Contract risk audit
Know what your vendor contracts commit you to before they renew.
Auto-renewals, notice deadlines and committed spend can sit in contract text your planning process never sees. A contract risk audit is a separately scoped review of a defined set of your vendor agreements, with the source evidence for each finding.
No obligation. You don't need to share any contracts to send a request.

Common blind spots
Where a commitment can sit outside the plan.
These terms tend to live in contract text, not in a budget or a calendar.
- Renewal
Auto-renewal terms
An agreement that renews unless someone gives notice extends the commitment by default.
- Deadline
Missed notice windows
The last day to give notice can fall weeks or months before the term ends, and before anyone looks at the contract.
- Vendor
Fragmented vendor commitments
Order forms, amendments and addenda for one vendor are signed at different times and kept in different places.
- Termination
Unclear termination terms
Rights to terminate, their conditions and the notice they need aren't always stated in one clause.
- Concentration
Spending concentration
A few agreements can carry much of what you've committed, which is hard to see one contract at a time.
- Reconciliation
Exposure that's hard to reconcile
Committed minimums, estimated amounts and contracts in several currencies don't add up to one figure without care.
Not every agreement contains these, and a review reports only what your agreements actually say.
What a review brings into focus
Each commitment, tied to the clause it comes from.
A review looks at what each agreement commits you to and shows the words behind each finding. In LedgerGuard, every term stays tied to its source and stays marked until your team confirms it.
- Committed spend, in each contract's own currency
- Term ends, renewal dates and the last day to give notice
- Obligations such as auto-renewal and termination terms
- Exposure across agreements in your base currency, with anything that can't be converted shown separately
- Terms that need verification, flagged instead of guessed
- The decision each deadline puts in front of your team
Unless either party provides written notice of non-renewal at least sixty (60) days prior to the end of the then-current term1, this Order Form shall automatically renew.

Exposure by vendor
USD equivalent · per year2 agreements account for 79% of the counted commitment. Atlassian (GBP 42,000) and Slack (CAD 38,000) are converted; Figma is estimated from a seat table (outlined). Workday is left out.
Needs verification
4 items · 3 contracts- HubSpot: notice period to verify. The sample reads 45 days but says to check it against the order schedule.
- Workday: amount unavailable. The fees sit in a fee schedule that isn't part of the sample, so no amount was found. It's left out of the total, not counted as zero.
- Figma: auto-renewal unknown. The agreement says renewal may need a new order form, so it isn't clear whether notice is needed at all.
- Figma: amount estimated. Worked out from a seat table, not stated as a fee.
Unverified terms stay marked. They can still change calculated deadlines, so they're checked before anyone relies on them.

FAQ
Before you send a request.
A contract risk audit is a separately scoped review of a defined set of vendor agreements, covering notice deadlines, renewal terms, committed spend and source evidence. Submitting a request does not start an automated review.
No. Enterprise conversations can start from renewal calendars, vendor lists, or a small sample. In a live workspace, renewal timing and financial exposure still depend on extraction completing and fields being verified before you rely on them.
No. It surfaces renewal timing and spend at risk so you can decide what needs legal or commercial review.
It is for teams seeking a focused review of vendor agreements, upcoming notice windows and committed spend. It is not a replacement for a full contract lifecycle management system or procurement automation.
Finance, procurement, and operations teams that manage vendor contracts and need renewal cost exposure before commitment.
