The Buildout alternative for offering memoranda
Teams usually look past Buildout when they want to spin up a single OM without committing to a per-seat platform, or when they hit its template rigidity and want to draft and edit copy directly instead of filling a fixed layout. omgen takes a different path: drop in an address and get a branded, editable OM draft in minutes, with every fact labeled by source so you stay in control before export.

Which should you pick?

Frequently asked questions
- Is omgen a full replacement for Buildout?
- No. Buildout is a broad platform spanning CRM, listings, email, and collateral. omgen is focused on one job: turning an address into a branded, editable OM draft fast. If you only need the OM, omgen does that without a per-seat platform subscription; if you need a brokerage-wide CRM and listing system, Buildout covers more ground.
- Do I need a subscription to use omgen like I do with Buildout?
- No. omgen is free to draft and edit; you pay once per OM when you export the clean PDF, and re-exports of that OM are free. There is no required subscription, which fits the occasional listing better than a per-seat platform.
- Can I edit the OM copy directly, not just fill a template?
- Yes. omgen drafts each section, then lets you edit in place, regenerate a weak section, regenerate with an instruction, lock what's approved, and view the source of every fact. That directly addresses the template-rigidity complaint about platform tools.
