Automatic price escalations still compounding
An 8–12% annual escalation clause negotiated under older growth assumptions.
Example exposure: $68k–$124k annualized
The real risk
The risk is not in the contract folder. It is in the deadline attached to it.
Your business changed. The contracts kept running.
A vendor agreement signed two years ago may still be escalating in price, renewing automatically, or locking the company into terms negotiated under a different version of the business.
The person who signed it may have moved on. The obligation did not.
This is not a filing problem. It is financial exposure with a renewal window.
What the scan finds
The issue usually looks small. Until the window closes.
Most renewal exposure hides in one clause no one has reviewed in years.
Notice windows closing before review
A vendor contract requires only 30 days’ notice before auto-renewal for another full year.
Miss the window once and the company buys another year.
Legacy tools still billing under old assumptions
Duplicate licenses, unused seats, and legacy platforms keep renewing because no one owns the commercial review.
Example exposure: $37k–$91k per year
Supplier-favorable terms carried forward
Contracts missing protections now common in the market leave the company with weaker negotiating leverage.
Result: higher exposure and fewer options before renewal.
These are not paperwork issues. They are commercial exposures still active inside agreements the business has already moved past.
What we do
Renewal Ops Desk reviews the contracts already running your business.
We analyze active vendor agreements and identify the financial exposure, renewal deadlines, commercial risks, and negotiation opportunities sitting inside them.
The output is not a platform. Not legal advice. Not another meeting.
It is a precise, self-sufficient report your team can act on immediately.

Methodology
AI-accelerated. Human-validated. Every finding.
AI processes each contract systematically. A human analyst validates every finding before delivery.
Evidence-led review
- If a clause is found, it is cited.
- If a term is missing, it is marked not found.
- If a risk is partial, it is marked partial.
No unsupported assumptions
- No assumed dates.
- No invented terms.
- No legal advice.
- The report only states what the contract supports.
Deliverables
A report built for action, not storage.

Process
A clean async process. No calls required.
Step 1
Choose your plan
Use Setup Only for a one-time portfolio audit. Use Setup + Monthly for continuous renewal protection.
Step 2
Submit your contracts
Complete checkout, then upload your vendor agreements through the onboarding form. No calls. No intake meeting. No back-and-forth unless information is missing.
Step 3
Receive your report
Delivered within 2 business days after complete submission. Prioritized by urgency. Ready to act on.
Setup + Monthly clients receive ongoing monitoring, new contract reviews within plan limits, and Executive Briefs 60 days before each renewal window closes.
Setup Only requires all contracts to be submitted at once. Setup + Monthly allows new contracts to be added throughout the month within plan limits.
Fit
Built for teams with enough vendor activity to create silent exposure.
Good fit if
- You have 10+ active vendor agreements
- No one clearly owns renewal exposure
- Your vendor stack grew faster than your internal review process
- Legal reviews contracts when signed, but no one monitors them commercially afterward
- You want clear action steps, not another software platform
- You prefer async delivery over meetings
Not a fit if
- You need legal advice or contract drafting
- You want someone to negotiate directly with vendors
- You need a CLM implementation
- You are looking for filing, admin support, or document organization
- You want recurring calls
- You are not ready to submit the contracts required for review
Plans
One scan. Or continuous renewal protection.
Choose Setup Only if you need to see what is sitting inside your active agreements right now. Choose Setup + Monthly if you want renewal exposure monitored before each window closes.
Setup Only
One-time Portfolio Audit
For companies that need to know what their active vendor agreements are carrying right now.
Walk away knowing where the exposure sits, which contracts need action first, and what to do before the next deadline closes.
Setup + Monthly
Initial audit + ongoing monitoring
For companies that do not want renewal exposure to become a quarterly surprise.
Know which contracts need action, when the window closes, and what to do before it does.
Confidentiality
Confidential by design. Limited by scope.

Documents are used only to produce the contracted analysis. Client data is deleted within 15 days after cancellation or Setup Only delivery.
Renewal Ops Desk does not provide legal advice, draft contracts, negotiate with vendors, or act as legal counsel.
