Document Processing & Contracts

Juro for Nonprofits: AI-Native Contract Collaboration

Your grants manager is waiting three days for legal to review a vendor contract. Your development director is emailing Word documents back and forth with a corporate partner, losing track of which version has the latest changes. Your ED wants to know which contracts are expiring next quarter, but nobody can find the answer without digging through shared drives. Juro is an AI-native contract management platform that lets your entire team draft, negotiate, approve, and sign contracts in a single collaborative workspace—with AI handling the heavy lifting of review and risk identification. With a 15% nonprofit discount, Juro makes enterprise-grade contract management accessible to mission-driven organizations.

What It Does

Every nonprofit manages contracts—vendor agreements, grant funding letters, partnership MOUs, consulting contracts, employment offers, and lease agreements. But most organizations manage these critical documents through a patchwork of email threads, shared drives, and Word documents passed back and forth until nobody knows which version is final. The result is bottlenecks, missed deadlines, and legal risk hiding in plain sight.

Juro replaces that chaos with a browser-native platform where contracts are created, negotiated, and signed in a single workspace. Unlike legacy tools that force you to download documents and work offline, Juro's editor works like Google Docs for contracts—everyone collaborates in real time, every change is tracked, and the AI assistant is always available to draft, review, or summarize any clause. When a foundation sends your organization a new grant agreement, you can import it into Juro, let the AI flag potential risks, negotiate changes with the funder directly in the platform, collect approvals from your board, and get e-signatures—all without leaving the browser.

What sets Juro apart from traditional contract management software is its approach to scaling: all plans include unlimited users, unlimited workflows, and unlimited templates. Instead of charging per seat (which penalizes growing teams), Juro prices based on contract volume. This means your entire organization—from the ED to program managers to the finance team—can access and manage contracts without worrying about per-user costs.

The platform's intelligent repository stores every executed contract with AI-extracted data points, making your entire agreement history searchable and reportable. Need to know which vendor contracts include indemnification clauses? Which grants require quarterly reporting? How many agreements expire in the next 90 days? The AI provides answers in seconds. For nonprofits looking to bring structure and intelligence to their contract processes, Juro offers a modern, collaborative alternative to enterprise CLM platforms. Learn more about how AI can streamline your organization's operations in our guide for nonprofit leaders.

Best For

Organization Size

Small to mid-sized nonprofits (10-200 staff) that need structured contract management but can't justify the $25,000+ annual cost of enterprise CLM platforms. Juro's unlimited-user model and volume-based pricing make it accessible to growing organizations. For nonprofits with very basic needs (fewer than 10 contracts per month), PandaDoc may be a simpler starting point.

Primary Use Cases

Standardizing contract creation with self-serve templates so program staff don't need legal for routine agreements
Real-time contract negotiation with external partners, funders, and vendors in a shared workspace
Tracking grant agreements, vendor contracts, and partnership MOUs with automated renewal reminders
AI-assisted contract review to identify risks and deviations from standard terms
Building automated approval workflows without technical expertise

Best Suited For These Roles

Operations Directors: Streamline vendor management, procurement workflows, and organizational agreements
Grants Managers: Track funding agreements, compliance requirements, and reporting deadlines in one place
Legal Counsel / Compliance Staff: Use AI to accelerate contract review and enforce approved language
Executive Directors: Gain visibility into all organizational commitments and upcoming renewals
Development Directors: Manage corporate partnership agreements, major gift pledges, and sponsorship contracts

Key Features for Nonprofits

AI Contract Drafting

Generate complete contract drafts in seconds based on information you provide. The AI creates first drafts using your organization's approved templates and guardrails—set rules like "we won't agree to liability caps exceeding $1M" and the AI enforces them automatically.

Nonprofit Use: Ask the AI to "draft a consulting agreement for a 6-month program evaluation with a $50,000 budget" and receive a complete, policy-compliant first draft in under a minute.

AI Contract Review & Risk Identification

The AI assistant identifies key legal risks within any document based on your contract playbook. Upload a counterparty's contract and the AI flags deviations from your standard terms, missing clauses, and potential compliance issues—presenting risks clearly for your team to address during negotiations.

