Contribution-weighted founder equity register
A founder equity register as structured JSON: each founder with role, commitment level, weighted contribution factors, and allocated equity %, plus a reserved future-hire pool, with all percentages summing to 100% and part-time founders held inside a minority band.
You receive: A JSON object { founders[], reserved_pool_pct, total_allocated_pct } where each founder has {name, role, commitment, contribution_factors{}, equity_pct} validated for sum-to-100, reserved-pool floor, and the part-time minority cap.

- Method note
- Contribution-weighted split for STUD, a registered trade name of TELEVORT INC, a Delaware corporation (pre-seed, pre-revenue soft launch). The percentages here are an illustrative contribution-weighted allocation for the register's method, not the corporation's filed cap table. Each founder is scored 0 to 10 on the four required factors (ip, capital, execution, risk). Raw weight = factor sum; equity is the weight share of the 90% allocated after the 10% future-hire pool, then any part-time or advisory founder is capped into the 2% to 8% minority band and the remainder reverts to full-time founders. Capital is scored 0 across the board: no founder capital contribution is committed, so none is credited. The advisory seat is an illustrative scenario (no such person has joined STUD); it is included so the band rule is exercised the way a second seat would be.
- Reserved pool pct
- 10
- Total allocated pct
- 90
- Reserved pool note
- 10% reserved for future key hires (the pool floor), held unallocated so the first engineering or growth hire can be made without renegotiating founder splits.

- Basis
- Raw weight 28 of 32 (78.75% raw share of the 90% allocated); receives the 7.25 points released by the advisory band cap because full-time execution and risk carry the venture.

- Basis
- Raw weight 4 of 32 would imply 11.25% of the allocated 90%, above the 8% advisory ceiling; capped to 4.0%, the band midpoint, reflecting counsel without ongoing execution or risk.

Scope of the check
What's verified: Verifies the cap table sums to 100%, reserves the required future-hire pool, holds part-time/advisory founders inside the minority band, and scores every founder on the required contribution factors. Does NOT judge whether the equity split is fair, whether the contribution scores are accurate, or whether investors will actually accept the arrangement.
