Introducing stage-aware term sheet analysis for founders
Founders reading term sheets don't need legal jargon. They need clarity, risk awareness, and confidence going into negotiations.
That's why Pitchkit's term sheet analyzer now does more than extract clauses. It understands context, stage, and impact.
What's new
Founder-first analysis Instead of just parsing terms, the analyzer now explains what they mean for you in plain English. You'll see why something is good, neutral, or risky, and how it could impact your ownership, control, or exit outcome.
Stage-aware scoring A term that might be fine at Series A could be dangerous at pre-seed. We now tailor risk scoring to your funding round:
- Angel
- Pre-seed
- Seed
- Series A
Each clause is assessed in light of what's standard — and what's overreaching — at your current stage.
Impact per clause Not all risks are equal. Each clause now includes a clear impact level:
- Low = minor reporting burdens or legal hygiene
- Moderate = control or dilution that can be negotiated
- High = terms that change your outcome at exit or harm your next round
Actionable negotiation advice For every flagged issue, you'll see a plain-language recommendation. Some come with copy-paste counter-language you can actually use.
Why it matters
Too many founders sign early term sheets without understanding what they're giving up. Even one clause — like full ratchet anti-dilution or a drag-along with low thresholds — can dramatically change your exit.
With Pitchkit, you don't just see what's in your term sheet. You see:
- What's missing but should be there
- What's standard vs. aggressive
- What's fixable before you sign
