An AI tool built only for legal work that researches case law, reviews contracts, and analyzes large document sets for law firms and in-house teams.
A legal and compliance tool for private equity firms that reviews routine deal documents at high volume, used by 9 of the top 10 PEI-ranked firms.
Ontra AI is a legal and compliance tool built for private equity and other private market firms. Legal and deal teams use it to review and negotiate routine agreements, like NDAs, at high volume. Its AI summarizes contract terms, searches across deals for answers, and compares clauses side by side. Ontra also offers entity setup, due diligence forms, and fund obligation tracking in the same tool. The company reports more than 1,000 private market firms as customers, including 9 of the top 10 PEI-ranked firms, and holds ISO 27001 and SOC 2 certifications while stating it meets GDPR and CCPA rules.
This fits a private equity firm or other private market fund with a high volume of routine legal agreements; legal ops and general counsel teams at fund managers are the typical buyers, more than a traditional corporate legal department. Ontra does not publish pricing, since it sells through direct enterprise contracts often bundled with managed legal services, so ask for a quote scoped to your agreement volume and whether you want software alone or managed review included. A good starting point is piloting the AI search and summary features on one agreement type, like NDAs, adding managed services later if needed. The main thing to check is fit, since Ontra is built around fund and deal work and a company outside private markets may not need its specific feature set.

Benefits have not been estimated: The current research does not estimate potential savings, return on investment, or how long it would take to recover the cost. Earlier benefit estimates are excluded.
Confirm current product identity, commercial packaging, data processing terms, sign-in and access rules, retention, integrations, support model, implementation effort, and rollback conditions.
Verify identity, package, availability, ownership, pricing, and security evidence before approving a pilot
Do not approve a pilot yet. Verify the current product identity, package, availability, owner, pricing, and security evidence; then define one workflow, a baseline, and rollback criteria.
Define what success looks like for a test of Ontra AI and assign someone to lead it.
Once the requirements above are met, compare a small trial with how your team works today.
Track adoption, output quality, business results, and actual costs against the estimate.
Use the results to decide whether to stop, adjust, or expand the pilot.
Confirm encryption, how the vendor uses your data, customer data separation, how long data stays and how to delete it, activity records, sign-in and user setup, where data is handled, other companies that process data, past incidents, and what your team must manage.
Review before rollout: confirm how to export your data, revoke access, and return to your existing workflow. Assign an owner and test the rollback plan before expanding use.
