Hi everyone!

Finally, I feel like I can share what I’ve been building behind the scenes.

AND I AM FUCKING PROUD OF THIS ONE! 🔥

What do you think something like this is worth?

I’ve built an end-to-end contract automation pipeline that runs 100% inside the Microsoft ecosystem. The best part? There is ZERO AI in this flow. Just pure, deterministic, enterprise-grade automation that works flawlessly every single time—and costs next to nothing to run!

⚙️ How the Flow Works:

Drop & Trigger:

You drop a .pdf file into a specific SharePoint folder. This instantly triggers a Power Automate flow that extracts the data and generates a draft contract.

Interactive Teams Approval:

The person who uploaded the file receives an automated notification in Microsoft Teams. Right inside Teams, they can:

View the uploaded source file.
Review the generated draft contract.
Approve or deny the contract.
Edit key values directly (edits apply to the final executed contract).

E-Signing (No Third-Party Fees):

Once approved, the contract is automatically emailed to the customer with a unique link to review and e-sign.

Customers can sign using a mouse, touch screen, stylus, or by uploading a signature image.
Note: You can plug in Adobe Sign or DocuSign, but why pay per signature during testing when you can build it yourself? 😉

Legally Sound Audit Trail:

The system captures and logs full verification parameters:

[Signed By], [Signed At], [Signer Email], [Signer IP], [Signer Device], [Signature Method], [Document Hash], [Reference], [Approved By], [Approved At].

Final Delivery & Auto-Cleanup:

Once signed, the finalized contract is emailed to both parties. The flow then automatically deletes all temporary input and output files, leaving a clean footprint where only the two emailed contracts exist.

🛡️ Built for Enterprise & Clients

Bulletproof Reliability: Built-in safety features prevent duplicate entries, invalid file formats, or missing data fields.

Security & Governance: Because it runs entirely within Microsoft 365, corporate security compliance is top-tier out of the box.

Massive Cost Savings: At roughly $0.05 per 100 contracts, it is practically free to run at scale compared to traditional SaaS tools.

Speed: From dropping the file in SharePoint to the customer getting the signing link takes just a few minutes.

🛠️ The Tech Stack & Deployment

I built the entire flow architecture using Claude Code.

This setup is fully modular and customizable—designed as a master template to showcase to prospective clients. When deploying to a client, I can simply export the build, import it directly into their tenant, and map their specific SharePoint paths and API keys.

What do you guys think?

I know the video could be better - but sometimes you just need to go with what you got :)
