Auto-renew clauses are designed to be forgotten. The notice window passes, and you are locked in for another year at last year's rate.

Flo reads the contract repository for auto-renew terms and notice windows, then surfaces each one well before the deadline. It flags the contract and the date so the owner can act.

Flo surfaces the window. Procurement decides. No contract renews by default. The team chooses every renewal on purpose.
