Running it, start to finish
- Paste the full agreement and say which side you are.
- Check the carve-outs and whether use is restricted as well as disclosure.
- Take the section 9 questions to a qualified lawyer.
What you get back
The output this produces, every time.
- Checks the standard carve-outs are present, whose absence turns a routine NDA into a real constraint.
- Distinguishes a disclosure restriction from a use restriction, which is far broader.
- Flags the non-NDA clauses — non-compete, IP assignment — that get bundled in more often than expected.
Getting better results
Where this usually goes wrong, and how to avoid it.
- Check the carve-outs first. Section 3 is the fastest read and the highest-value one. Missing exceptions are the most common serious problem.
- Watch for use restrictions. An NDA that restricts use as well as disclosure can prevent you working in an area. That is a much bigger commitment than confidentiality.
- Read section 6 before signing anything routine. Non-competes and IP assignment clauses appear inside NDAs surprisingly often, precisely because nobody expects them there.
