Review the clauses that matter to your campus, supported by AI.
No FERPA school-official language, breach notice with no outer limit, and a license to train AI models on student essays. Flagged for your team before signature.
Vendor shall not use Institutional Data, including de-identified data derived from it, to train or improve any AI model without Institution's prior written consent.
A chatbot can help with one step in the middle. CampusClause carries a vendor contract through its whole life, from a department's first request to the vendor's signed certificate that your data is gone, with a record of who decided what along the way.
A department submits what it wants to buy. Its answers set the route: student data triggers a privacy review, and larger purchases trigger three quotes.
Send the vendor one link to upload the DPA, HECVAT, VPAT, SOC 2 report, and insurance certificate. Missing items are flagged.
When quotes are required, see them side by side with price and vendor risk, plus an export for auditors.
The AI checks the contract against your rules. Your team decides which flags to raise, and each decision is logged.
Track each issue as accepted, rejected, or countered, and see whether the vendor's next draft includes the fixes.
Route to IT, the CFO, counsel, or the president based on cost, risk, and data. Then store the signed copy.
Renewal radar, obligation reminders, and a re-review flag when a vendor changes its terms or adds AI features.
Track data return and deletion and collect the vendor's signed certificate. FERPA cares about this step, and few teams track it.
Just need a second opinion? Upload a contract and review it on its own. If you decide to buy, start the workflow from there and keep the review.
Rules adapt to your institution: public or private, Title IV, dual enrollment, health services, research, and grant-funded purchases. Add your own board policies and they're included in your reviews.
*Curated rules for TX, KS, IN, CA, NY, FL and IL. Other states are reviewed by the AI and flagged for counsel to confirm.
How the vendor may use, share, and return student records.
Safeguards and incident notice for financial aid data.
Accessibility commitments, VPATs, and fix timelines.
Whether your data can be used to train AI.
Public-entity limits, breach deadlines, and required terms.
Liability, indemnity, renewals, and exit rights.
A contract says what the vendor will do. Their SOC report, insurance certificate, and HECVAT show what they actually do. CampusClause reads both and shows you where they disagree.
SOC reports, insurance certificates, HECVATs, and DPAs. AI reads them and notes the audit opinion, exceptions, coverage limits, and weak answers.
Each topic is marked as a conflict, a gap, a risk the contract leaves out, or backed up, with the contract language and the evidence side by side.
Every point up or down is explained. Expiration dates on the documents feed your renewal alerts.
“Vendor encrypts all Customer Data at rest using industry-standard methods.”
Answered “No.” Note: encryption at rest planned for 2027.
Next step: Ask the vendor to correct the HECVAT or commit to a remediation date in the contract.
Contract requires $5M. Certificate shows $1M.
SOC 2 incident response controls tested with no exceptions.
Sample data. AI-assisted review, not legal advice.
Notice deadlines, not just end dates, with email reminders before auto-renewals lock you in.
Turn a review into a Word memo for general counsel, procurement, or the president's cabinet.

CampusClause comes from inside higher education IT, not from a legal-tech company guessing at what colleges need.
Key Richard is a higher education CIO with more than 14 years in IT, currently leading technology for two private colleges through a shared-services model. After years of reviewing vendor agreements with FERPA gaps, auto-renewals, and one-sided terms by hand, Richard built CampusClause to give campus teams a faster first look.
