NDA prep

Draft standard NDAs from your template with deal-specific details filled in.

A counterparty asks for an NDA and someone copies the template by hand. Hops drafts from your mutual-NDA template with the counterparty name, effective date and purpose filled in.

How it runs: Ask Hops, with a skill so the output has the same format every time. No automation needed.

What it does

• Starts from your template. Hops uses the mutual-NDA template in Google Drive or SharePoint, never a generic one.
• Fills the deal details. Counterparty legal name, effective date, governing law (per playbook) and purpose.
• Leaves the clauses alone. Substantive clauses are not edited; any requested change is flagged for legal review.
• Lists what it assumed. Missing details are called out so you can confirm before sending.
• Ready for signature. The draft can go to DocuSign or your e-signature tool once approved.

Ask Hops

Copy a prompt into any chat with Hops, or mention @Hops in a Space.

Draft NDAs for the three vendors in the attached list.

Which counterparties in the list already have an NDA on file?

Example reply:

NDA draft prepared:

• Uses our standard mutual-NDA template.
• Parties, date and purpose filled in.
• Flagged for legal review: requested 3 year term differs from the template.

What you get

• A draft in chat, in the same thread, with the filled details and anything flagged.
• A saved Doc, when you ask for one. Say “save this as a doc” and Hops writes the NDA to Docs in the Space.
