What it does

It watches your Airtable contract tracker and, the moment a record's renewal-window flag flips to true, builds a renegotiation brief: current terms, year-over-year spend, usage notes, comparable market rates, and three concrete asks. The brief is written back to the record and the owner is pinged.

When to use it

Use it when your source of truth is an Airtable base and you want a ready-to-use negotiation packet the instant a contract becomes renegotiable, instead of scrambling the week before renewal.

How it works

  1. 1An Airtable record-updated event triggers when the renewal-window field becomes true.
  2. 2A logic step confirms the contract is active and not already in a brief-drafted state.
  3. 3It pulls the linked spend and usage rows from related Airtable tables.
  4. 4OpenAI drafts the renegotiation brief from the contract terms and spend trend.
  5. 5The brief is saved back onto the Airtable record.
  6. 6The deal owner gets an Outlook email with the brief and a due date.
