SpreadSpace vs UPTIQ

SpreadSpace gives commercial lenders a source-linked spread, an analyst-controlled canvas, and their own credit memo. UPTIQ automates multi-entity spreading and cited memo drafts; SpreadSpace keeps the analyst's selected adjustments and borrower-by-borrower review together in the working spread.

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

Pay only for extraction. No implementation fees.

Three reasons to choose SpreadSpace

Review the evidence behind every figure

SpreadSpace opens the source line behind a figure directly from the spread. Derived totals unfold into the lines that make them, so the reviewer can check the calculation as well as the printed amount. That review carries through to the memo.

Build the spread around the borrower

Arrange borrower and guarantor charts, tables, ratios and notes on a shared financial-analysis canvas. Select entities and periods for the exhibits and save the layout with the loan. Save an analysis layout as a reusable template for later loans. Reapply the selected visuals and arrangement to the new loan's data while keeping loan-specific comments and source links with the original review.

Carry the analysis into the memo

Build the lender's memo from reusable templates, analyst narrative and selected spread exhibits. Keep source-linked figures available in the memo workspace, then export the completed credit write-up. Finalize the spread to save versioned financial attributes and ratios with separate tax-return, book-basis and company-reported figures. Retrieve configured DSCR, custom ratio results and analyst adjustments through the API, alongside a documents-only comparison and source document IDs.

Why SpreadSpace is the stronger choice

SpreadSpace is the stronger choice for credit teams that want to shape the analysis around the deal. Analysts open the supporting document, inspect derivations, and choose the basis and adjustments for each entity. The team can arrange borrower and guarantor views together and carry reviewed exhibits into its own memo. UPTIQ provides source citations and review controls too; SpreadSpace's case is the hands-on workflow from financial evidence to the credit argument.

Choose SpreadSpace when

  • Lenders reviewing business and personal returns need supporting schedules, K-1 ownership, and the source line behind each figure available in the spread.
  • Credit teams compare every borrower and guarantor on one canvas while keeping each entity’s income basis, adjustments, and DSCR under analyst control.
  • Rental-property lenders need Form 8825 and Schedule E Part I income, itemized expenses, and depreciation with years side by side.
  • Analysts reviewing bank activity need counterparty relationships and return-based affiliate evidence before treating a payment as an operating expense.
  • Committees require the lender’s own memo format, with reviewed charts and tables that retain their source links.
  • Lenders can embed the financial-review workspace and connect document intake to their existing loan workflow.

How the workflows compare

  • UPTIQ combines spreading, scorecards, and drafted memos within a configured underwriting agent.
  • SpreadSpace lets analysts assemble their working spread around the loan's entities, source lines, and selected adjustments.
  • The lender's memo carries the reviewed analysis and the context the credit team chooses to explain.

Questions lenders ask

Does SpreadSpace replace UPTIQ?

Yes, for the commercial spreading, analysis, and memo workflow. SpreadSpace extracts the document detail, gives the analyst a shared canvas, and carries reviewed exhibits into the lender’s own memo template. The lender’s origination system continues to hold the loan record.

How long does it take to add SpreadSpace to a loan origination system?

Implementation depends on the lender’s authentication, document routing and data handoff. The embedded workspace and the upload webhook are the two pieces. A developer follows the versioned API guide, or a coding agent follows the integration skill file, and extracted lines return through the API.

How does SpreadSpace preserve the detail in a tax return?

The spread includes the credit-bearing lines and supporting statements on business and personal returns, including depreciation, amortization, net operating loss history, and affiliations. A large return can produce more than 500 usable lines. Tax and book views retain their own derivations, and every source-backed line can open its boxed position on the document.

What happens to K-1s and guarantor documents?

Each K-1 stays paired with its own supporting statements and attaches to the owner it names. Later personal returns, personal financial statements, and K-1s for that person join the same entity. The analyst can compare those guarantors with the borrower on one canvas while keeping each calculation’s entity and basis clear.

Can SpreadSpace analyze rental income property by property?

Form 8825 and Schedule E Part I become schedules of rental income, itemized operating expenses, and depreciation with years side by side. Form 8825 properties continue across continuation sheets, and each Schedule E Part I property retains its expense detail. The expense fold shows the printed depreciation line, with asset detail available in the return viewer’s depreciation register.

How can a reviewer check a figure in the spread or memo?

A source-backed figure opens the document with the line boxed. A derived total opens the contributing rows so the reviewer can follow the calculation and its source lines. Imported memo visuals retain those links, and the lender’s company-wide template keeps the committee’s format.

Can analysts control adjustments and preserve their review?

The analyst chooses EBITDA add-backs on the selected book or tax basis and configures DSCR per entity and year as a named recipe on the loan. Classification overrides survive later automation, and an opt-in permission allows extracted values to be edited and reset under audit. Shared comments, action history, and board revisions preserve the review around those choices.

How is SpreadSpace priced against UPTIQ?

SpreadSpace charges only for extraction usage, with volume discounts. We never charge implementation or procurement fees. The API, embedded workspace, financial spreading, source review and memo builder are included in extraction pricing. Contact sales for pricing based on your document volume.
