A great way to reduce negotiation time in B2B contracting. Great team, helpful support. TermScout is really leading the way to make contracting easier for B2B organizations like mine.

TermScout Gives Contract Negotiators a Significant Edge and Approvers Excellent Risk Transparency. I really enjoy working with the TS team and honing the software to be a key piece of the workflow for many clients who have high-volume contracts and limited people resources to review each one.

When we look at vendor contracts, we leverage TermScout reviews and rating data to help us quickly understand which vendors are going to be easy to work with and which ones are going to require extensive negotiations.

Step 5

Decide Whether to Approve, Escalate, or Negotiate

Use contract signals and market benchmarks to decide whether an agreement can move forward, needs negotiation, or should be escalated to legal.

Step 5

Certify analyzes procurement agreements at the clause level, focusing on how vendors allocate risk and define governance.

It examines:

-Liability structures (caps, exclusions, uncapped exposure)
-Indemnity provisions
-Termination rights
-Data, security, and operational governance clauses
-Any terms that signal risk allocation, control, or vendor posture

Certify™ uses structured analysis and market benchmarking to generate contract signals for procurement teams.

Specifically:

-Each clause is compared to thousands of live agreements
-Terms are evaluated against market ranges and norms
-Deviations are quantified (e.g., within range, outside range, materially outside)

This allows procurement to answer questions like:

-Is this liability position standard or aggressive?
-Is this vendor an outlier or consistent with peers?
-Where are we outside our own policy thresholds?

Certify completes and strengthens the full procurement intelligence model:

Triage (Intake Intelligence)
Uses contract signals to inform escalation decisions

Helps procurement decide what actually needs review

-Monitor (Change Intelligence)

Provides baseline context so post-approval changes are meaningful
Detects when vendor terms drift away from approved positions

-Certify Profile (Portfolio Intelligence)

Aggregates all agreements into a vendor- and portfolio-level view

Enables:

Side-by-side vendor comparison
Risk concentration analysis
Consistent decision-making across agreements

Certify is not a replacement for CLM, it is a different layer entirely.

Certify turns vendor contracts into structured, benchmarked signals for procurement decision-making.
CLM manages contracts. Certify explains them.
From agreement review to portfolio governance.
