For UK housing associations and local authorities

We read your documents. Then check every decision against the rules inside them.

Contracts, statutes and policies set the rules your organisation has to follow. They sit in PDFs that nobody has time to reread. Strata reads a contract once, turns it into rules your own experts confirm, and checks every invoice against them. It runs every information request against the statutory clock and checks every release before it goes out. Either way, you keep a record of how each answer was reached.

Two products, one way of working

Start with the one that matches your most pressing problem. Both are built to the same standard: your people make the decisions, the system applies them consistently, and every step is recorded.

Information requests

Requests by Strata AI

Subject access, freedom of information and erasure requests, run as cases against the statutory clock.

  • Deadlines calculated with UK bank holidays
  • Microsoft 365 search, personal data detection and true redaction
  • A release check that blocks anything that should not go out
Contract compliance

Strata | Contracts

Your contracts read once into rules your team confirms, then invoices checked against those rules before you pay.

  • Rules extracted from the contract and confirmed by your experts
  • The same invoice gives the same answer, every time
  • Connects through the exports and APIs you already have

The rules are written down. Nobody can check against them at scale.

An invoice is approved against the purchase order because nobody has the contract open beside it. A request is answered by emailing departments and searching inboxes, against a clock someone worked out by hand. Each decision is reasonable on the day. Months later, when a supplier, a tenant, an auditor or a regulator asks how it was made, the working is gone.

Strata keeps the working. Every answer shows the rule it applied and where that rule came from.

How it works

Read once. Confirm. Apply the same way every time.

  1. Read

    AI reads the governing document, such as a contract or a schedule of rates, and proposes the rules inside it.

  2. Confirm

    Your experts review the proposed rules and confirm them. Confirmed rules are frozen. When the document changes, only the parts that changed are read again.

  3. Apply

    Each invoice is checked against the confirmed rules. The check itself makes no call to an AI model, so the same input gives the same answer, and a decision can be replayed years later.

More on how it works

Runs in your Azure, alongside your systems

Strata is deployed into a dedicated tenancy inside your own Microsoft Azure subscription. It connects to your existing systems through the data exports and APIs they already have. Nothing is migrated and nothing is replaced.
