THE PROBLEM
Operators report 70-80% of forecast prep is assembly.
Most of your CapEx forecast cycle isn't forecasting. It's chasing down what's installed where, what's under warranty, and what keeps breaking, scattered across tools that don't reconcile or was never captured at all. Weeks later you have a number you still can't trust, and if it misses, it lands on NOI, your investors, and the person who signed it.

HOW OYSTER CHANGES IT
From scattered data to a defensible number.
The asset directory houses every asset’s age, history, warranty, and document trail. CapEx Forecasts build bottoms-up from that record. When an investor or your COO questions a line, you click down to the work order and the documentation behind it, live, in the meeting. Weeks of assembly become minutes of review.

WHAT THE FORECAST PAYS BACK
The payoff doesn't stop at your forecast.
A forecast you can defend, built in a fraction of the time it takes today. And because the Asset Intelligence Layer powers insights across your entire org, the same data that sharpens your number makes the people around you better at their jobs. Explore how each team uses it:

Asset Management
Defensible, bottom-up CapEx without weeks of hand assembly, and more asset reviews covered each month because the research is done before the review starts.
Operations
Risk surfaced before it becomes a loss, with an adoption story that has no adoption in it: the field never leaves the app they already use.
Finance
A number you can put in front of investors, traceable to the document behind it, and capital tail risk identified before it lands.
Asset Management
Defensible, asset-level CapEx without weeks of manual assembly, so your team spends less time researching and more time reviewing the assets that matter.