Nonprofit Use: When a corporate sponsor sends their standard partnership agreement, the AI instantly flags non-standard liability terms, missing termination clauses, and IP provisions that need your attention.

Browser-Native Collaborative Editor

Negotiate contracts in real time within Juro's browser-based editor—no downloading Word documents or emailing versions back and forth. Both internal teams and external counterparties collaborate in the same workspace with commenting, redlining, and version tracking built in.

Nonprofit Use: Invite a foundation's program officer to collaborate on a grant agreement directly in Juro. Both parties see changes in real time, eliminating the "which version is this?" confusion.

Self-Serve Templates & Q&A Workflows

Create automated templates with built-in Q&A workflows so program staff can generate routine contracts without legal involvement. Staff answer simple questions ("Who is the vendor?" "What's the contract value?") and the system produces a compliant agreement ready for review.

Nonprofit Use: A program coordinator needs an independent contractor agreement for a workshop facilitator. They fill out a 5-question form and Juro generates the complete contract using your pre-approved template.

Intelligent Contract Repository

Every signed contract is stored with AI-extracted structured data, making your entire agreement history searchable. Query your contracts in seconds, create dynamic reports, and set automated reminders for renewal dates, compliance deadlines, and expiring agreements.

Nonprofit Use: Ask "which grants require quarterly financial reporting?" or "show me all vendor contracts expiring in Q2" and get instant, accurate answers across your entire contract portfolio.

6,000+ Integrations

Connect Juro to your existing tools through native integrations with Salesforce, HubSpot, and Slack, plus 6,000+ additional tools via Zapier. Initiate contracts from your CRM, get approval notifications in Slack, and sync contract data with your systems automatically.

Nonprofit Use: When a new corporate partner is added in your CRM, automatically trigger a partnership agreement workflow in Juro—no manual handoff required.

How This Tool Uses AI

What's Actually AI-Powered

AI Draft

Type of AI: Large language model (GPT-4o) with contract-specific training and organizational guardrails

What it does: Generates complete contract drafts based on natural language descriptions and organizational parameters. You set guardrails (maximum liability caps, required clauses, prohibited terms) and the AI produces drafts that comply with your policies automatically

Practical impact: A contract that used to take 30-60 minutes to draft manually can be generated in seconds, with your organization's approved language already built in. Your team shifts from creating contracts from scratch to reviewing and refining AI-generated first drafts

AI Review

Type of AI: GPT-4o with enhanced clause recognition and risk assessment capabilities

What it does: Analyzes contracts against your playbook to identify all key legal risks. Flags deviations from standard terms, missing required clauses, and potentially problematic language. Presents risks clearly so legal staff can focus on negotiation rather than line-by-line reading

Practical impact: Instead of spending hours reading every clause, your reviewer focuses on the specific issues the AI has identified—significantly reducing the time required for contract review

AI Summarize

Type of AI: Natural language processing for contract abstraction and data extraction

What it does: Summarizes entire contracts or individual clauses, with customization options for length, tone, and audience. Also extracts and structures key data points—renewal dates, dollar amounts, party names, obligations—making contracts queryable and reportable

Practical impact: When your ED needs a quick summary of a 20-page partnership agreement before a board meeting, the AI produces a concise overview in seconds. When finance needs to know all contract values across the organization, the extracted data provides the answer instantly

What's NOT AI (But Still Useful)

Template Q&A Workflows: The self-serve contract generation uses rule-based conditional logic, not AI. You define the questions and the system assembles the contract—reliable and predictable
Approval Workflows: Automated routing and approval chains are rule-based automation—you set the rules, the system enforces them consistently
E-Signatures: The signing process uses standard electronic signature technology, not AI
Real-Time Collaboration: The browser-native editor uses standard collaboration technology (similar to Google Docs), not AI-driven features

AI Transparency & Limitations

Human Oversight Required: AI-generated drafts and risk assessments should always be reviewed by someone with legal knowledge. The AI excels at identifying standard issues and generating compliant first drafts, but it can't understand your organization's relationship history with a specific funder or the political context around a particular partnership.

