Pakt — NDAs with biometric proof.
We sign for a $4,000 television with a finger on a delivery driver's pad and call it binding. We sign mortgages, car loans, lease applications, and medical consent forms on a screen — and courts uphold them under E-SIGN and UETA. The signature on a stranger's clipboard has more legal weight than most of the conversations we have about our actual ideas.
That's the part PAKT is trying to fix.
The everyday case for an NDA isn't a lawsuit. It's a coffee meeting, a sample shown to a producer, a deck handed to an early hire, a side project pitched to a friend who knows somebody. The cost of getting something signed before that conversation is so high — find a template, redline it, email it, chase it, fail to chase it — that most people just skip it. And then the conversation either doesn't happen, or it happens unprotected.
When an NDA does get challenged, courts hear the same four objections, in some combination, almost every time. I never signed that. That's not my signature. Someone else used my phone. Where's the proof? Most e-signature tools answer the first one and stop. PAKT was built to close all four at the moment of signing — finger signature for identity, front-camera witness video for authenticity, Face ID attestation for custody, encrypted server-validated receipt for proof — and to bundle the result into a single tamper-evident record before either party has put their phone away.
The legal template knows your state. All fifty of them. UTSA status, bond-waiver enforceability, the DTSA whistleblower notice, the workplace disclosure language that California, Hawaii, Illinois, Oregon, and Washington require verbatim — PAKT rewrites the agreement for the jurisdiction you pick before either of you signs.
PAKT is built by Class of NONE LLC, a small California operation. We are software people, not a law firm. The product exists because the founder kept being in rooms where an NDA would have been smart and nobody had the patience for the version of "getting one signed" that DocuSign expects from you. We made the version we wanted to use, and then made it more defensible than the version a lawyer would have given us — because the evidence chain is built into the moment, not reconstructed from email threads after the fact.
For everything we do not do — custom drafting, jurisdiction-specific advice, the kind of negotiation a real attorney runs — PAKT is not a substitute. For the conversation that's happening tomorrow morning, between two people, where the alternative is no NDA at all, it's the tool we wish had existed.
