Most cofounder breakups trace back to conversations that never happened. Twelve questions, four dimensions, ten minutes. Take it solo, then compare codes with your cofounder and see exactly what to talk about first.
Answer honestly, not aspirationally. There are no right answers here, only mismatches you want to find on a quiz instead of in year two. Wherever in the world you are building, these four conversations are universal.
Vision & ambition
How big, how fast, and what would you sell for.
Money & equity
Splits, salaries and appetite for outside capital.
Roles & decisions
Who owns what, and who decides in a deadlock.
Pressure & conflict
How you fight, give feedback and absorb failure.

That code does not look right. It should be TSH1- followed by 12 digits from 0 to 3.
Compare two codes
One of those codes does not look right. Each should be TSH1- followed by 12 digits from 0 to 3.

Alignment is not sameness. Differences are healthy when you know they exist; this shows you where they live.

Talk about these first
When you have talked it through, put it in writing while it is easy: the founders agreement template covers equity, vesting, roles and exits, and a volunteer lawyer from the Starter Boost can sanity-check it at no cost.
Found your person? Make it official, properly.
Founders agreement template, volunteer legal review through the Starter Boost, and a community that has seen every cofounder mistake before you make it. Founders never pay to be here.
This quiz is a conversation starter, not a verdict on any partnership, and it is not legal or professional advice. Your answers never leave this page; the code exists so two humans can compare notes.
