I have experience with this, gotta say: how equity should be distributed depends on a few factors. anyway gather the data first, don't make emotional decisions.
another perspective: maybe the real issue with how equity should be distributed is something else. thhink about it...

But what's the real risk? If this choice is wrong, will the business shut down? I'm saying this so you're super careful.

Correction: I misremembered the figure, it was a bit lower.

Generally correct, but one part is missing. Most time waste accumulates in tasks waiting for approval.
Of course, it varies if your situation is different.

My question might sound amateurish sorry about that. If youre offering equity instead of salary, also state what youre offering in return.
Good luck with that.

There are three things to check when doing this. Solutions that work at a small scale collapse when you grow; I learned this late.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
I agree with this. Just because everyone does it doesn't mean it's right.
This is my opinion, I'm not claiming it's absolute truth.
We experienced almost the exact same thing last year. The real issue isn't the number, but what it's based on.

I agree and I'd like to emphasize that. When making a decision, first look at what data you have on hand.
Start with a small trial; don't commit to everything at once. I'm also curious if anyone does it differently.

My perspective changed after experiencing that. Processes without records never improve because you don't know what to fix.
Proven by experience.
