Financial Structuring
Cap tables and term sheets, decoded.

Cap-table modelling, ESOP design, term-sheet review, and round structuring. We sit on your side of the table when the lawyers and VCs are on theirs.

Why this matters

The real problem we're solving.

Term sheets are dense, optimised for the investor, and full of clauses that look harmless but compound badly across rounds. Liquidation preferences, anti-dilution mechanics, drag-along rights — small wording differences become large outcome differences.

We've worked through hundreds of term sheets. We know what's standard, what's aggressive, and what's worth pushing back on.

If you have a term sheet in hand, we can review it in 48 hours. If you're structuring an entire round, we can architect it from the ground up.
