Framework v0-pre-alpha
Close enough to be trusted. Fair enough to be accepted.
An experimental allocation framework for early-stage startups. Instead of guessing ownership splits upfront, it tracks actual contributions as they happen and adjusts ownership accordingly.
How it works
Define short-term blocks
Set milestones you can actually see (4-12 weeks)
Weight by risk and stage
Early work gets higher multiples (5×→4×→3×→2×→1×)
Allocate by actual contribution
Split each block based on who does what
Accept and mint
Acceptance mints the approved allocation and marks the block MINTED
What the ledger records
Fairly Exact opens short Contribution blocks, evaluates delivered work, and mints accepted units into a member ledger. The sizing formula uses a contractor-equivalent scope proxy and does not require a company valuation. Funding and Advisor blocks connect to separate instruments. At finalization, the member ledger freezes into path-neutral percentages before a fixed-LLC or corporate-conversion path is professionally executed.
Getting started guidePre-alpha educational framework. Not legal, tax, accounting, investment, employment, or financial advice. Fairly Exact v0 assumes an LLC-based implementation, but governing documents, interest design, tax treatment, filings, and compliance must be determined by qualified professionals before use.
