Frequently Asked Questions

The tool generates a starting template only. Whether a contract is binding depends on the facts, jurisdiction, parties, signatures, consideration, and enforceability of the clauses.

Yes. Change the document type to Mutual NDA and edit the purpose, confidentiality, ownership, termination, and governing law clauses.

No. Use it to create a first draft. Important or high-value agreements should be reviewed by a qualified professional.

It includes a US or UK jurisdiction mode and default governing law wording, but you should still tailor the document to the specific state, country, and project.
