SAFE-stage ownership percentages have been normalized to mathematically clean totals based on the share counts in the uploaded cap table model.
Initial Formation Structure
The formation model begins with 8,000,000 founder shares allocated to Kurt Hilgart and 2,000,000 shares reserved for the option pool. This establishes an initial ownership framework of 80.00% founder ownership and 20.00% unissued option pool capacity.
SAFE Financing Model
The pro forma model includes a SAFE round of $500,000 at a $7,000,000 valuation cap. After normalizing the share-based ownership percentages, the SAFE stage reflects continued founder control while introducing early outside capital participation.
Seed Financing Model
The financing assumptions also include a $1,000,000 seed round at an $8,000,000 valuation assumption. This stage shows a more developed ownership profile with investor participation and a resized option pool.
Post $3M Capital Scenario
The long-range cap table scenario models $3,000,000 raised in total, resulting in a more mature capitalization structure while maintaining founder alignment and an available pool for future talent and incentive planning.
Capital Strategy
This staged capitalization approach is designed to support disciplined fundraising while preserving founder-led direction and future flexibility. The structure demonstrates a path from formation through early external capital while maintaining room for investor participation, strategic hiring, and formal equity planning as the company advances.
