The problem it solves

Important contract dates, like renewal deadlines or termination windows, are easy to lose track of when contracts are scattered across folders that nobody reads regularly. Missing one of these dates can cost you money or leave you stuck in a contract you meant to exit.

Who it fits

Small businesses and legal or operations teams that manage a steady flow of contracts.

How it works

  1. A new contract uploaded to a watched Google Drive folder starts the process
  2. The system reads the document and pulls out the contract ID, parties, dates, and key terms
  3. The details are logged as a new row in Google Sheets
  4. Google Calendar gets a reminder set for the key dates
  5. Your team is notified in Slack that a new contract was processed
What you get

Deadlines you hear about before they arrive

Every contract you upload gets its key terms and dates logged automatically, and your team gets a reminder before any deadline sneaks up.

What you get

A logged record of every contract's key terms and dates, plus calendar reminders and a Slack notification.

What you need

A Google Workspace account for Drive, Sheets, and Calendar, a Slack workspace, and a VLM Run API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