Guardrails Matter: The quality of AI output depends on how well you configure your organizational guardrails and playbooks. Investing time upfront to define your standard terms, acceptable ranges, and required clauses dramatically improves the AI's usefulness.

Privacy Note: Juro is SOC 2 Type 2 certified with 99.9% platform uptime. Your contract data is processed securely and is not used to train models for other organizations. Data remains under your control with full export capabilities.

Real-World Nonprofit Use Case

Imagine a youth development nonprofit with 50 staff members across three program sites. They manage 150+ active contracts: grant agreements with 12 different funders, vendor contracts for program supplies and IT services, consultant agreements for program evaluations, partnership MOUs with schools and community organizations, and independent contractor agreements for workshop facilitators. Their operations director currently manages all of this through a combination of email, shared drives, and a spreadsheet tracking renewal dates.

After implementing Juro, the organization creates self-serve templates for their most common agreement types. When a program coordinator needs a new contractor agreement, they answer five simple questions in Juro's Q&A workflow and the system generates a compliant contract in seconds—no email to legal required. When the grants manager receives a new funding agreement from a foundation, she uploads it to Juro and the AI instantly identifies two clauses that deviate from the organization's standard terms and flags a missing data privacy provision. She addresses the issues in Juro's collaborative editor and shares the annotated contract directly with the funder for negotiation.

The operations director now has real-time visibility into every contract in the organization. A dynamic dashboard shows 8 contracts expiring in the next quarter, 3 grants requiring upcoming progress reports, and 2 vendor agreements that auto-renew in 30 days unless notice is given. Instead of discovering these deadlines in a spreadsheet (or worse, missing them entirely), the team receives automatic reminders and can take action proactively. The result: faster contract turnaround, fewer bottlenecks, and zero missed deadlines—all with the same small team.

Pricing

Juro uses custom pricing tailored to each organization's needs. Unlike many enterprise CLM platforms that charge per user, Juro's pricing model is based on contract volume—and all plans include unlimited users, unlimited workflows, and unlimited templates.

Pricing Factors

Volume-Based

Your quote depends on monthly contract volume (from under 20 to 1,000+), contract types, which AI features you need (AI Draft, AI Review, AI Extract), and integration requirements.

Unlimited Users

All Plans

Every plan includes unlimited users, unlimited workflows, and unlimited templates. Your entire team—from interns to the ED—can access and manage contracts without additional per-seat costs.

Demo-Based Evaluation

Personalized Demo

Request a personalized demo to see the platform with your specific use cases. Juro's team walks through the features most relevant to your organization before providing a custom quote.

Note: Pricing information is subject to change. Contact Juro directly for current pricing by requesting a demo at juro.com/pricing. Quotes are available in USD, GBP, or EUR.

Nonprofit Pricing

15% Nonprofit Discount

Juro offers a 15% discount for registered nonprofit organizations on all plans, making their platform more accessible to mission-driven organizations.

How to access: Contact Juro's sales team and mention your nonprofit status when requesting a quote
Verification: Be prepared to provide your 501(c)(3) determination letter or equivalent nonprofit documentation
Applies to: All paid plans—the discount is applied to your custom quote regardless of contract volume
Additional savings: Ask about annual vs. monthly billing for further discounts, and inquire whether onboarding support is included

Budget Tip: Because Juro charges by contract volume rather than per user, it can be significantly more affordable than per-seat alternatives for organizations with many staff who need contract access. Compare the total cost against per-seat platforms where adding 10-20 users could dramatically increase your annual spend. For organizations comparing contract management options, see our guides to PandaDoc and Docusign IAM.

