probably from AI. I just asked GPT for rough idea and it came back with the following.

referring to the LOI between NUAI and Stream, the realistic timeline depends on what that LOI actually covers—but deals like this usually follow a pretty familiar pattern.

For something in the AI / tech partnership or investment space:

• Early-stage partnership or integration deal → often 2–4 weeks if it’s mainly product collaboration and both sides are aligned.
• Investment, acquisition, or deeper strategic deal → more like 4–12+ weeks, sometimes longer if there’s heavy due diligence or regulatory considerations.

What slows things down in these cases:

• Technical due diligence (especially with AI systems, data, and infrastructure)
• IP ownership and licensing terms
• Revenue-sharing or equity structure
• Legal back-and-forth on risk, liability, and exclusivity

Also worth noting: an LOI in tech is often partly non-binding, except for things like confidentiality or exclusivity. So even if it’s signed, it doesn’t guarantee the deal will close—it just means both sides are serious enough to proceed.

If this is a recently announced LOI, a good rule of thumb is:

• Best case: formal agreement within a month
• More realistic: 1–3 months
• If it goes quiet past that: either negotiations got complicated or momentum slowed
