Executive Summary

Service-providing businesses (about 1.5 million globally) that rely on annual maintenance contracts routinely miss renewals, underbill, or let agreements lapse because key terms are scattered across PDFs, email threads, ERPs and technicians' notes; that fragmentation directly erodes recurring revenue. The pain is particularly acute for mid-market MSPs, equipment OEM service teams and field-service franchises where an $8K average contract ACV means each missed renewal materially impacts cash flow. You could build an automated contract-tracking and renewal-alert platform that uses AI OCR/NLP to extract renewal dates, pricing, auto-renew clauses and SLAs from documents and correspondence, normalize them into an asset- and customer-linked contract graph, and push multi-channel alerts and playbooks tied to billing and field schedules. Targeting the $12.0B potential (1.5M businesses × $8K ACV) with an API-first approach to sync with ERPs/PSAs and two-way billing updates enables clear monetization via tiered ACV pricing and upsell into field-service add-ons. Market timing favors this product—Market Score 94/100 and Revenue Potential 90/100—because companies are prioritizing retention to stabilize cash flow and modern AI reduces manual contract parsing from hours to minutes, making scale economically feasible. To stand out you’ll need a high-accuracy extraction pipeline (aim for 90%+ clause extraction on common templates), deep pre-built connectors to leading ERPs/PSAs, and operational features like asset-linked renewals and technician-facing alerts so the product drives measurable operational change rather than just admin visibility. Be honest about challenges: sensitive contract data demands enterprise-grade security and compliance, integrations can be complex for legacy stacks, and competition is medium with incumbent CLM and PSA vendors—early success will depend on demonstrating ROI (reduced churn, faster renewals, AR uplift) within the first 6–12 months to overcome adoption friction.
