NDA Agent
The NDA Agent reviews incoming non-disclosure agreements against your standard and drafts outgoing ones from your approved template in minutes. It checks the definition of confidential information, duration, carve-outs, POPIA obligations, governing law and jurisdiction, and remedies, then returns a marked-up draft or a clean agreement ready for signature.

Indicative figures. We measure your own baseline in the first fortnight so the numbers you see are yours.
No more NDA queue
NDAs are high-volume and low-margin, yet they hold up deals and supplier onboarding. The agent clears them quickly so your lawyers can focus on the substantive agreements.
Consistent positions on what matters
Duration, carve-outs and remedies are checked against the same standard every time, so no business unit signs something weaker than you intended.
Personal information handled properly
Where the NDA covers personal information, the agent checks for POPIA-compliant handling, security and return or destruction obligations.
Capabilities
Turn NDAs around in minutes, on your terms, every time.
Built for in-house legal teams, commercial attorneys, company secretaries and deal teams at South African corporates, law firms, private equity houses and advisory firms.
Incoming NDA review
Compares a counterparty NDA to your standard and marks every departure, from one-way versus mutual obligations to non-solicitation clauses hidden in the draft.
Outgoing NDA drafting
Generates a mutual or one-way NDA from your approved template using the parties, purpose and term captured from a short request.
Confidential information and carve-outs
Checks that the definition is neither too narrow nor too broad, and that standard carve-outs for public, already-known and independently developed information are present.
POPIA obligations
Where personal information is shared, checks for lawful processing, security safeguards, breach notification and conditions on transfers outside South Africa under section 72.
Duration, jurisdiction and remedies
Tests the confidentiality period, return or destruction obligations, governing law, choice of South African courts or arbitration, and the availability of interdicts.
Signature-ready output
Produces a clean execution version for electronic signature under the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act, and logs the agreement for tracking.
How it works
From your systems to a result you sign off
A legal adviser approves any departure from your standard, and an authorised signatory signs the agreement.

Deployment
Runs inside the tools your team already uses
The same agent and the same cited output, delivered three ways: through the AI assistant you have rolled out, on a model you host yourself, or inside your own software.
In the frontier assistant you already pay for
We publish the agent as an MCP server. Add it as a connector and your team calls it from the chat they use every day, with no new tool to learn.
"Pull the key terms from the NDA"

- Incoming, mutual
- purpose
- Potential acquisition
On a model you host yourself
Run the agent on open-weight models in your data centre or private cloud. Your confidentiality agreements never leave your network, which keeps POPIA and data residency straightforward.
- Llama
- Mistral
- Ollama
- or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint
Inside your own software
Trigger a run from your own workflows, and push the finished output into your ERP, GRC or reporting systems. We build the integration with your team.
- REST API
- Webhooks
- Batch jobs
- Embeddable review panel
Governed the same way, every route
Whichever way your team reaches the agent, identity, permissions and audit stay with your existing controls.
- Single sign-on through Entra ID, Okta or Google Workspace
- Reads only the documents each user is already allowed to open
- Every tool call written to an audit log you can export
How we deliver it
One agent, three ways to hold it
Start where your team already works, then take it as far into your systems as the value justifies.
DATA SECURITY & PRIVACY
Your confidentiality agreements stay yours.
The agent runs inside your tenancy, reads only what each task needs, and never trains on your confidentiality agreements. Every step is logged so your auditors can see exactly what it touched.
Built for regulated work.
+YOUR CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENTS NEVER LEAVE YOUR ENVIRONMENT
