Case Study: Exscientia saves nearly four hours a week automating NDAs with Gatekeeper

How Exscientia saved nearly four hours a week by automating NDAs

Exscientia, a UK-based pharmatech company using AI to accelerate drug discovery, needed a better way to manage a flood of contract and NDA requests. Before using Gatekeeper, the legal team handled agreements through email, Google Drive, and Excel, spending too much time chasing attachments, renaming files, and managing back-and-forth negotiations.

With Gatekeeper’s contract management platform, Exscientia streamlined NDA requests into a simple workflow: submit the form, negotiate within the system, then sign and file. Gatekeeper cut negotiation time in half, eliminated most administrative work, and saved Dan and his team nearly four hours per week, while also increasing base-draft NDA acceptance by 15%.
