Shared Success
Made Simple

Connect with Founders, Talent, and Funders who are open to Shared Success Agreements. Discover opportunities and build relationships where everyone shares in the upside as businesses grow.

A Smarter Way to Collaborate

Invest Time or Capital

Provide skills or funding to ventures you believe in. With Shared Success Agreements, a contribution today earns a share of tomorrow's growth.

Agree on Simple Terms

Decide on your contribution, the multiple, and revenue %. No equity dilution, cap tables, or complex legal docs - just clear, fair agreements.

Earn As They Grow

Get paid based on real revenue - not a distant exit. Shared Success Agreements let you start earning as the business scales.

Success, for Everyone

Founders, talent, and funders can all participate. No gatekeepers, no investor status required - just shared effort and shared upside.
