What is contract obligation management?

It means finding every commitment in your contracts, such as payments, SLA reports, deliveries, compliance filings and renewal notices, and tracking each one to its due date with a named owner. Aviara Contracts does this with COVA and the Obligations Agent, and a person confirms every obligation before it goes live.

Can Aviara Contracts track payment and invoice obligations?

Yes. Payment schedules, invoice submission windows and late payment terms are found like any other obligation. Because Aviara Contracts runs on the same platform as Aviara Invoices, those terms can also be checked when the invoice arrives.

How are obligations found in a contract?

The Obligations Agent reads the contract when it is uploaded, emailed in or synced, finds the clauses that create a commitment or a deadline, and links each obligation to its clause with a type and a confidence score. Your team accepts, edits or rejects each one.

Which systems does it work with?

Contracts come in from Google Drive, SharePoint, Dropbox, Box, Amazon S3 and email inboxes. Aviara Contracts also connects to Salesforce, HubSpot, QuickBooks, Zoho Books, Zapier, Make and a REST API.

How are recurring obligations handled?

A commitment that repeats, such as a yearly fee or a quarterly report, is tracked as a series of dated occurrences. Each one has its own status, so a payment made last year does not hide one that is overdue this year.

eStamp applied automatically after final internal approval. Stamp duty is calculated per state jurisdiction and the certificate is attached to the document.

The problem

"We finish negotiating a contract, then it sits for two weeks because nobody can get four people to sign a printed PDF at the same time."

HL

Head of Legal, mid-market services firm

"eStamping in India is a different process for every state. Our team spends more time figuring out stamp duty than actually reviewing the contract."

CS

Company Secretary, Indian manufacturing enterprise

"Once a contract is signed, it disappears into someone's inbox or a shared drive. We lose track of where the final executed copy actually is."

How it works

From final draft to executed contract in six steps.

Once redlining is complete, the contract moves through internal approval, signature collection and eStamping automatically, and the executed copy is stored the moment the last signature lands.

Contract finalised

Redlining complete, terms agreed. Contract is marked ready for execution inside Aviara Connect.

Approval routing

The contract routes through your configured internal approval chain: legal, finance and leadership as required.

Sent for signature

All signers, internal and external, receive a secure signing link in the sequence you define.

Multi-party signing

Each party signs from any device. Reminders are sent automatically to signers who haven't completed their step.

eStamping applied

Stamp duty is calculated per jurisdiction and applied automatically, with no manual filing with a stamping authority.

Stored and indexed

The executed contract is filed, indexed for AI search, and obligations tracking begins immediately.

eStamping

Legally valid eStamping.

Stamp duty rules vary by jurisdiction and contract type. Aviara Connect calculates and applies eStamping automatically, so your team doesn’t need to become stamp duty experts.

Automated & Compliant

Stamp duty, calculated and applied automatically

Aviara Connect calculates the applicable stamp duty based on the contract’s jurisdiction, value and type, then applies a legally valid eStamp with a verifiable certificate. It all happens inside the signing workflow, with no separate portal or manual filing.

Compliant with US ESIGN Act and UETA

For US contracts, Aviara Connect’s eSignature workflow is built to meet the requirements of the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (ESIGN Act) and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA), the federal and state frameworks that make electronic signatures legally enforceable in the United States. Every signature captures clear intent to sign, documented consent to transact electronically, a verifiable link between the signer and the record, and accessible, reproducible retention of the signed document. These are the four core requirements under both laws. For contracts in India, the same workflow applies legally valid eStamping alongside the signature process.

Maharashtra, India
