Where Kept wins

  • No card required — works from contracts.
  • Handles non-SaaS contracts.
  • Fraction of the price.
  • AI reading + MCP.

Where Cledara wins

  • Card-based enforcement and virtual-card issuance.

If you need those, Cledara may be a better fit. If you want a fast, cheap way to stop contracts auto-renewing unnoticed, Kept is built for that.
