Workflow solution / Legal operations
NDA Deal Triage
A legal workflow prototype for quickly separating routine NDA work from real deal risk.
A triage surface that reframes NDA review as a business-risk workflow rather than a document-reading task.

Code Behind The Surface
Mapping deal context to review priority
jsThe core move behind the product surface.
const priority = scoreNda({
dealValue,
counterpartyType,
nonStandardTerms,
urgency,
dataExposure,
});Product Model
tsThe useful answer has to be modeled before the UI can make it obvious.
type ProductSurface = {
input: "Legal operations";
signal: "Can a legal intake tool help business teams understand which NDAs deserve attention ";
proof: string[];
};
const surface: ProductSurface = {
input: "Legal operations",
signal: "Risk level, urgency, clause flags, and missing business context.",
proof: [
"Deal-context intake",
"Clause-risk prompts",
"Priority scoring",
"Reviewer-ready summary"
],
};Hard Part
tsEvery build has a constraint: data quality, workflow shape, trust, speed, or operational risk.
const constraint = {
project: "NDA Deal Triage",
status: "Prototype",
category: "Workflow solution",
hardPart: "A better intake surface can reduce low-value review cycles and help counsel focus on the agreements that actua...",
};
shipSurface(constraint);Project Logic
Why This Exists
The point is not to show another screen. It is to show the gap, the build constraint, and the proof of work.
Mission
Can a legal intake tool help business teams understand which NDAs deserve attention before counsel reads every word?
NDA review mixes routine language, business context, and deal urgency. The bottleneck is getting the right context in front of the right reviewer.
Build
What Had To Work
I built a triage prototype that frames NDA review around deal context, clause risk, and reviewer priority.
Why It Matters
Mutual NDA / vendor diligence
Separates routine NDA review from real deal risk before legal time gets spent.
Hard Parts
Make The Signal Useful
Reduce cycle time and internal friction by making the business context visible before legal review starts.
Turn The Work Into A System
I built a triage prototype that frames NDA review around deal context, clause risk, and reviewer priority.
Prove The Wedge
A better intake surface can reduce low-value review cycles and help counsel focus on the agreements that actually carry deal or operational risk.
Decisions
Next Move
I would connect document parsing, add clause libraries, and create escalation paths for business, legal, and finance reviewers.

Market Gap
Demand exists, but the answer is missing.
Workflow Drag
The work is still too manual, slow, or scattered.
Product Wedge
A small surface could prove the larger opportunity.
