NDA deviation review agent

Why you need it

‍
Most NDAs look the same at a glance, but small changes can create real risk. A longer confidentiality period, missing exclusions, tricky IP language, or unfamiliar governing law can slip through when you are moving fast. This agent helps you catch that. It extracts key clauses from an NDA, compares them to your company approved template, and highlights what is different. You get a quick risk rating so business owners know whether to sign, push back, or send to legal, along with a detailed Markdown review you can store or edit.
