Common Paper

Contract system built for startups.

Visit Common Paper

Common Paper is a contract management platform built for startups, designed to solve the problem of slow and fragmented contract workflows. It helps teams negotiate, sign, bill, upsell, and handle renewals in a single system, moving beyond the manual back-and-forth that often delays deals.

The platform includes an AI contract review tool called Gerri, which redlines contracts against a user-defined playbook and escalates out-of-playbook items to the appropriate team member. It offers a library of open-source standard agreements, such as a Cloud Service Agreement and Mutual NDA, maintained by a committee of lawyers. Key capabilities include one-click contract sending from a CRM, structured data export to downstream systems like Stripe and Zendesk, and integrations with Salesforce, HubSpot, Slack, and Vanta. The platform is accessible via an API and MCP.

Common Paper is aimed at startups and growing teams that need to close deals faster while controlling risk. It offers a free plan with limited agreements per month, and paid editions that are priced per user per month, with higher tiers adding features like custom branding, upsell workflows, and CRM integrations. An enterprise plan with custom capacity and SSO is also available.
