Identify documents needed
Common startup needs: NDA, employment agreement, terms of service, privacy policy, partnership agreement.
Provide context to AI
Feed ChatGPT: your company details, specific terms, jurisdiction (India), and any non-standard clauses.
Generate first draft
Use a legal-specific prompt that produces structured documents with standard Indian legal language and clauses.
Self-review checklist
Check: parties correctly named, dates accurate, key terms defined, liability caps present, governing law specified.
Lawyer review
Send the AI draft to a lawyer for review. They refine (1-2 hours) instead of drafting from scratch (5-8 hours).
