Catch every auto-renewal and price hike in your vendor contracts
It shows the last day you can cancel each contract without a penalty, sorted by what's due first.
Published . Steps as of October 2026.
How do I find auto-renewal dates and price increases in my contracts?
Upload your contracts to an AI and ask for one table of renewal dates, notice windows, cancel-by days and price clauses, each quoted from the page. Perplexity fits best when you also want cited public prices for what similar businesses pay. Claude works well when you only need the table and a renegotiation note from the files themselves. Either way, check each date against the contract before you put it on your calendar.

Your prompt

Claude opens with your prompt already typed in. Perplexity can't be filled in from a link, so its button copies your prompt: paste it into the new chat.
The prompt that gets copied
I run [YOUR BUSINESS, e.g. a 6-person design agency]. Attached are my vendor contracts, my lease and the terms for the software we pay for. Explain them in plain words so I can plan ahead. This isn't for legal advice, just to see what's coming. 1. Make a table with one row per contract: vendor, what we pay, renewal date, whether it renews on its own, the notice window, the last day to cancel without a penalty, and any price-increase clause. Quote the page or section for each item. 2. Sort the table by the cancel-by date, soonest first. 3. Flag minimum commitments we may not be using and any two services that seem to overlap. 4. For the three biggest costs, find what similar businesses typically pay, using public prices, and cite your sources. 5. Draft a short, friendly renegotiation note for the contract with the most room to save. If a clause is unclear, say so rather than guess.
Upload your vendor agreements, lease and software terms. Perplexity lists every renewal date, notice window and price-increase clause, checks what similar businesses pay and drafts a renegotiation note.
Step by step
- Collect your vendor contracts, lease and software terms as PDFs in one folder.
- Open Perplexity, attach the files, and paste the prompt with your business type filled in.
- Check each date in the table against the contract page Perplexity points to.
- Put the notice deadlines on your calendar and edit the renegotiation note before you send it.
What you'll get
A cancel-by table sorted by deadline with every price clause quoted, a list of overlaps and unused minimums, cited market prices and one renegotiation note to edit.
File upload limits depend on your Perplexity plan. This explains contracts in plain words; it isn't legal advice.
