A Founders Agreement is a foundational legal document that outlines the roles, responsibilities, and equity ownership of each co-founder in a startup. It is designed to prevent future disputes by clearly defining how decisions are made, how equity vests over time, and what happens if a founder decides to leave the company. By establishing these rules early, founders protect the long-term stability of their business and ensure that all intellectual property is correctly assigned to the entity. This document is essential for any multi-founder team before significant capital is raised or products are launched, providing a roadmap for corporate governance and conflict resolution.
