Universities run the most decentralized procurement of any sector. Orbit gives IT the visibility to find grant-orphaned tools, duplicate departmental licenses, and compliance gaps — without fighting faculty autonomy.
In tech, buying software is a swipe of a corporate card. By the time it reaches a renewal report, you're paying for three of everything — and logging into none of it.
A research grant funds a SaaS tool for 18 months. The grant closes. The tool auto-renews indefinitely on the department budget.
Every faculty member, every department, every research group buys independently. Central IT has no view.
Every vendor touching student data is a compliance obligation. Most universities can’t name all of them.
Orbit's contract AI extracts key terms, flags renewal and compliance risk, and surfaces savings across departments and grants.
Orbit reads every uploaded contract and pulls out renewal dates, notice periods, pricing tiers, and obligations automatically — no manual data entry.
It flags auto-renewal traps, unusual clauses, and compliance exposure buried in the fine print — so nothing catches you off guard.
It highlights savings and consolidation opportunities across your contracts, giving procurement a clear place to act.
Connect your systems and Orbit maps every tool to its department and grant in the first scan — then the agents keep it accountable.
