Use extracted insight fields in dashboards, workflows, and review queues.

## Need an API for contract management and AI analysis inside your stack?

Use the Contract Management API to turn inbound contracts into structured records, risk signals, obligations, and lifecycle automations.

### Automate contract ingestion from the tools you already use

Use the API or Zapier integration to ingest signed contracts from CRMs, e-signature tools, portals, Google Drive, and spreadsheet workflows.

POST /contracts/ingest

```
{
  "externalSystem": "zapier",
  "contract": { "title": "Executed MSA" },
  "files": [{ "r2Key": "integrations/org_123/msa.pdf" }]
}
```

### Extract contract metadata with AI

Use AI contract metadata extraction to turn PDFs and Word files into structured fields like parties, dates, values, renewal terms, notice periods, and custom metadata without manual data entry.

GET /contracts/{id}

```
{
  "contract": {
    "title": "Master Services Agreement",
    "financialTotalValue": "48000",
    "noticeDate": "2026-11-01",
    "parties": [{ "name": "Vendor Inc" }]
  }
}
```

### Run AI contract analysis for risks and obligations

Retrieve AI contract analysis for stored contracts so your workflows can surface risky clauses, liability exposure, gaps, and follow-up obligations before they are missed.

GET /contracts/{id}/analysis

```
{
  "risks": [{
    "severity": "medium",
    "issue": "No mutual termination for convenience"
  }],
  "obligations": [{
    "action": "Pay invoices within 15 days",
    "dueDate": "2026-03-05"
  }]
}
```

## Integrate with the tools you already use

Your contracts come from a dozen places. Contracko picks them up and exposes every one through a single REST API.

[Salesforce Auto-ingest contracts from closed-won Opportunities and AI-extract renewal dates, value, and key terms.](https://contracko.com/integrations/salesforce)

[Dropbox Sign Capture signed documents the moment signature requests complete and AI-extract renewal dates and key terms.](https://contracko.com/integrations/dropbox-sign)

[SharePoint Monitor any SharePoint library and ingest new contracts automatically with AI extraction and renewal tracking.](https://contracko.com/integrations/sharepoint)

## Choose the right API for each contract workflow

Use the Contract Management API when contracts should live in Contracko and be managed through the CLM product. Use the Parsing API when you need high-volume PDF or Word processing into structured data.

## Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about this feature.

- **Q:** Can I use Contracko as an API for contract management?
  **A:** Yes. The Contract Management API lets you ingest contract records, sync lifecycle fields, retrieve metadata and analysis, and trigger workflows from your own systems.

- **Q:** Does the API support AI contract analysis?
  **A:** Yes. You can retrieve AI contract analysis for stored contracts, including risks, obligations, warranties, gaps, and deviations, and use those fields in review queues or automations.

- **Q:** Can I use it for contract metadata extraction?
  **A:** Yes. After contracts are ingested and analyzed, the API exposes structured metadata such as parties, dates, values, renewal terms, notice periods, and custom fields.

- **Q:** How is the Contract Management API different from the Parsing API?
  **A:** The Contract Management API is for contracts stored in Contracko and lifecycle automation. The Parsing API is for custom parser flows and batch extraction workflows where you want structured JSON output outside the CLM product.

- **Q:** What is the best practice for using the Contract Management API?
  **A:** Use the API to batch import contracts into Contracko or to keep external systems in sync after contracts are stored, such as spreadsheets, dashboards, Google Drive folders, or finance workflows. AI agents such as Claude, OpenAI Codex, and ChatGPT can also use the API to organize contracts, update records, and trigger lifecycle automations in Contracko.

- **Q:** Can Contracko help with a custom API integration?
  **A:** Yes. If you want to connect Contracko to an internal system, data warehouse, CRM, procurement tool, or AI agent workflow, book a demo and we’ll help you map the integration. We can walk through authentication, contract ingestion, metadata sync, AI analysis, and whether Zapier, the Contract Management API, or the Parsing API is the right fit.
