Fundraising templates & founder checklists.
The four working files every founder reaches for when they start raising — and most people cobble together badly the first time. A pitch deck that says the right thing on every slide, a cap table that survives a real funding round, a checklist so a term sheet can’t catch you out, and a founders’ agreement that settles equity and vesting before it becomes a fight. Researched, plain-English, and free.
- A slide-by-slide pitch deck template — exactly what each of the 12 slides has to say
- A cap-table sheet that tracks founder equity, the ESOP pool and dilution round by round
- A term-sheet checklist — every economic and control term to check before you sign
- A founders’ agreement boilerplate — equity split, vesting, roles, IP and leaver clauses
