Introduction

Renewals and price adjustments are often the most overlooked levers for revenue growth. Yet in many organizations, these processes are still manual, reactive, and inconsistent—leaving millions on the table. Contracts sit untouched until the last minute, and pricing decisions are often based on gut feel or rigid rule sets.

Agentic AI changes that.

With the ability to observe customer behavior, learn from similar accounts, and reason through pricing scenarios, intelligent agents can now proactively manage renewals, recommend price changes, and generate fully customized proposals—without human intervention.

The Challenge with Traditional Renewal Processes

Here’s what most businesses struggle with:

• Renewals triggered only by calendar reminders
• Static pricing models that ignore real-time usage, satisfaction, or market signals
• Inconsistent renewal proposal quality across teams
• Missed upsell or cross-sell opportunities
• Fear of pricing conversations due to lack of data

📉 According to Accenture, only 16% of companies say their renewal process is fully automated or insight-driven.

What Agentic AI Enables

Agentic AI doesn’t just automate tasks—it reasons, adapts, and takes initiative. Here’s how it transforms renewal and pricing workflows:

🔍 1. Contract Scanning & Context Awareness

Agents continuously monitor customer contract lifecycles and usage patterns. They:

• Track renewal dates
• Pull in consumption and product adoption data
• Analyze SLA adherence and support ticket history

🧠 2. Intelligent Price Recommendations

Based on trends across similar customers, current satisfaction levels, and usage metrics, the agent recommends:

• Renewal pricing tiers
• Discount adjustments
• Justified price increases

It also considers:

• Historical pricing
• Current revenue impact
• Willingness to pay indicators

📄 3. Automated Proposal Generation

Once conditions are met, the agent:

• Drafts a renewal contract
• Updates pricing
• Personalizes the message using tone/style from previous communications

It can also prepare multiple proposal versions—based on different negotiation paths (e.g., keep-as-is, upgrade plan, multi-year discount).

📈 4. Predictive Success Scoring

The agent scores each renewal opportunity based on likelihood to close and flags cases needing human attention.

💡 One B2B SaaS firm implemented Agentic renewal agents and saw a 28% increase in renewal rates, a 12% lift in average contract value, and a 3x faster turnaround on proposals.

A Real-World Example

A mid-size managed services provider had over 400 contracts renewing every quarter. Sales reps were manually pulling usage data and updating PDFs. It was slow, error-prone, and inconsistent.

By deploying an Agentic Renewal Agent, they automated:

• Contract lifecycle tracking
• Usage-based price tiering
• Cross-sell suggestions (based on adjacent product use)

Outcomes after 90 days:

• 40% of proposals fully auto-generated
• $1.2M in annualized uplift from smart pricing adjustments
• 3 hours saved per renewal case
