Before you share the details, know what stays protected
NDAs look simple until the exceptions, term limits, and one-way obligations start doing real work. Docly helps you see what the agreement covers and what it leaves open.
Docly caught a residual-rights clause I would have glossed over. I knew what to ask about before sharing the deck.

What people miss
One-way obligations
Language that protects the other party's information without giving yours the same treatment.
Short protection periods
Confidentiality terms that expire before the information stops mattering to your business.
Hidden extras
Non-solicit, non-compete, or IP language added to a document you expected to be just about confidentiality.
What Docly flags for you
Residual Rights
The recipient can use ideas retained in memory without treating them as confidential. That may weaken the practical protection you expected.
Confidentiality Term
The confidentiality obligation lasts only two years. Trade-secret or sensitive business information may need longer protection.
