Standard Draft

Est. 2022 HQ Santa Monica, CA Employees 1-10 Updated 2026-03-19
What it is

Standard Draft is in private beta (as of early 2026) and unfunded at pre-seed stage. It is a contract platform (Santa Monica, founded 2022) that combines standardized, neutral contract forms with a two-sided drafting and negotiation interface. The differentiator is the neutral-baseline approach: rather than one party’s paper being the starting point, both parties negotiate from a standardized, mutually acceptable form — philosophically distinct from traditional CLM where one party controls the template. Users configure terms through structured workflows rather than Track Changes redlining. Described by an early user as ‘like the YC SAFE meets TurboTax.’ Claims AI-powered contract creation (specifics unverified — model, function, and failure modes unknown). Target audience per Def Guide to LegalTech is in-house legal teams. Does not appear in any industry CLM comparison lists or contract software roundups as of March 2026 — consistent with pre-market status. Practitioners should verify current availability before evaluation.
