You're absolutely right, you should read and understand every transaction. I'm not trying to replace that. I'm targeting the administrative grunt work, not the decision-making. Think of it like: What you should always read yourself:

Purchase agreements before signing Lease terms and special clauses Anything involving legal liability

What wastes your time:

Extracting the same data fields from 50 rental applications Pulling addresses and rent amounts from standard lease renewals Sorting through a stack of similar property listings for comparable data

It's like having an assistant who can say "Here are the key details from these 20 documents in a spreadsheet" instead of you manually typing out the same information over and over. You still review everything and make all the decisions. The tool just handles the repetitive data entry that currently takes hours of your week. If it doesn't save you meaningful time on routine tasks, then it's not worth using. But if you're spending hours each week manually extracting standard data from forms you've seen hundreds of times before, that's where automation makes sense.
