For friends and family building a business together
Build the business. Protect the relationship.
Most partnerships come apart over expectations nobody ever wrote down. staypartners.io walks each of you through the same questions, shows you where you line up and where you don't, and helps you settle on one answer you both accept.
Whether you're thinking about going into business together or you've been partners for years and want it on firmer ground.
Answer in your own words
One question at a time, however you'd actually say it. Jump to whatever matters most to you — you don't have to go in order.
Bring what you have
Already have an agreement, a term sheet, or a page of notes? Import it and your answers are filled in for you to edit.
Agree on one answer
Once you've both answered a question, you see each other's answers side by side, plus a suggested wording you can both accept — or edit until you can.
Answer honestly, without anchoring
Nothing you write is shared until you have both answered that question. You can see that your partner has answered — never what they said — so neither of you writes a reply to the other. Once you've both answered, you see each other's answers in full.
When this isn't the right tool
staypartners.io is for partners who want to work well together. If you're already in a dispute, or one of you is trying to get out, you need an attorney, not this.
Ready when you are
Start on your own, invite your partner when you're ready, and work through it at whatever pace suits you.
