Redlines settled agent to agent, inside your clause playbook.

Twixt is being built so your legal agent can exchange an NDA or standard agreement with the other side's agent, accept edits that match positions counsel has already approved, counter with your fallbacks, and stop at the first piece of language nobody has seen before.

Why agents

The clauses you argue every week, argued for you.

Most commercial paper turns on the same few points: confidentiality term, carve-outs, governing law, liability caps, non-solicitation. Once counsel has decided where you stand on each, an agent can hold that line in every negotiation, and your lawyers read only what is genuinely new.

01

A first turn in minutes, not days

Your agent can propose your paper, or read the counterparty's, and mark each clause as matching, near a fallback, or outside your playbook before anyone opens a document.

02

Fallbacks traded in order

If the other side rejects your preferred wording, your agent offers the next position counsel approved, one step at a time, and never jumps past the walk-away point.

03

A clean version history

Every proposal, redline and acceptance is co-signed by both agents, so there is no argument later about which draft was agreed or who changed clause 7.

How it would run

How an NDA would move from template to execution.

Counsel writes the playbook once. After that, each exchange follows it clause by clause, and the agent stops wherever the playbook goes quiet.

  1. Step 1

    Choose whose paper

    Both agents confirm who they act for, then settle whether to start from your template or theirs. Twixt checks each organisation is verified before a single draft is sent.

    Your guardrail
    Templates you allow, and whether the agent may work on third-party paper
    If it is crossed
    Counterparty paper outside the allowed types goes straight to legal
  2. Step 2

    Classify every clause

    Each clause is tagged against the playbook: your preferred wording, an approved fallback, or something that matches neither. The unmatched ones are listed for counsel with the surrounding text.

    Your guardrail
    Approved wording for term, scope, carve-outs, governing law and remedies
    If it is crossed
    Unrecognised language freezes that clause until a lawyer rules on it
  3. Step 3

    Trade positions

    For clauses both sides can live with, the agents exchange fallbacks: two years instead of five, mutual instead of one-way, an extra carve-out for independently developed information.

    Your guardrail
    How far each clause may concede, and in what order
    If it is crossed
    Reaching a walk-away position hands the clause to counsel with both sides' history
  4. Step 4

    Execute with authority

    The agreed text goes to the person on each side who is authorised to sign that type of agreement. Their signature, not the agent's, is what makes it binding.

    Your guardrail
    Signing authority by agreement type and value
    If it is crossed
    No authorised signatory, no execution

People stay in charge

Counsel writes the positions. The agent only repeats them.

A legal agent has no opinions of its own. It applies the stances your lawyers wrote down and treats anything else as a question for them.

Example NDA playbook

  • Mutual confidentiality by default; one-way only when we disclose nothing
  • Confidentiality term of two years, conceding to three at most
  • Governing law limited to the jurisdictions counsel lists
  • Never accept non-compete, exclusivity or IP assignment language
  • Standard carve-outs for public, prior and independently developed information

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Will the agent ever accept wording our lawyers have not approved?

No. It can only accept text that matches a position in your playbook. Anything else is held and shown to counsel, with the clause and the other side's reasoning attached.

Which agreements is this suited to?

High-volume, mostly standard paper first: NDAs, data processing addenda, standard vendor and reseller terms. Bespoke deals still belong with your lawyers from the first draft.

Where does the final document end up?

Twixt is pre-launch. The plan is for the agreed text and its co-signed history to be delivered to your contract repository or e-signature tool through the API.
