NDA Generator

A non-disclosure agreement is usually the first legal document exchanged before two parties start sharing anything sensitive — a business idea before a partnership discussion, financial data before a due-diligence process, source code before a contractor starts work. Without one, information shared in good faith has no formal protection if the relationship sours or a counterpart talks to a competitor. This generator produces a complete NDA in the format that lawyers and business partners immediately recognise.

Choose mutual (both parties may share confidential information and both are bound to protect what they receive — the standard choice for partnership and collaboration discussions) or one-way (only one party discloses, the other simply receives and protects — typical when a company shares information with a contractor or vendor). The generated document covers what counts as confidential information, the receiving party's obligations, standard carve-outs (information already known, publicly available, independently developed, or required to be disclosed by law), the term of the agreement, and governing law.

An NDA is meant to be signed before the sensitive conversation happens, not after — its protective value depends on being in place before anything confidential changes hands. Have a lawyer review the term length and confidentiality scope against your specific situation, particularly for high-stakes discussions like M&A or significant IP disclosure, where a generic template may need sharper language.
