Encrypted Contracts for Small Businesses

Small businesses routinely handle sensitive client agreements without dedicated legal or IT staff; Noira encrypts those contracts in-browser so no party — including Noira — can read them, and a guided mode walks first-time users through each clause. Accounting and tax firms, local service providers, and first-time contract users get the same threshold-cryptography protection as a large enterprise, without hiring a lawyer to set it up.


USE CASE

How does Noira handle client engagement agreements?

Noira encrypts each engagement letter in-browser so the scope, fee, and confidentiality terms stay between you and your client — guided mode walks you through each clause.

Engagement letters set the scope of work, the fee, and the confidentiality terms you owe each client. For accounting and tax firms, that is sensitive material you do not want a third party reading. Noira encrypts the agreement in-browser using VetKeys threshold cryptography on the Internet Computer Protocol, so no single party — including Noira — can decrypt it. Guided mode walks first-time signers through each clause in plain language, so you can send a clean engagement letter without a lawyer operating the software.


USE CASE

Can I use Noira for vendor contracts?

Yes. Vendor agreements — software, suppliers, contractors — encrypt end-to-end so neither party's terms leak to a third party.

Local service providers sign vendor contracts for software, supplies, and subcontractors all the time. Those agreements often carry pricing, exclusivity, and liability terms you would not want exposed. Noira encrypts the document in-browser before it reaches its infrastructure, using VetKeys threshold cryptography so no single party can unilaterally decrypt. Guided mode explains each section before you sign, which matters most when you are reviewing a vendor's paper for the first time.


USE CASE

Does Noira work for employee NDAs?

Yes. Employee NDAs encrypt in-browser so the confidentiality terms stay between you and the employee — no third-party custodian can read them.

A small business's first hire often signs its first non-disclosure agreement. Noira encrypts the NDA in-browser using VetKeys threshold cryptography on the Internet Computer Protocol, so the confidentiality terms stay between you and the employee. Guided mode walks first-time signers through what each clause does, which is exactly the help a new employer or a new employee needs before signing a document they have never seen before.

Frequently asked questions

No. Noira is built for first-time contract users. Guided mode walks you through each clause in plain language, so you can draft, send, and sign a client agreement without hiring a lawyer to operate the software.

Guided mode is a step-by-step walkthrough of each clause in a contract template. Instead of facing a blank document, you answer a short series of plain-language questions and Noira assembles the agreement for you.
