Comprehensive Analysis

Eight critical areas, analyzed end-to-end.

Comprehensive 47-point evaluation that surfaces critical issues before they surface in court. Every clause gets a severity score with actionable mitigation guidance.

  • Comprehensive 47-point evaluation
  • Critical issue flagging
  • Severity scoring
  • Mitigation recommendations

Detailed breakdown of equity splits, vesting schedules, and cliff periods. Identify potential imbalances and flag issues before they become problems.

  • Founder equity percentages
  • Vesting timeline analysis
  • Acceleration clauses
  • Buyback provisions

Verify IP ownership is unambiguous from day one. Surface missing assignment clauses and prior invention disclosures that could complicate future fundraising.

  • IP ownership clarity
  • Assignment verification

Model what happens at acquisition, IPO, or founder departure. Know your rights before a term sheet forces you to negotiate under pressure.

  • Acquisition provisions
  • Tag-along rights
  • Drag-along clauses
  • Liquidity preferences

Deadlock and dispute mechanics are the most overlooked section of any co-founder agreement. We make sure yours actually works when you need it.

  • Deadlock provisions
  • Mediation requirements
  • Arbitration clauses
  • Buyout mechanisms

Standard 4-year / 1-year cliff is just the starting point. We analyze acceleration triggers, departure scenarios, and whether your schedule aligns with investor expectations.

  • Vesting schedules
  • Cliff periods
  • Acceleration triggers
  • Departure scenarios

Ambiguous authority is the #1 cause of founder conflict. We surface gaps in decision-making authority before they paralyze your company.

  • Decision-making authority
  • Title clarity
  • Duty allocation
  • Time commitments

Capital contributions, expense policies, and compensation structures are often left vague. We identify every financial obligation that needs explicit terms.
