Keepwatch tracks the lifecycle of business contracts so you can manage your renewals and terminations. Keepwatch gives you notices before your contracts expire tied to the actual notice and termination provisions.

Hello Product Hunt, Michael here. I'm a long time corporate attorney: I have spent 20+ years working on contracts, including in a tier 1 law firm's multinational corporate practice. The most common contract problem I saw at small and large businesses wasn't a bad clause. It was a missed date. A lease, a vendor agreement or a software contract renews for another term because the notice deadline was 60 or 90 days before the expiration date, and nobody had it on a calendar. Enterprise customers have solved for this with expensive SaaS contract management software licenses, costly implementations and upkeep. Keepwatch brings the same level of contract lifecycle management sophistication to sole proprietors and small businesses, really anyone with an iPhone or using MacOS: - It tracks the notice deadline, not just the expiration date, and counts calendar or business days the way the contract does. - Scan a paper contract on your iPhone or drag a PDF onto your Mac. It reads the document on the device and suggests the dates, notice period and parties. You confirm each one against the original. - Reminders lead up to the day you need to act, and it drafts an editable notice letter if you decide not to renew or want to exercise an option to extend. Each is in conformance with the notice requirements of the contract, which is essential for notice to be legally effective. - There's no Keepwatch server. Contracts live on your devices and in your own iCloud. The privacy of your documents remains with you. Free for three contracts. Pro is $4.99 a month or $39.99 a year for unlimited, with a one-week free trial on annual. One purchase covers iPhone, iPad and Mac. Want to try it without using a real contract? Sample contracts here: Timely note: if anything you have renews on January 1 with 60 days' notice, your deadline is around November 2. I'd love feedback, especially from anyone who manages a stack of vendor agreements. Thanks for reading.
