About this Gig
Cofounders move fastuntil expectations collide. I will write a Cofounder Agreement that documents how ownership and control actually work: equity split rationale, decision rights, vesting, exits, and what happens if someone leaves.
This gig focuses on building a clean structure that investors recognize and that founders can live with. Topics can include: equity allocation, vesting schedule/cliff, founder duties and time commitment, cash vs sweat equity treatment, IP assignment, confidentiality, voting/consent items, deadlock handling, transfer restrictions, founder removal/resignation, dispute resolution, and practical governance terms.
Deliverables: an editable agreement (Word) + PDF. If youre still deciding the split, I can propose common approaches and tradeoffs based on contribution, risk, and future fundraising.
