when, and the before and after values, and no row in it can be edited or deleted. The history is kept immutably for up to seven years on every plan, with the last ninety days live in the app and the whole of it exportable. A mistake from last week comes out with one undo from the log even after later actions, and the undo is itself logged rather than erasing the record.

How is SpreadSpace priced against Abrigo?

The workspace is bundled with the cost of extraction, so there is no separate charge for the tab inside Abrigo, and a test mode key runs the whole integration against a sandbox at no charge. Contact sales for a quote sized to your document volume. The Abrigo API is an additional subscription on top of the enterprise license.
