📜 What is a Co-Founder Agreement & Why You Need It:

A Co-Founder Agreement is like a pre-nup for your business. It clearly defines:
🔹 Ownership & equity split
🔹 Roles & responsibilities
🔹 Decision-making authority
🔹 Exit clauses & buyouts
🔹 IP ownership
🔹 Vesting schedules
🔹 Dispute resolution clause (for those “it’s not you, it’s me” moments)

🔐 Why It’s Crucial (Even for Best Friends!):
✅ Avoids ambiguity & misunderstandings
✅ Protects your contributions (IP, time, money)
✅ Prevents “ghosting” by co-founders
✅ Ensures smooth onboarding of future investors

⚠️ Real Talk:
Startups don’t fail because of bad ideas—they fail due to co-founder conflicts. A clear agreement helps you handle the “messy middle” like pros. 👨‍⚖️📄
