Everything You Need to Manage Contracts Properly

From onboarding new clients and suppliers through to signatures, renewals, and audit trails — plus AI agent integration. Twelve capabilities that cover the complete contract lifecycle.

Feature 01

Client & Supplier Onboarding

Eliminate manual data entry and paper-based onboarding. Our intelligent system collects, validates, and organizes all client and supplier information — reducing onboarding time from days to minutes.

Smart Data Collection

  • Custom onboarding forms with conditional logic — fields change based on entity type
  • Support for individuals, companies, trusts, and partnerships
  • AI-powered extraction from ID documents and registration certificates

Compliance & Risk

  • B-BBEE certificate collection with automatic level verification
  • Document expiration monitoring with automated email reminders
  • Risk scoring based on collected information and document completeness
Feature 02

Contract Creation & AI Extraction

Create contracts in seconds, not hours. Whether you're starting from a template or uploading existing agreements, our AI-powered system handles the heavy lifting — extracting key terms, populating fields, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.

Template-Based Creation

  • Pre-built templates for employment contracts, NDAs, service agreements, leases, and supplier contracts
  • Dynamic field insertion — automatically pull party details from your onboarded clients and suppliers
  • Clause library with approved legal language for quick insertion
  • Version control tracks every change from draft to final signed version

AI-Powered Extraction

  • Upload existing contracts and let AI extract parties, dates, values, renewal terms, and key obligations
  • Automatic identification of critical clauses: termination, liability caps, indemnities, and warranties
  • Extracted data automatically populates your contract database for reporting and tracking
  • Bulk import support — migrate your entire contract portfolio with AI assistance
Feature 03

Contract Negotiation

No more email chains, lost versions, or wondering who changed what. Our negotiation workflow keeps everything in one place — internal reviews, external counterparty feedback, and every revision tracked with complete transparency.

Collaborative Workflow

  • Share contracts with external parties via secure links — no account required
  • Counterparties can request changes, add comments, and propose alternative language
  • Internal team can review, accept, reject, or counter each requested change
  • Real-time notifications keep all stakeholders informed of progress

Version Control & Audit

  • Every version automatically saved — compare any two versions side by side
  • Complete audit trail: who made each change, when, and why
  • Roll back to any previous version with one click
  • Full negotiation timeline from first draft to signed agreement
Feature 04

Dynamic Multi-Level Approvals

Ensure the right people approve every contract before it's signed. Build sophisticated approval workflows that match your organization's governance — from simple manager sign-off to complex multi-department approval chains.

Flexible Workflow Design

  • Different approval chains for each contract type — employment routes to HR, vendor to procurement
  • Value-based routing: contracts over R500K automatically require CFO approval
  • Sequential or parallel approvals — wait for each level or allow simultaneous review

Tracking & Automation

  • Visual approval status: see exactly where each contract is in the chain
  • Automatic reminders to approvers after 24, 48, and 72 hours
  • Escalation rules: auto-notify managers when approvals are delayed
Feature 05

Electronic Signatures

Close deals faster with legally binding electronic signatures. Our embedded signing experience works seamlessly within your workflow — signers receive a branded experience, sign from any device, and you get instant notification. No DocuSign subscription required.

Signing Experience

  • White-labeled signing pages with your company logo, colors, and domain
  • Mobile-optimized interface — sign from phone, tablet, or desktop
  • Draw signature, type name, or upload an image of your signature
  • Initial and date fields for complex documents requiring multiple sign-offs

Workflow & Compliance

  • Sequential signing: define exact order (employee first, then manager, then HR)
  • Automatic reminders to signers who haven't completed
  • Legally compliant under South African ECT Act with full audit certificate
  • Tamper-evident seal ensures document hasn't been modified after signing
Feature 06

Contract Management & Dashboards

See the health of your entire contract portfolio at a glance. Each workspace gets its own dashboard with relevant metrics — never miss a renewal or let a contract auto-renew without review.

Real-Time Visibility

  • Active contract count and total value by workspace, category, or counterparty
  • Contracts expiring in 30/60/90 days with one-click renewal workflow
  • Pending actions: signatures awaited, approvals needed, negotiations in progress

Smart Notifications

  • Configurable alerts: renewal reminders 90, 60, 30, and 7 days before expiry
  • Weekly digest emails summarizing upcoming expirations and pending actions
  • Role-based notifications: Finance sees value alerts, Legal sees compliance issues
Feature 07

Full Audit Trails

Every action on every contract is permanently recorded. When auditors ask "who approved this?" or "when was this changed?" — you'll have the answer instantly. Immutable logs for compliance, disputes, and due diligence.

What We Track

  • Contract lifecycle events: created, edited, approved, signed, renewed, terminated
  • Document access: who viewed, downloaded, or shared each contract
  • Approval decisions: approved, rejected, or returned with comments

Compliance Ready

  • Immutable logs — records cannot be edited or deleted, even by administrators
  • UTC timestamps with user identification (name, email, IP address)
  • Supports POPIA, King IV governance, and ISO 27001 compliance requirements
Feature 08

Stakeholder Portals

Give your stakeholders secure, self-service access to their contracts. Tenants view lease agreements, employees access employment contracts, partners review agreements — all without emailing your team for copies.

Portal Types

  • Tenant Portal: Lease documents, payment schedules, maintenance requests
  • Employee Portal: Employment contracts, policies, benefits documentation
  • Partner Portal: Partnership agreements, revenue shares, joint venture docs
  • Shareholder Portal: Share certificates, resolutions, cap table access

Self-Service Features

  • Stakeholders log in with email link — no password to remember
  • View contract details, key dates, and renewal information
  • Download signed documents and supporting attachments
  • Request contract amendments or renewals through the portal
Feature 09

AI-Powered Contract Search

Stop digging through folders. Just ask. Our AI search understands natural language and legal terminology — ask questions like you would ask a colleague, and get precise answers with citations.

How It Works

  • Ask questions in plain English — no special search syntax required
  • AI understands legal terminology: "indemnity," "force majeure," "material breach"
  • Search across all contracts or filter by workspace, counterparty, or date range

Example Questions

  • "What is the notice period for terminating my services contract?"
  • "Which contracts have automatic renewal clauses expiring in 90 days?"
  • "What are the liability caps across all our vendor agreements?"
Feature 11

AI-Powered Contract Review

Upload any contract and let AI review it against your playbook in seconds. Get redlined Word documents with tracked changes and explanatory comments — like having a junior lawyer on demand, available 24/7, at a fraction of the cost.

Intelligent Redlining

  • AI reads your contract clause by clause and flags deviations from your approved playbook
  • Generates tracked-change redlines directly in your Word document — no copy-paste
  • Explanatory comments explain why each change is recommended, citing your playbook rules
  • Risk-severity scoring: critical issues, warnings, and suggestions clearly categorized

Custom Playbooks

  • Define your organization's standard positions on indemnities, liability caps, IP, and more
  • Different playbooks for different contract types — vendor, employment, lease, NDA
  • AI learns your preferred language and negotiation positions over time
  • Export redlined documents as .docx with full tracked changes for counterparty review
Step 12
