The contract is on your desk. The decision is due Friday.

You know how it goes. A vendor sends over the renewal contract, or your landlord delivers a new lease, or a SaaS company emails an updated MSA. There are 20+ pages of legal language. You have a payroll deadline, a customer issue, and three meetings between now and Friday.

Your options aren't great:

Read it yourself. No time. And even if you had time, you'd skim it and miss the things that actually matter.
Send it to a lawyer. $300–$500 an hour, and might be more than the situation calls for on a routine vendor renewal.
Just sign it. Until the rate jumps 12% next year because of a clause buried on page 9. (Ask anyone in operations how often this happens.)
Ask ChatGPT. Maybe — if you've got time to figure out the right prompts, copy-paste the contract, and trust an answer that can't show you where in the document it came from.

Renewal Pilot is built for the gap between "I should read this" and "I have time to read this."

Three steps. Five minutes. One clear answer.

Drop the contract in.

Upload a PDF or Word file, or forward the contract directly from your inbox to your dedicated Renewal Pilot address. PDFs from a phone, scanned documents, vendor portals — anything that's a contract.

Get the breakdown.

The AI extracts every detail that matters — dates, money, term length, auto-renewal language, cancellation windows, notice periods, escalator clauses, payment schedules. Each detail comes with a click-to-source link back to the exact spot in the document, so you can verify what you're reading.

Decide with both eyes open.

You get a plain-English summary, a list of anything worth flagging, and the full extracted detail. Sign confidently. Or push back on the language you don't like before you sign.

The things you'd want a lawyer to flag — flagged automatically.

Auto-renewal language.

Catches the obvious cases ("this agreement automatically renews for one-year terms") and the buried ones ("absent written notice 90 days prior to expiration"). Uses both AI extraction and rule-based pattern matching, so the language gets caught even when one method misses it.

Renewal and cancellation deadlines.

The two dates that matter most. Surfaced before they become emergencies. Cancellation deadlines often hide 60–120 days before the renewal date — you need to know now, not later.

Price escalators and rate changes.

Annual increase clauses, CPI-tied adjustments, scheduled rate bumps. These are the things that turn a "fixed-price" contract into something else by year three.

Notice periods and termination clauses.

How much warning you need to give to cancel, what counts as a valid termination, what penalties apply. The fine print on the way out.

Payment terms and schedules.

Frequency, billing cycles, late fees, early termination fees, minimum commitments. The actual financial commitment hidden inside the headline price.

Total contract value over time.

Annual cost, monthly cost, total cost over the term. The number you'd quote your boss when they ask "what's this going to cost us."

Every answer comes with the receipt.

AI tools that just spit out an answer aren't trustworthy when the stakes are real money. Renewal Pilot solves this with click-to-source verification: every extracted detail links back to the exact spot in the original document.

Click any answer — a renewal date, a payment amount, an auto-renewal flag — and the source language opens up next to it. You see what the AI saw. You verify the answer in two seconds. No guessing, no trusting a black box.

This is how you get to the right questions in five minutes instead of two hours.

Three concrete examples.

Example 1: A 22-page software MSA

A vendor sends a master service agreement with three SOWs. The MSA references a separate terms-of-service URL. Total reading time if done thoroughly: about an hour.

Drop it into Renewal Pilot. In about 70 seconds:

Auto-renewal: Yes, 12-month rolling term
Notice required to cancel: 90 days before renewal date
Annual escalator: 4% per year, compounding
Total cost over 3 years if not cancelled: $187,200
Hidden gotcha flagged: Termination fee equals 50% of remaining contract value

You flag the escalator with your team or your legal counsel and end up negotiating it down to 2.5% before signing. That's a $4,300 savings over three years from one five-minute review.

Example 2: A commercial office lease

A 14-page lease with a renewal addendum. Your office manager wasn't sure whether to flag the rent increase clause to ownership.

Drop it in. The breakdown shows:

Lease term: 36 months, starting 2026-06-01
Base rent: $4,800/month, year 1
Annual rent escalator: 3.5% per year (years 2 and 3)
Auto-renewal: Yes, month-to-month rolling renewal after the 36-month term unless 60-day notice given
Effective monthly rent over the term, including escalator: $4,968 average

Now you know what the actual cost looks like — and that you'll need to make a renewal decision in early 2029 or auto-renew into a month-to-month arrangement at then-prevailing market rates.

Example 3: A SaaS vendor's annual renewal contract

The vendor sends a renewal "with no changes." But they always say that.

Drop it in alongside last year's contract (Renewal Pilot recognizes them as related versions automatically). The version comparison surfaces:

Per-seat price: $42/seat → $46/seat (10% increase)
Minimum seat commitment: 25 → 30
Auto-renewal language: changed from 30-day notice to 60-day notice required to cancel
Termination clause: now requires reason, previously was termination-for-convenience

Three changes you'd have signed for if you hadn't checked. Take any one back to the vendor for negotiation.
