LEGAL TEAMS
Your team is buried.
That is when things get missed.
Gatekeeper gives legal teams contracts that start informed by due diligence and stay connected to obligations, risk and spend after signature. So the work that protects the business gets the time it needs.

The Legal Team Challenge
Expected to prevent exposure. Working without the full picture.
Every contract lands on legal. The vendor's due diligence status, their risk score, their compliance position, none of that comes with it.
After signature, obligations go dark. One miss on a redline or an obligation, and the business is exposed. The problem is not your team's judgement. It is the fact that they are making it without context.
How Gatekeeper Helps
Contracts that start informed and stay defensible.
Most CLMs handle the contract and nothing else. Gatekeeper connects it to the vendor's risk, compliance and due diligence before it is drafted, and to obligations, renewals and spend after it is signed. Legal is never working blind to what the rest of the business already knows.
Business teams submit requests through a portal with the information your team actually needs.
Requests route to the right attorney based on contract type, value or entity. The vendor's due diligence status and risk profile are already attached.
Every version, redline and comment on one record. The Contract Clause Review Agent flags deviations against your playbook so your attorneys can focus on the judgment calls.
Approval trails are captured as part of the workflow with built-in eSignature and reconstructed from email. The executed agreement and all its metadata land in the repository automatically.
This is where most CLMs stop. Obligations, notice periods and renewal terms are tracked against the contract and tied to the vendor's risk profile. When something is overdue, it escalates.
Agents extract contract metadata, flag clause deviations, apply redlines, chase missing information and monitor obligations after signature. Your team makes the decisions. Agents do the rest..
AI AGENTS

FAQ
Frequently asked questions from Finance Leaders.
Our ERP already has vendor records. Is this another system?
No. Your ERP handles the transaction. Gatekeeper handles the relationship, the contract and the risk. If you use NetSuite, the integration is native.
Vendors are screened and approved in Gatekeeper first, then pushed as clean records into your vendor master. Spend data flows back so you see what was invoiced against what was agreed, on the same record. The ERP was never built to do that.
We do not have a procurement or legal team. Can finance run this alone?
That is exactly who this is built for. Many of our customers are finance teams that ended up owning vendor contracts because nobody else does.
Gatekeeper does not assume you have a ten-person procurement function behind you. It gives the people already doing the work the platform and the agents to do it properly, without adding headcount.
We have already started building something internally. Why would we stop?
You may not need to stop. The question is whether what you are building will connect contracts to vendor risk and spend on the same record, automate the chasing, and give you a full audit trail without your team maintaining it.
Most internal builds solve one part well and leave the rest as manual work.
If your team is already stretched, maintaining custom integrations and branch code on top of the day job becomes its own problem. Gatekeeper is main-thread, configurable, and live in six weeks. It's worth seeing what you would need to build yourself before committing another quarter to it.
We have hundreds of contracts and most are just PDFs. Where do we start?
Upload them. The Contract Obligation Extraction Agent reads each one and pulls key dates, parties, values and obligations automatically, including scanned documents. You don't need a clean register to begin. The contracts are the starting point. The structure builds from there.
How does the AI handle our contract data?
Your data stays yours. Gatekeeper's AI processes your contracts within the platform. It does not combine your data with other customers' data to train models.
If your team wants to use AI for contract review and extraction, it's there. If they are not ready, every AI feature is optional. You control what is switched on.
How do we fund this if our budget is already set?
That is exactly when to start the conversation. Most customers use the time between now and budget approval to run a discovery call, see the platform and build the internal case with real numbers. When budget opens, you are not starting from scratch.
You already know what the gap is costing, what the implementation looks like and what to put in the proposal. We can also help you build that case with data from your own contract register.
