Reviews incoming NDAs against your standards, classifies clauses using traffic light system, generates compliant redlines, and handles routine negotiations end-to-end—freeing your legal team for strategic work. All on your infrastructure.
"We process about 150 NDAs a month. Each one takes 2-4 hours of attorney time—review, redline, negotiate, finalize. That's 300-600 hours monthly on agreements that are 90% identical. My associates are drowning in routine work while strategic projects wait. We've tried playbooks. We've tried templates. We've tried checklists. Nothing scales. And the worst part? Half the time, counterparties accept our changes without pushback. We're spending hours negotiating terms nobody will fight us on. There has to be a better way."
— Deputy General Counsel, Enterprise Software Company
Deploy an AI that reviews incoming NDAs against your playbook, classifies every clause, generates compliant redlines, and handles routine negotiations—so your team focuses on exceptions that actually need judgment.
Every clause analyzed against your standards. Green (accept), Amber (negotiate), Red (escalate). Your playbook applied consistently to every NDA, every time. No missed issues. No inconsistent treatment.
Non-standard clauses get compliant alternatives. Your approved language. Your fallback positions. Redlines generated in seconds, not hours. Tracked changes ready for counterparty review.
Green NDAs auto-processed end-to-end. Amber items negotiated within parameters. Red clauses escalated to counsel with full context. Your team only sees what actually needs human judgment.
Scope of confidential information, exclusions, and carve-outs that determine what's actually protected.
What the receiving party must do (and not do) with confidential information.
How long the agreement lasts and when confidentiality obligations survive.
What happens when something goes wrong—often the highest risk provisions.
Jurisdiction, governing law, and dispute resolution mechanisms.
Non-standard terms that require special attention and often escalation.
Enterprise software company receiving 150+ NDAs monthly from sales team. Each required 2-4 hours of attorney time. Now 85% are processed automatically with zero attorney involvement.
"NDA received from Acme Corporation. Classification: Mutual NDA. Template match: 94% to Standard Mutual NDA v3.2. Clause analysis complete. All 12 clauses within acceptable parameters. Green classification on all provisions: Definition of Confidential Information (standard), Permitted Disclosures (includes advisors—acceptable), Term (3 years—standard), Return of Materials (30 days—acceptable), Governing Law (Delaware—preferred). No red flags. No amber items. Auto-processing complete. Document countersigned and returned to counterparty. Total processing time: 4 minutes. Attorney involvement: None required."
Law firm noticed counterparties were "approver shopping"—learning which associates would accept aggressive terms. Agent now applies identical standards to every NDA regardless of who's handling it.
"NDA analysis: GlobalTech Partners. Historical note: This counterparty has submitted 7 NDAs in past 18 months. Pattern detected: Consistently includes unlimited injunctive relief clause (rejected 6 of 7 times). Current submission: Contains same unlimited injunctive relief provision (Section 8.2). Classification: RED - Escalate. However, applying standard playbook response: Proposed redline generated using approved fallback language: 'Party may seek injunctive relief as a remedy for breach, subject to proving actual or threatened irreparable harm.' This language accepted by counterparty in 5 of 6 prior negotiations. Recommendation: Apply standard redline. Estimated acceptance probability: 83% based on historical data. Attorney review required only if counterparty rejects standard fallback."
Counterparty submitted what appeared to be a standard mutual NDA. Agent detected a non-solicitation provision buried in definitions section that would have restricted hiring for 2 years.
"ALERT: Non-standard provision detected. Document: Mutual NDA from TechHire Solutions. Initial classification: Standard mutual NDA (87% template match). However, anomaly detected in Section 1.4 (Definitions): Provision states: 'Confidential Information shall include the identity of and any information about Disclosing Party's employees, contractors, and consultants.' Combined with Section 3.2 (Use Restrictions): 'Receiving Party shall not use Confidential Information to recruit, solicit, or hire any person.' Analysis: These provisions together create a de facto non-solicitation agreement embedded within an NDA. Duration: Tied to NDA term (3 years) plus survival period (2 years) = 5 years total restriction. Classification: RED - Immediate escalation. Risk assessment: High. This would significantly restrict hiring from counterparty and their contractors for 5 years. Recommended action: Escalate to senior counsel. Suggest deletion of Section 1.4 employee definition or carve-out from Section 3.2 use restrictions."
Sales team complained NDAs were taking 3 days average. Deals stalling. Agent reduced turnaround to 4 hours for standard NDAs, same-day for urgent requests flagged by sales.
"Urgent NDA request received. Source: Sales (Jennifer Martinez). Customer: Fortune 500 prospect. Context: Final stage of $2.4M deal. Customer legal requires signed NDA before technical due diligence scheduled for tomorrow 9 AM. Received: 4:47 PM. Analysis initiated: 4:47 PM. Document type: Counterparty paper (customer's template). Template match: 71% to Standard Corporate NDA. Clause analysis: 14 provisions identified. Results: 11 Green (acceptable as-is), 2 Amber (minor deviations), 1 Red (governing law—customer requires their state). Amber items: Return period (10 days vs. our 30 days standard—acceptable). Survival period (5 years vs. our 3 years—acceptable for this deal size). Red item: Governing law (Texas vs. our Delaware preference). Recommendation: Accept Texas governing law given deal size ($2.4M) and customer tier (Fortune 500). This exception within pre-approved parameters for deals >$1M with investment-grade counterparties. Action taken: Document approved with noted exceptions. Countersigned copy returned to Sales at 5:12 PM. Total turnaround: 25 minutes. Deal status: Technical due diligence proceeded on schedule."
