FAQ
Why do founders need to "purchase" their stock?
Paying a nominal par value for stock establishes clear legal ownership and separates the founder from the corporate entity, protecting personal assets.
Can you include a vesting schedule?
Absolutely. The Standard and Premium tiers include detailed vesting schedules to protect the company if a founder leaves early.
Does this include Intellectual Property (IP) assignment?
The Premium package includes a full IP Assignment Agreement, ensuring the company owns all work created by the founders.
