What it does

The moment a signed contract is dropped into Dropbox, it reads the document, extracts the vendor, contract value, term length, auto-renew date, and notice period, and creates a complete record in your Airtable renewal tracker. No manual data entry, and the renewal watcher starts monitoring it immediately.

When to use it

Use it as the front door to your renewal process so newly signed contracts are tracked automatically. It prevents the common gap where a contract is signed but never logged, then silently auto-renews months later.

How it works

  1. 1A new file added to the Dropbox contracts folder triggers the run.
  2. 2A logic step confirms the file is a contract PDF and not already tracked.
  3. 3It downloads the file and OpenAI extracts parties, value, term, and renewal dates.
  4. 4It creates the populated record in the Airtable renewal tracker.
  5. 5It posts a confirmation to the procurement channel in Slack.
