Frequently asked questions
How Aria works, how your data is handled, and what the jurisdiction features do.
What is Aria?
Aria is an automated contract-negotiation platform. You set your priorities and boundaries in a private playbook, and two AI agents negotiate a professionally drafted, jurisdiction-specific agreement within those boundaries. Aria is a commercial negotiation tool — not a lawyer or a law firm.
How is my data handled?
Each negotiation runs in isolation: your private playbook and internal boundaries are never shared with the other party — only the agreed, converged outcomes are. Your data is never used to train AI models. Documents and records are retained as described in our Privacy Policy.
What do the jurisdiction features do?
For the governing law you select, Aria applies jurisdiction-aware flagging and informational checks — it surfaces issues and incorporates jurisdiction-specific clauses into the draft for your review. These are informational only; they do not constitute legal advice, a legal review, or certify compliance with local statutes. The final document reflects the commercial positions the parties agree. See Supported Jurisdictions.
Is the output legally binding?
The output is a proposed agreement document. It becomes legally binding only when both parties sign it — Aria produces the draft; you decide whether to sign.
Do I need a lawyer?
Aria is not a substitute for legal advice. For significant or high-value agreements, we recommend a qualified lawyer review the final version before signing.
How long does a negotiation take?
A typical run settles in minutes (about 5–30). You can close the tab and come back — your agreement is waiting in your dashboard when it's done.
