Contract Monitoring for Corporate & M&A Teams

DriftPatrol monitors target company terms, vendor SLAs, and regulatory pages during the period between LOI and close — flagging any material change within 24 hours so the deal team can assess rep-and-warranty implications before the closing table.

Between LOI and close, anything can change. Target company TOS, vendor SLA, regulator guidance. DriftPatrol watches those pages daily and alerts you within 24 hours of any material change.

The diligence gap: from LOI to close

M&A due diligence captures a snapshot of the target at a point in time. The problem is that the interval between LOI and close — typically 60-120 days — is long enough for material changes to occur in the target's vendor agreements, regulatory standing, and published terms. A vendor adds an AI subprocessor to the DPA. A state regulator revises a license condition. The target's TOS adds a class-action waiver affecting a consumer-facing business. Each of these changes may affect the rep-and-warranty schedule, the disclosure obligations, or the deal price.

DriftPatrol's continuous monitoring fills the gap between the initial diligence snapshot and the closing date.

What corporate teams monitor with DriftPatrol

Target company pages

TOS, privacy policy, published pricing, licensing and certification pages. Any change between LOI and close is flagged as a potential rep-and-warranty event.

Vendor agreements

Key vendor SLAs and DPAs that are part of the deal thesis. Changes to material obligations are flagged with before-and-after clause language for rapid assessment.

Regulatory & licensing pages

Regulator pages relevant to the target's industry — licensing requirements, enforcement priorities, fee schedules. Changes that affect the deal's regulatory risk profile are surfaced immediately.

Post-close: watch the integration

After closing, the vendor agreements and regulatory obligations of the acquired entity become your client's. DriftPatrol continues monitoring post-close to catch vendor term changes during the integration period — the highest-risk window for SLA erosion and data term changes as vendors recognize the ownership change.
