Built for the way auction packs actually arrive.

Hundreds of pages, mixed scans, inconsistent file names. Lens classifies each document, extracts the parts that matter, and joins them up.

What Lens reads

  • Title register & plan
    Official Copies, registered charges, restrictions
  • Local authority searches
    CON29, LLC1, planning history
  • TA6 & TA10
    Seller property and contents disclosures
  • EPC
    Energy rating, MEES exposure for lettings
  • Special conditions
    Auction pack addenda, fees, completion terms
  • Leases & tenancy docs
    Where applicable — ground rent, service charges, term

What it surfaces

  • Restrictive covenants

    Use restrictions, alteration consents, and indemnity insurance flags pulled straight from the title.

  • MEES & EPC risk

    Sub-E rated stock that you cannot legally let after April 2028 without exemption.

  • Executor & ownership mismatches

    Vendor named on the contract does not match the registered proprietor or grant of probate.

  • Hidden auction fees

    Buyer premium, contribution to seller costs, completion timeframes, reservation fees.

  • Charges & insolvency

    Outstanding mortgages, bankruptcy entries, Form A restrictions you must clear at completion.

  • Search red flags

Frequently asked

How accurate is it?+

Lens is a triage tool, not a substitute for a conveyancer. It catches the obvious red flags fast so your solicitor can spend their time on the substantive issues. Every finding is cited to the source document — verify before bidding.

What does it cost?+

New accounts get 10 free analyses. After that, top up with credit packs from £9.99. One credit covers one full pack. Failed analyses are refunded automatically.

Which auction packs work?+

Any standard UK residential or commercial pack as a single ZIP. Lens has been tuned on packs from EIG, Allsop, Auction House, SDL, Pugh, and BidX1.

Is my data safe?+

Packs are stored encrypted, accessed only by your account, and never used to train third-party models. Delete an analysis from your dashboard at any time.

Will it replace my solicitor?+

No. Lens gives you a 3-minute view to decide which lots are worth a deeper legal review — and which to skip before paying for one.

Your next auction is on Tuesday.

Sign up, drop the first pack, get a triage report before lunch. 10 free analyses to try it on real lots.

Informational summary only — not legal advice. Always commission a full review by a qualified conveyancer before bidding.
