Cross-border contracts, scoped before hours.

Orbid scopes cross-border contracts before anyone bills hours. A Matter Pack lists documents, facts, entities, gaps, and price-change triggers so a local licensed professional can price review. Orbid is not a law firm and does not give legal advice. There are ten categories, by name only: Confidentiality & pre-deal; Sales & services; Channel & distribution; Procurement & supply chain; Product, IP & technology; Data, privacy & security; Employment & people; Corporate, investment & JV; Regulatory & sector addenda; Disputes & termination. Startups usually buy a first pack (NDA, services or SaaS, employment or EOR, SAFE, and a DPA pointer). Mid-market teams buy systems: MSA and SOW programs, distribution nets, and an annual counsel module. Thailand is the live corridor. Singapore, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, and the United States are listed so a scope can still be requested. Get my scope before hours start.

How is a Matter Pack built?

  1. Describe the jobCorridor, counterparties, and the files you already have, in your language. Orbid does not draft or sign as counsel.
  2. We assemble the packDocuments, facts, entities, gaps, and what would change the price. Unknowns stay gaps, not silent extra hours.
  3. Local licensed reviewA licensed professional in the destination reviews the pack and prices the work that is in. Listed corridors accept the request; they do not promise a named lawyer standing by today.
  4. You approveNo legal work and no fees begin until you approve. If the project changes, a change order states the new scope and the new price.

Who is this contracts hub for?

  • Startups: a first pack small enough to price — NDA, services or SaaS, employment or EOR, SAFE or SHA, and a data-privacy / DPA pointer. Default is a single matter.
  • Mid-market: systems, not one PDF — MSA plus SOW programs, distribution nets, DPA and subprocessor lists, SHA or JV, employment templates. Default is an annual counsel module, still not a law firm.

Why scope contracts before hours?

  • Hours do not start on a vague dump. Cross-border contracts are named, facts are listed, and gaps stay visible before anyone bills.
  • Local licensed professionals review every engagement that is delivered. Orbid organizes the pack; it does not replace that review.
  • Orbid is not a law firm, not your counsel, and not a chatbot that answers as if it were.
  • If the project changes, the price does not jump in silence. A change order is the exception path.

Questions

What sits in a Matter Pack?

Documents to review, facts the client already asserts, entities that exist or are planned, gaps that still need answers, and triggers that would change the price.

Which destinations are live?

Thailand is the live corridor: local licensed professionals there review every engagement. The other six destinations are listed. Scope requests are accepted. A named lawyer is not promised as standing by today.

Single matter or retainer?

A first NDA, a first distribution appointment, or one employment contract is usually a single matter. MSA programs, channel nets, and rolling DPA updates usually belong on an annual counsel module — still not unlimited advice, and still not your law firm.

Do you draft or sign the contracts?

No. Orbid does not draft or sign as counsel. Local licensed professionals review. You approve the pack before work and fees start.
