How the Free NDA Generator Works

Creating a non-disclosure agreement with this tool takes less than a minute. Select your NDA type (unilateral or mutual), fill in the party details, set the duration and governing law, toggle optional clauses on or off, and click "Generate NDA." The agreement is assembled entirely in your browser — no data is sent to any server. Preview the document, then download it as a PDF or copy the text to paste into your own document. No signup, no email, no hidden fees.

Types of Non-Disclosure Agreements

A unilateral NDA (one-way) protects one party's confidential information. It's used when only one side is sharing sensitive data — common for employee onboarding, contractor agreements, and investor presentations. A mutual NDA (two-way) protects both parties equally and is standard for business partnerships, joint ventures, and merger discussions where both sides share proprietary information.

This generator supports both types with appropriate language for each. For startup founders, mutual NDAs are typically preferred when discussing partnerships or co-founder arrangements, while unilateral NDAs work best for hiring and contracting.

Essential Clauses in Every NDA

A strong NDA should include: a clear definition of confidential information, the purpose for which disclosure is permitted, the duration of the agreement, exclusions (information already public or independently developed), and the governing law. Modern NDAs should also include an AI training prohibition clause — preventing the receiving party from using your data to train machine learning models. This generator includes all these essentials plus optional clauses for non-solicitation, injunctive relief, and indemnification.

NDA vs Confidentiality Agreement

An NDA and a confidentiality agreement are the same document — just different names. "NDA" (Non-Disclosure Agreement) is the term most commonly used in tech, startups, and casual business contexts. "Confidentiality agreement" is the more formal term preferred in corporate, legal, and government settings. Both are equally valid and legally binding when properly executed. This generator creates a document that works under either name.
