They have negotiating leverage over you
They find something really bad and your price is impacted or your deal slips
That's why many advisors recommend sell-side diligence: to uncover risks early, maybe even in time to remediate them. Sell-side diligence is common practice in the UK , Europe, and Australia—but rare in North America, mostly because it's very expensive. Law firms charge hundreds of thousands of dollars to do this work, all before a deal looks sure to happen.
Scans your contracts for diligence-relevant language that could impact deals.
Biglaw-trained corporate counsel review and contextualize results.
You get a home-inspection-style diligence report—fast, affordable, actionable.
Use the report to get a jump on the most painful part of disclosure schedules (or just have us work on these directly).
Bring Zuva into your deal as early as you are ready, ideally after some work has been done collecting documents for review. Instruct Zuva on exactly what needs to be reviewed (if non-standard).
Load Zuva AI with documents for review (with the assistance of Zuva technical personnel). Zuva’s proprietary AI scans contracts for specified diligence-relevant information. A Biglaw-experienced corporate lawyer on the Zuva team reviews the AI’s results (e.g., noting that though some contracts have exclusivity restrictions, these run to the seller’s benefit, so aren’t problematic in a deal).
Zuva technical and administrative personnel compile results into a home-inspection-like pre-screen report and preliminary disclosure schedules. The experienced Zuva lawyer reviews the draft reports. Zuva delivers the pre-screen report and preliminary disclosure schedules.
Our AI is purpose-built for this work. Most leading law firms use Kira for buy-side due diligence, and our team founded, grew, and sold Kira. We retained a copy of the underlying Kira AI as part of that sale—meaning that we can pre-screen using virtually the same tech many buyers use in diligence.
In addition to having previously built one of the leading legal AI companies, Zuva’s team have worked on many M&A and financing deals. We have ex-Biglaw lawyers on staff. Our AI research team (with computer science PhDs) does real research that we use in products and publish about. Our CEO Noah Waisberg—the best-selling author of AI for Lawyers—was recently named by the Financial Times as one of the top 20 legal innovation market shapers of the past two decades.
Zuva is SOC2 Type II certified. All employees are background checked.
