Smartfile uses AI to read and summarise property documents — like LIMs, building reports, and EQC or NHC records — so you can quickly understand the key points without having to wade through pages of technical detail.
Create a free account and add your property. Upload documents and images directly to your property card. All your files stay organised in one place for easy access.
Currently, Smartfile works best with PDFs. Save Word documents as a PDF before uploading them to Smartfile.
You can upload LIM reports, building inspections, EQC/NHC documents, Body Corporate documents, council files, insurance reports and most other reports related to the property. If you’re unsure, upload it anyway; Smartfile will let you know if it can be used. Check out our resources page for more.
Most of the information about a property is held by the local council. Real estate agents often gather these documents to help potential buyers. If you’ve received documents from the agent, you can upload them directly for analysis, and add any other documents you might have yourself. Check out our resources page for more.
Most files are summarised within a few minutes. If a document is especially large or hard to read, it might take a little longer, but Smartfile will indicate the progress.
Yes. Use the Query feature to ask about any aspect of your property documents. Get clear, direct answers without searching through pages of information.
No, Smartfile does not create floor plans. However, if a floor plan or specification diagram is included in your uploaded property files, Smartfile can extract key details from it.
Yes. Our service helps you understand what’s in the documents—but it doesn’t replace legal advice. A qualified conveyancer or lawyer should still review everything before you make any final decisions.
AI is powerful, but not perfect. Our summaries are designed to help you spot the key issues faster—but they aren’t a substitute for expert advice. If something doesn’t seem right, or if you’re unsure, it’s always best to check with a lawyer or property professional.
Yes. Your documents and data are stored securely. We don’t share your information without your permission, and we follow best practices to keep everything private.
