Why teams switch from (or add us to) Lone Wolf

Switch fully, or use us next to Lone Wolf.

Commissions that fit how you pay

Set up tiered splits, caps, fees, and referral splits yourself. CDAs and agent statements are made for you. No support ticket needed. The Commission Module is an optional add-on from $58/month on the $69 plan. It is not a general ledger: through Zapier, a Closed status can create the bill in QuickBooks.

AI does the typing

Drop in a contract. Pipeline AI builds or updates the transaction. AI Create fills in the address, parties, price and dates, citing every value. AI Update marks each change in an amendment, and nothing moves without your click.

Easy for your whole team

Free onboarding and a simple screen to start. Keep Lone Wolf for your MLS and forms, and email documents into Paperless Pipeline. Agent training usually takes 20 minutes, because agents mainly learn their MailDrop address. Real people answer by email, Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm Central.

Using Lone Wolf Transact and Paperless Pipeline together

Keep Transact for forms and signatures, and run the rest of the deal in Paperless Pipeline.

  1. 1. Fill and sign in Transact.

    Agents use Lone Wolf's licensed form library, as they do today.

  2. 2. Start the file from the contract.

    Drop the signed contract into Pipeline AI Create, or the agent emails it in.

  3. 3. Email the rest in.

    Export new documents from Transact and email them to the transaction's MailDrop address.

  4. 4. Review and pay.

    Missing required documents are flagged. With the optional Commission Module, the CDA comes from the same file.

Email delivery is not a two-way sync: send each amendment in, and AI Update lists the changes to apply.

Common questions

What is Lone Wolf Transact?+
Lone Wolf Transact is Lone Wolf's transaction management software for agents, teams, brokers, MLSs and associations. Lone Wolf lists licensed form libraries, an MLS data connection where available, compliance checklists and broker file review, with Authentisign e-signatures for an additional fee (as of November 2026). It is set to replace TransactionDesk over time.
Can I use Paperless Pipeline and Lone Wolf together?+
Yes. Many teams do. Keep Lone Wolf for your MLS and association forms. Email documents into Paperless Pipeline and run commissions, checklists, and reports there. Try it free on one live deal.
Can a Keller Williams team use Paperless Pipeline with Lone Wolf Transact?+
Yes. Keep filling in and signing forms in Lone Wolf Transact, then email the signed documents to the transaction's MailDrop address and run checklists and document review in Paperless Pipeline. Keller Williams teams such as The Epstein Partners in Santa Barbara use it. See Paperless Pipeline for Keller Williams teams.
Can you import our TransactionDesk files?+
Yes, with help. Setup, admin training and help importing your existing transactions are free, and open deals can come in by CSV. That is not a promise that every document, signature or history entry transfers automatically, so agree the scope first and save a copy of your TransactionDesk files.
Will I lose my MLS connection or association forms if I switch?+
Paperless Pipeline doesn't connect to the MLS or include a licensed forms library. Lone Wolf does. If you need those, use both. If you don't, our own forms and AI cover most teams.
Is Paperless Pipeline cheaper than Lone Wolf?+
They're priced differently, so it depends. Lone Wolf may already be part of your association or MLS dues. Paperless Pipeline is priced by transaction, with unlimited users and no contract: at 8 new transactions a month, the Up to 10 plan is $140/month. See every tier on the pricing page.
Does Lone Wolf have AI like Pipeline AI?+
Lone Wolf's Transact page lists automation such as importing MLS property details and pre-filling forms, not AI that reads a contract (as of November 2026), so ask Lone Wolf what your plan includes. Pipeline AI reads a contract and builds or updates the transaction, with monthly credits included at no charge.
How are your commissions different from Lone Wolf's?+
You set up splits, caps, and fees yourself, and CDAs and agent statements are made for you. No support request needed.
