Ive worked on building the platform and validating the idea. He's been getting an audience engaged. I want to do an equity split soon but dont know how much I want to give but want him to be as involved as possible!
If you’re early and there are two of you do 51/49 so you can break a tie before investors get involved. Don’t forget the standard 4 year vesting with 1 year cliff for both of you. There is so much non tech stuff to do in a startup you really want them all in as soon as possible. This should all be part of a proper operating agreement document and the sooner the better.
