Zuva

Zuva is a contract intelligence company founded by Noah Waisberg and Alexander Hudek, the team behind Kira Systems, who retained the underlying Kira AI when Litera acquired Kira in 2021. Zuva applies that technology to sell-side M&A diligence and to self-serve contract analysis products for corporate legal teams and software developers.

Key features of Zuva include:

• Zuva API: Exposes contract extraction and document classification as a developer API so legal technology vendors and corporate teams can embed contract AI directly in their own workflows.
• Pre-Trained Field Library: Provides more than 1,400 built-in provision fields covering change-of-control, assignment, non-compete, indemnity, and IP terms with no model training required.
• Zuva Analyze: Gives in-house legal teams a self-serve contract review interface with subscription or per-project pricing, avoiding a long enterprise procurement and rollout cycle.
• Zuva Create: Lets teams train custom extraction fields on their own document examples when a clause type is specific to their contracts, industry, or playbook.
• Sell-Side Diligence Reviews: Combines AI contract screening with review by former large-firm lawyers to prepare disclosure schedules and surface issues before buyers run their own diligence.

Best for: In-house legal teams, corporate development groups, and legal technology developers that need contract data extraction for M&A diligence or embedded contract intelligence.

Zuva makes M&A-grade contract AI available without building extraction models from scratch, shortening diligence timelines and reducing the volume of routine contract review sent out to law firms.
