Cofounder vesting schedule for young startup
alain94040: No cliff for founders. Reverse vesting (you own your shares upfront). Presumably, you have been vesting already for a few months, so you are ahead. I would also recommend at most 51/59 split, not 50/50. You need a way to resolve deadlocks.By the way, consider using my online cofounders agreement before you incorporate (http://fairsoftware.net), so you can keep working on your project longer before seeing a lawyer (not that I'm advising you not to see a lawyer :-)The system we use is monthly vesting over 4 years, no cliff. I think that's the only fair thing to do with founders.