Honest Assessment: Pros & Cons

Strengths

Unlimited users on all plans: Unlike per-seat platforms, your entire organization can access contracts without escalating costs—a significant advantage for resource-conscious nonprofits
Published nonprofit discount: The 15% nonprofit discount is transparent and straightforward, unlike platforms with opaque custom pricing

Strong AI capabilities: GPT-4o powers drafting, review, and summarization—genuine AI that saves real time, not just marketing buzzwords

Limitations

No published pricing: Despite transparent nonprofit discounts, you still need to go through the sales process to get a quote—making it hard to budget without a conversation first
No self-serve free trial: You can't test the platform independently—evaluation requires scheduling a demo with their sales team
Deeper integrations cost extra: Basic integrations (Slack, Google Drive) are included, but Salesforce and HubSpot native integrations may have additional costs
Reporting could be stronger: Some users report that analytics and reporting features have room for improvement compared to the strongest enterprise CLM platforms
No mobile app: Web-based only—no dedicated mobile application for reviewing or approving contracts on the go

Alternatives to Consider

PandaDoc

Best for small nonprofits needing affordable document automation and e-signatures

Starting at $19/user/month with a free e-signature tier, PandaDoc offers AI-assisted document creation, templates, CRM integrations, and built-in payment collection. Simpler than Juro but perfect for organizations that primarily need proposals, contracts, and e-signatures without full contract lifecycle management.

Docusign IAM

Best for nonprofits wanting AI agreement management with a strong nonprofit discount

Docusign's Intelligent Agreement Management platform includes Navigator (AI repository), Maestro (workflow automation), and the Iris AI engine. Up to 50% nonprofit discount on annual plans makes it a strong value proposition. Best for organizations already using Docusign eSignature that want to expand into full agreement management.

Ironclad

Best for large nonprofits needing enterprise-grade CLM with advanced agentic AI

Ironclad offers agentic AI agents (Jurist) for contract drafting, review, and editing with deep Salesforce integration. It's the Gartner Magic Quadrant Leader in CLM. However, at $25,000-$75,000+/year with no published nonprofit discount, it's best suited for large organizations with 100+ contracts annually and dedicated legal teams.

Why choose Juro instead? If you need genuine CLM capabilities (not just e-signatures) at a more accessible price point than Ironclad, with unlimited users and a published nonprofit discount, Juro hits a sweet spot.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Juro offer a nonprofit discount?

Yes, Juro offers a 15% discount for registered nonprofit organizations on all plans. Contact their sales team and mention your nonprofit status when requesting a quote. Be prepared to provide your 501(c)(3) determination letter or equivalent documentation.

How much does Juro cost?

Juro uses custom pricing based on contract volume, contract types, AI features needed, and integration requirements. All plans include unlimited users, unlimited workflows, and unlimited templates. Contact Juro for a personalized quote—they provide quotes in USD, GBP, or EUR.

Does Juro have a free trial?

Juro offers personalized demos rather than a self-serve free trial. You can request a demo at juro.com to see the platform in action with your own contract scenarios. During the demo, their team walks through features most relevant to your organization before you commit.

What AI model does Juro use?

Juro's AI Assistant runs on GPT-4o, delivering deeper contract understanding with improved clause recognition and enhanced risk assessment. The AI powers three core capabilities: AI Draft (generating contracts from descriptions), AI Review (identifying risks against your playbook), and AI Summarize (creating customizable contract summaries).

Is Juro suitable for small nonprofits?

Juro can work for nonprofits of various sizes because pricing scales with contract volume rather than user count. Small nonprofits processing fewer than 20 contracts per month can potentially get an affordable quote. However, organizations with very basic needs (mostly e-signatures) might be better served by PandaDoc or Docusign's standard e-signature product.

What integrations does Juro support?

Juro integrates with over 6,000 tools including native integrations with Salesforce, HubSpot, and Slack, plus thousands more via Zapier. A Microsoft Word Add-In allows processing third-party contracts, and API access enables custom integrations with your specific tools.

How does Juro compare to Ironclad?

Juro positions itself as a more accessible, modern alternative to enterprise CLM platforms. Key differences: Juro offers unlimited users on all plans (Ironclad charges per seat), has a published 15% nonprofit discount (Ironclad has no published nonprofit pricing), and is faster to implement. Ironclad offers more advanced agentic AI features and is Salesforce's trusted CLM partner. Choose Juro for accessibility and collaboration; choose Ironclad for enterprise-scale complexity.

Ready to Modernize Your Contract Management?

If your nonprofit is still managing contracts through email and shared drives, Juro's AI-native platform can bring structure, speed, and intelligence to your agreement process—with unlimited users and a 15% nonprofit discount.
