Strengths

- Contract management secondary feature
- Essentials at $1,245/mo may be too expensive for SMBs
Enterprise (Compliance-focused)
Why choose Contracko over Gatekeeper?
Gatekeeper is a unified platform for contract, vendor risk, and spend management with a strong compliance focus designed for enterprise finance, procurement, and legal teams. Starting at $1,245/month (a significant increase from earlier $399/mo pricing), it targets larger organizations with complex vendor relationships. While offering unlimited users and LuminIQ AI-powered agents, the platform's vendor management focus means contract lifecycle features are secondary to compliance and supplier tracking. Users report that the contract management capabilities are less robust than dedicated CLM platforms. Small businesses focused purely on contract management find Gatekeeper's vendor-centric approach and $1,245/month entry price prohibitively expensive compared to contract-specialized tools.
