Our storySOC 2 Type IIU.S. hostedAI optional

Built by a builder who outgrew spreadsheets.

Contracts Connected was co-founded by Lars Herman, who ran a general contracting firm, and Zach Koerber, who built marketing and software companies before it. It’s the system Lars needed and couldn’t find.

Loose sheets of paper tumble through a glowing glass panel and land as three neat stacks, each with a green dot.
The record

Our co-founder ran a large federal general contracting firm for 15 years, about 100,000 documents a year.

01 The paperwork

The paperwork ran on spreadsheets, email and duct tape.

Every subcontract, W-9 and certificate of insurance had to be collected, tracked, stored and filed, job after job.

It worked, barely.

02 The gap

Two systems ran the business. Nothing ran the paperwork between them.

Project management ran the job. Accounting ran the money. The contracts and documents in between had no system of their own.

When Lars sold his company, he didn’t want to run another one without a proper system, and he couldn’t find one. So he started Contracts Connected. Zach joined to make it real.

03 The system

So they built the third system.

Each contract fills in from your own templates, your people approve it, and it goes out as one package. The vendor marks it up and signs in the same document, with no separate signing app.

Vendors upload everything on one link, and the portal reminds them on Monday and Wednesday mornings until everything is in.

The tracker shows who can mobilize, who’s compliant on site and who’s cleared to be paid.

The AI

Built AI-first. Then made optional.

One setting for the whole account. The features stay the same. The level only sets how much the AI does.

Do it yourself · No AI

Your team runs it.

Contracts, approvals, signatures, reminders, the tracker and the record all work without the AI. No AI model touches your documents.

Done with you · The AI reads

The AI reads before you approve.

It reads the documents you switch it on for, tells you whether to approve or reject and why, drafts the rejection message, and explains each change a vendor makes in a redline.

Done for you · The AI agent

Your AI agent runs the loop.

From its own email address and phone number it drafts contracts from the award email, sends them once your approvals are in, chases what vendors owe and tells your PM who’s cleared. Human in the loop or Auto mode.

"We are able to issue subcontract agreements in a fraction of the time it took previously. Having all our contract templates in the system and all our contract documents in one consolidated place really keeps things smooth and efficient."
