What one missed term costs, computed

The front page follows one founder through six financing events. Run it again with one change: the $500,000 SAFE signed at a $4M cap instead of $8M, because nobody had explained what a cap does.

Computed by the dilution simulator at build time, from the same scenario the front page prints. Reproduce it in the SAFE Simulator and the Dilution Simulator inside the app.

What it looks like inside

Three screens from the product as it ships, not mockups.

  • The journey page: five stages on a vertical datum line, the third stage marked as the founder's current one, with lessons read counted per strand.
    The journey. Five stages, your position marked, nothing locked.
  • A lesson on SAFEs, five sections in, with a map of all thirteen sections beside it showing which are read and which are ahead.

  • The SAFE simulator with a $500,000 SAFE at a $5M cap and a $12M priced round entered, showing founders at 72%, the SAFE at 8% and the new investor at 20% after conversion.

There is no free tier, and here is why

Everything is paid: the lessons, the calculators, the decision wizards, the glossary and the review system. None of it is carved off as a sample, because the parts are worth much less separately than together.

What is public instead is the evidence. The full syllabus lists every module and lesson with nothing held back. The front page prints a figure this product computed and a glossary entry in full, so you can judge the arithmetic and the writing before you decide.

How the 12 months of updates work

Your purchase includes every lesson and revision published in the 12 months after you buy. When that window closes, nothing is removed and nothing stops working. You keep everything you have, permanently, and there is no renewal to decline.
