Formation and Purpose

You've been talking about this idea for weeks, maybe months. Now you're sitting with your cofounder, naming the company, buying the domain, imagining what it could become. Coffee in hand, takeout on the table. Creating a cofounder agreement is what makes it real. Let's get started.

Make sure it's good, your company might go big one day.
What's your company's name?
This defines how your company is structured for ownership, taxes, and decision-making. If you plan to raise venture capital, a C-Corp is usually preferred.
What is your company's current or intended legal structure?
Delaware is a popular choice for many startups because its laws and courts are well established. Just be aware you may have additional fees or filings if your business is based elsewhere.
