Tender & Contract Review Agent

Hand the first read of every tender pack to an agent that works inside your document stores. It pulls out obligations, penalties and compliance conditions, checks them against your approved positions, and returns a cited register your team can sign off.

Ideal forProcurement teams

The difference

Three days of reading, down to one sitting

The agent does the first pass on every page, so your reviewers spend their time on judgement instead of searching.

80%

Indicative figures for a 200-page pack. We measure your own baseline in the first fortnight so the numbers you see are yours.

Bid on the tenders worth winning

Penalties, liability and guarantees are on one page by the end of day one, so you can decide to bid or walk away before the team invests a week.

Nothing signed that you did not see

Every obligation and condition across the RFP, addenda and draft contract is in the register, including the ones buried in annexures.

Your playbook applied every time

Each clause is measured against the positions your business has already approved, whoever is running the review.

Capabilities

Everything a first read should catch

Built around the clauses that decide whether a bid is worth winning - and the ones that quietly make it unprofitable.

Obligation extraction

Every deliverable, deadline and "shall" across the pack, lifted into a single register with owner, trigger and due date.

Penalty and liability mapping

Late-completion penalties, liability caps, indemnities, guarantees and retention - quantified wherever the pack allows it.

Local compliance checks

Surfaces B-BBEE, subcontracting, CIDB grading and POPIA conditions, and notes where a required clause is simply absent.

Measured against your playbook

Compares each position with the terms your business has already approved, and explains every departure in plain language.

Cross-document consistency

Reads the RFP, addenda, draft contract and SLA together, catching the conflicts that appear when documents change hands.

Cited back to the page

Each finding links to its clause and page in the source, so reviewers verify in seconds instead of searching for an hour.

How it works

Reads any tender pack

And turns two hundred pages into the twenty lines that decide the bid.

Deployment

Runs inside the tools your team already uses

The same agent and the same cited output, delivered three ways: through the AI assistant you have rolled out, on a model you host yourself, or inside your own software.

Model Context Protocol

In the frontier assistant you already pay for

We publish the agent as an MCP server. Add it as a connector and your team calls it from the chat they use every day, with no new tool to learn.

On a model you host yourself

Run the agent on open-weight models in your data centre or private cloud. Tender packs never leave your network, which keeps POPIA and data residency straightforward.

Inside your own software

Start a review the moment a tender lands in SharePoint, and push the finished register into your ERP, CLM or bid system. We build the integration with your team.

Governance

Governed the same way, every route

Whichever way your team reaches the agent, identity, permissions and audit stay with your existing controls.

  • Single sign-on through Entra ID, Okta or Google Workspace
  • Reads only the documents each user is already allowed to open
  • Every tool call written to an audit log you can export
How your data is handled

DATA SECURITY & PRIVACY

Your tenders stay yours.

Bid pricing and commercial positions are the most sensitive documents you hold. The agent runs inside your tenancy, reads only what a review needs, and never trains on your packs.

Built for confidential bids.
