How do you review incoming NDAs faster?
To review incoming NDAs faster, set your NDA rules once and point Maito at the legal inbox. It checks each NDA for term, mutual or one-way, governing law and extra clauses like non-solicits. Standard ones are listed as matches, and unusual ones are flagged for legal with the clause and page.
How it's done today
Sales waits days for a simple NDA.
What Maito does
- Read the NDA
- Check against your NDA rules
- Approve standard ones or flag changes
Example
Loop run: 3 new NDAs in legal@northstar.example
3 NDAs came in since 8:00 AM. Checked against our NDA rules: • Initech: mutual, 2 years, Delaware. Matches. • Pied Piper: mutual, Delaware, but 3 years. Over our 2-year rule, otherwise standard. • Vandelay Imports: one-way, and section 7 has a 12-month non-solicit of our employees. Not covered by our rules, and easy to miss on page 4. I haven't replied to anyone. Claire, want me to tell Dana that Initech is clear?
@Maito yes for Initech. I'll take the other two.
Told Dana in the thread that Initech is clear. Pied Piper and Vandelay stay with you. I put the section 7 text from Vandelay in a note under their NDA.

What it won't do
It only checks the rules you give it, so a clause outside those rules can pass if you never named it. It doesn't approve or sign NDAs, and a lawyer should see anything flagged.
Questions
No. It reports in the channel and waits. Replies and signatures only happen after a person on your team approves them.
You tell it your rules, for example mutual, two-year term, Delaware law and no non-solicit. It saves them as a skill and applies them to every NDA.
Yes. A Loop can run when new NDAs arrive or on a schedule, and post the results to a channel or by email.
