> Dropbox handles the storage. Contracko handles everything after.

Dropbox is the file sync layer many cross-company workflows rely on. Vendors send signed contracts as Dropbox shared links. External counsel drops finalised agreements into a shared folder. The PDF arrives, synced, backed up. But Dropbox's job stops at sync. The contract metadata (parties, renewal date, term, value) stays locked inside the PDF.

Contracko watches the folders your team already uses. We ingest each contract, extract the structured data automatically, and give ops, legal, and finance the visibility Dropbox alone cannot provide.

## How Dropbox + Contracko works

### Trigger: folder watch

Point Zapier at any Dropbox folder.

When a new file appears, Zapier fires the trigger within seconds and passes the file to the next step.

### Ingest into Contracko

The file (PDF or DOCX) is sent to Contracko and lands in your repository.

Dropbox context travels with it as metadata: folder path, file owner, and upload timestamp.

### AI reads the contract and indexes it

Contracko's AI extracts renewal date, term, parties, value, and key clauses.

The structured record sits in Contracko, ready for renewal alerts, portfolio search, and audit reporting.

The originating Dropbox folder path stays linked so you can jump back to the source file from any contract record.

## Why teams using Dropbox choose Contracko

### [Catch the auto-renewal before it costs you](https://contracko.com/features/expiration-reminder)
Dropbox stores the contract. Contracko reads it. Our AI pulls the renewal date and notice period from the PDF and pings the right people (sales, legal, finance, ops) weeks before auto-renewal hits. The first save typically pays for the year.

### [Stay on top of every contract with Clara, your AI assistant](https://contracko.com/features/clara-legal-ai-assistant)
Clara is Contracko's AI contract assistant. She's read every contract you've signed. Ask her "which contracts auto-renew next quarter?" and she answers in seconds, with the exact clause she pulled from.

### [No more manual data entry — AI extracts every term](https://contracko.com/features/contract-data-extraction)
Every PDF that lands in Dropbox gets read automatically. Contracko's AI extracts parties, value, term, renewal date, liability cap, and governing law into structured fields. The spreadsheet your team maintains by hand becomes redundant from day one.

### [Find any contract in seconds with smart search](https://contracko.com/features/contract-repository)
Dropbox search finds file names. Contracko searches inside contracts. Search by counterparty, clause language, value, jurisdiction, or date. "Find all NDAs with mutual confidentiality" returns real answers, not file names.

## Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about the Dropbox to Contracko integration.

- **Q:** Does Contracko integrate with Dropbox?
  **A:** Yes. You point a Zap at any Dropbox folder, and every new file that lands there is automatically ingested into Contracko for AI extraction and lifecycle tracking. The integration is one-way today: Dropbox to Contracko. Writing structured data back into Dropbox after extraction is on the roadmap, not yet shipped.

- **Q:** Do I need a developer to set this up?
  **A:** No. The Zapier-based setup takes around five minutes and uses Dropbox's standard file triggers. If you want a deeper, code-level integration (e.g. batch backfills), use Contracko's Contract Management API.

- **Q:** Where does extracted data end up: back in storage, or only in Contracko?
  **A:** Today, the structured record lives in Contracko: searchable, auditable, and linked to renewal reminders. The originating Dropbox folder path is preserved as metadata so you can jump from any contract record back to the source file. Writing a structured summary back into Dropbox after extraction is on the roadmap (it needs a Contracko Zapier trigger that fires when extraction completes).

- **Q:** How is contract data secured during transit?
  **A:** All payloads between Dropbox, Zapier, and Contracko are encrypted in transit (TLS 1.2+). Contracko applies enterprise-grade encryption at rest and supports SSO, audit logging, and granular role-based access on the receiving side. See our security page for more.

- **Q:** Can Contracko backfill contracts already in a Dropbox folder?
  **A:** Zapier triggers only fire on new events. Files already in a folder at setup time are not processed automatically. For a one-time backfill, use Contracko's batch upload to import historical contracts in bulk, or export your Dropbox folder contents and import them. Renewal dates and key terms are extracted retroactively just like any new ingestion.
