What it does

Fast-tracks the highest-volume, lowest-risk contract type. When an NDA lands in the intake folder, the workflow checks it against your approved template and, if it matches, auto-approves and logs it to an Airtable audit trail. Anything non-standard is escalated for human review instead.

When to use it

Use it when your team signs many mutual NDAs and reviewing each one by hand is wasted effort. Ideal for legal ops that want to reserve human attention for genuinely modified agreements while keeping a clean audit record of everything approved.

How it works

  1. 1A new NDA file in the Google Drive intake folder triggers the run.
  2. 2The document text is read from Drive.
  3. 3OpenAI classifies the NDA as standard or modified and lists any deviations from the template.
  4. 4A logic step branches: standard NDAs proceed to auto-approval, modified ones go to escalation.
  5. 5Standard NDAs are written to the Airtable audit log marked approved.
  6. 6Modified NDAs are posted to Slack for a reviewer to handle.
