Problem Statement
Figuring out equity and compensation early on is a challenging and frustrating process for early-stage teams. Fixed early agreements, which often lack the flexibility to adapt to real contributions over time, frequently result in unfair setups that lead to core team conflicts. This misalignment wastes significant energy as teams struggle to resolve these issues later, or worse, causes the core team to fall apart. The lack of fair and dynamic compensation systems also contributes to disengaged contributors and reduced motivation, undermining the success of the team.
