Turn your contracts into structured, searchable data.
Your organization has thousands of contracts buried in PDFs and filing systems. Contraknosis reads any contract and automatically extracts the parties, defined terms, and signatures — turning them into a searchable knowledge base you can query in plain language. No lawyer reading required.
Finding out who signed what, what the key terms mean, and what obligations exist is manual review today — slow, expensive, and error-prone. Contraknosis reads any contract and automatically extracts the parties and their roles, the defined terms that make up its vocabulary, and who signed and on whose behalf — turning dense legal paperwork into structured, searchable data your whole team can use.
Ask a question. Get an instant answer.
Contraknosis turns your contracts into a searchable knowledge base. Ask in plain language — like “what does Pledgor mean here?” or “show me every contract where Acme is a party” — and get an answer in seconds, linked to the exact clause.
“Pledgor” means each Grantor that has pledged Collateral to the Lender under Section 4 of this Agreement.
Three steps for every contract you upload.
Read
Point Contraknosis at any contract — PDF, scan, or Word doc. It reads the whole thing end to end, not just keywords.
Extract
Its AI pulls out the parties and their roles, every defined term, who signed and on whose behalf, and the key obligations.
Search
Everything becomes a searchable knowledge base. Ask plain-language questions across your whole portfolio and get instant answers, each linked to its source.
From raw PDFs to structured, queryable data.
Parties & roles
Identifies every party in a contract and the role each one plays — lender, grantor, guarantor, counterparty.
Defined-term glossary
Pulls out the contract’s own vocabulary — every defined term and exactly what it means in that agreement.
Signatures & authority
Captures who actually signed, and on whose behalf — the detail manual review most often misses.
Searchable knowledge base
Query your entire contract portfolio in plain language and get instant answers, each linked to its source clause.
What makes Contraknosis different.
Data Sovereignty
Your contracts never leave your network. Every document, extraction, and query is processed entirely on your own infrastructure — nothing is sent to external servers, and nothing is ever used to train outside models.
Air-Gap Guarantee
Contraknosis runs locally on your own network — no contract text is ever sent to an external server. It uses open-source AI models, not generic chatbot APIs, so your data stays private and there are no per-query fees. Non-negotiable for defense, banking, and healthcare.
Source-Level Traceability
Every extracted fact — a party, a defined term, a signature — links straight back to the exact sentence in the contract. Your team can verify the AI’s work in seconds.
Purpose-Built for Legal
Built on open-source models fine-tuned specifically for contract language — not a general-purpose chatbot. It knows the difference between a Credit Agreement Amendment and a Lease, and it knows when it isn’t sure.
A driven team that builds products people actually use.
We’re product, strategy, technology, and data people who’ve spent our careers building things that work at scale. We saw how much time gets lost to contracts nobody can search, and we’re building the tool we’d want to use.
Arald Jean-Charles
An AI integration specialist who has spent decades transforming complex data ecosystems across IT services, telecom, and financial services — bringing a builder's instinct to help teams see the shape of a solution before it exists. Outside of work, he writes about emerging tech, plays guitar, and gets lost in sci-fi worlds.
Venante Jean-Noël
Founding Product Manager, bringing 20+ years of building products that make complex systems clear and actionable — from a 0-to-1 AdTech stack that grew inventory 25%, to unifying 560 mobile apps into one ecosystem, to ScOAR, a live AI-powered app on iOS and Android. Outside of product work, she's deeply rooted in her community, and when she's not building or serving, she's writing or traveling.
Biani Noubissi
Leads strategy, customer discovery, and investor relations. Previously shaped acquisition and underwriting strategy for a $100M+ credit card channel at Ally Financial, after supporting strategy and M&A delivery for enterprise clients at Accenture. Outside of work, he's committed to philanthropy and mentorship in New York City — and can often be found at the gym or traveling exotic places.
