Hello!
Is it possible to send an NDA via upwork to a freelancer before hiring them? It's regarding, design, api's etc. to make a good estimation for the proposal I am about to receive.

Thanks for the question, Martin! Terms regarding Intellectual Property are included under the Optional Service Contract Terms of the User Agreement. Unless users agree to any different terms, they agree to the Optional Service Contract Terms.
Non-Disclosure Agreement language is included in Upwork TOS to protect both Clients and Freelancers. That said, you are also free to request that a freelancer sign an additional NDA outside of the Upwork website.
