Legal service platform · OTel-first evidence

Contract-grade evidence for enterprise service agreements

Trust GTW reconciles telemetry from both counterparties into a neutral, tamper-evident record of every obligation, breach, notice, and remedy under your service agreements.

Why now

Why this matters now

Service agreements became operational

SLAs, credits, notice periods, and remedies now depend on runtime behavior that no legal team can see.

Enterprises carry contractual exposure both ways

The same company is a client under some agreements and a provider under others, with obligations running in both directions.

Evidence is still reconstructed by hand

Breach claims are still assembled from logs, tickets, dashboards, emails, and screenshots, months after the fact.

Service agreements & SLAs

Model every SA and the SLAs underneath it, with thresholds, exclusions, notice periods, and remedy terms.

Breach evidence

Detect and evidence breaches with reconciled telemetry from both counterparties, not one side's word.

Remedies & compliance

Track remedies from pending to applied, and report contract compliance on a fixed cadence.

Unforgeable record

Every entry is sealed in an append-only ledger designed to hold up under legal and audit scrutiny.

Obligations Notices Acknowledgements Maintenance windows Breaches Exclusions Remedies Disputes Resolutions Audit exports

The current gap

Agreements are static. Service relationships are not.

The agreement says what should happen. Production systems show what actually happened. Most enterprises still connect the two by hand, after an incident, when the relationship is already under legal and commercial stress.

  • Evidence has no legal standing Dashboards and log exports are easy to dispute because each side produces its own version of the same event.
  • Notices are hard to prove Maintenance, deprecation, and migration notices need durable delivery and acknowledgement records tied to the agreement.
  • Breaches surface too late By the time a breach is recognized, the notice window has often closed and the remedy is no longer available.
  • Remedies go unclaimed Service credits and other remedies depend on exclusions, windows, and timing that are rarely evidenced well enough to claim.

How it works

From agreement terms to enforceable evidence

  1. Map counterparties

    Onboard every provider and client, and the service relationships that connect them to your business.

  2. Model agreements

    Encode service agreements, the SLAs under each contract, exclusions, notice periods, and remedy terms.

  3. Mirror telemetry

    Stream OpenTelemetry traces, metrics, and operational events from one or both sides through existing collectors.

  4. Operate the relationship

    Run maintenance calendars, on-call rotations, war rooms, and breach alerts against live obligations.

  5. Settle and report

    Record breaches, drive remedies to applied, and publish daily, weekly, monthly, and annual compliance reports.

Differentiation

Not observability. Not a contract repository. Not a ticket queue.

01

Not a monitoring replacement

Observability shows behavior. Trust GTW turns behavior into legal evidence bound to an agreement.

02

Not a contract repository

Storing the PDF is not compliance. Obligations, breaches, remedies, and deadlines stay connected and live.

03

Not one side's version

Evidence is reconciled between counterparties and sealed, so neither side can rewrite the record.

Platform

Everything a service agreement needs, in one record

Each customer runs their full counterparty landscape in Trust GTW — every provider, every client, every agreement, and the operational surface that keeps them enforceable.

Counterparties & agreements

Who you are contractually exposed to, and on what terms.

Providers

Every upstream provider you depend on, with the obligations they owe you and their live compliance posture.

Clients

Every downstream client you serve, with the obligations you owe them and your exposure under each agreement.

Service agreements & SLAs

All service agreements, and all SLAs under each SA contract, with thresholds, exclusions, notice periods, and remedy terms.

Live operations

The day-to-day surface that keeps obligations enforceable in real time.

Scheduled maintenance calendar

Planned windows across all counterparties, with notices, acknowledgements, and the traffic each window affects.

On-call support for war rooms

On-call rotations and live war rooms that keep incident response tied to the obligations in play.

Breach alerts

Breach detection backed by neutral evidence from both sides, raised while the notice window is still open.

Accountability & reporting

What happens after a breach, and what you can prove at the end of the period.

Remedies

Every remedy tracked from pending to applied, with the evidence and agreement clause behind it.

Reports

Daily, weekly, monthly, and annual contract compliance reporting for legal, finance, and audit.

Integration

OTel-first, and nothing in your traffic path

Trust GTW integrates through the OpenTelemetry pipeline your platform teams already run. Service traffic stays direct between counterparties. Trust GTW never becomes a dependency of a production request, and there is no proxy, sidecar, or interception layer to deploy.

No traffic-path dependency

Requests never transit Trust GTW, so onboarding carries no availability risk.

Native collector pipeline

Point an existing OTel Collector exporter at Trust GTW and start producing evidence.

Neutral reconciliation

Client-side and provider-side views of the same event are matched, so neither side owns the record.

Contract-aware from ingest

Spans and events are evaluated against the SLA, exclusions, and notices at ingest, not months later.

Neutrality

Built to protect both sides

As a client

  • Independent evidence of provider performance
  • Complete incident, maintenance, and notice history
  • Remedies claimed before the window closes
  • Less ambiguity when escalating with a vendor

As a provider

  • Protection against invalid or inflated claims
  • Proof of notices, acknowledgements, and exclusions
  • Evidence of out-of-contract traffic and misuse
  • Customer trust through transparent accountability

Security & privacy

Evidence that cannot be rewritten, and privacy that still holds

Legal evidence is only useful if it is provably untouched. Trust GTW is built on a ledger architecture that makes every entry verifiable, while keeping personal data erasable.

Ledger security architecture

Entries are append-only and cryptographically chained, so any alteration or omission is detectable.

Unforgeable evidence

Each record carries an integrity hash linked to the entry before it, producing a verifiable chain of custody.

Crypto-shredding support

Personal data is encrypted with per-subject keys. Destroying a key erases the data while the chain stays verifiable.

GDPR compliance

Data-subject rights, retention limits, and lawful processing are designed into the record, not bolted on.

Evidence availability, latency, and incident timelines where failed calls create direct revenue, reconciliation, or regulatory impact.

Logistics & supply chain

Hold carrier, warehouse, and routing obligations to the agreement when missed updates break fulfillment commitments.

Marketplaces & platforms

Maintain a neutral record between platform, sellers, partners, and payment providers when service issues hit orders or payouts.

Enterprise SaaS

Support customer-facing SLAs, deprecation programs, and escalations with evidence legal, success, and support teams can share.

Design partner fit

Who we want to talk to

Legal and legal operations leaders

You own service agreements, breach positions, and remedy claims, but depend on engineering to prove what happened.

Vendor management and procurement teams

You run renewals, credits, and escalations, and need operational evidence that survives dispute pressure.

Platform, SRE, and infrastructure leaders

You own availability, latency, and incident history, and already run OpenTelemetry across the estate.

Enterprise operators with two-way exposure

Your company is both client and provider across critical service agreements, in fintech, logistics, marketplaces, SaaS, or data.

Private design partners

Have a service agreement worth proving?

We are looking for design partners with real contractual pain: disputed SLAs, unclear maintenance communication, deprecation conflicts, unclaimed remedies, or accountability gaps with a critical provider or client.

No sales automation. We are looking for real legal and operational stories.

Best fit: large enterprises in fintech, payments, logistics, marketplaces, enterprise SaaS, and data services, with existing OpenTelemetry infrastructure.
