How it works
How cofounders settle equity, roles and exits.
You each answer privately, so neither of you shapes the other's answers. Then you settle every mismatch and both sign your Blueprint.
Four steps from first answer to signed Blueprint.
Answer privately.
Each of you answers two short sets of questions, free. One covers how you work together. The other covers roles, equity, decisions and direction.
See every mismatch.
We list every question where your answers differ, including the ones you never talked about.
Settle and sign your Blueprint.
You agree each mismatch and both sign your Blueprint. It is one document covering equity, roles, who decides what, and what happens if someone leaves.
Keep it current.
When the company changes, reopen your Blueprint and update it together.
What the questions ask about.
How much you can give
How much time and energy each of you has right now, and what happens to your judgment when you run low.
How you get along
How each of you reacts to stress, handles a disagreement and likes to work day to day.
How you run the company
Who owns which role, how equity is split and earned, who makes which calls, and what happens if one of you leaves.
Keep what you agreed in front of you.
All of these are free.

Commitments

Compass

The Pulse

Conflict Session
