Vendor Contract Renewal Reminders

Every Monday, WebRun reads your vendor contract register in Google Sheets, identifies contracts expiring in the next 30, 60, or 90 days, drafts a renewal-action briefing for each, and posts the priority list to Slack so nothing slips through on auto-renew.

In short

How can I automatically get reminded before vendor contracts expire?

Every Monday, WebRun reads your vendor contract register in Google Sheets, identifies contracts expiring in the next 30, 60, or 90 days, drafts a renewal-action briefing for each, and posts a prioritised list to Slack - so you negotiate from a position of strength rather than getting auto-renewed by default.

  • No vendor contract silently auto-renews without your awareness
  • Renewal briefings prepared and prioritised weeks in advance
  • Negotiation leverage preserved by acting before the deadline

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it contact vendors about renewal automatically?

No - vendor communications are always drafted and left for you to review and send. Auto-renewing or terminating a contract is never done without your explicit decision.

What if a contract is stored as a PDF attachment rather than in the sheet?

The register is your source of truth - keep expiry dates in the sheet and WebRun handles the reminders. You update the sheet when you file a new contract.

Can I track contracts from multiple vendors in one register?

Yes - a single Google Sheet with one row per contract works perfectly. Add as many vendors, contract types, and notice periods as you need.

Put this on autopilot.
