Slicing Pie with Notion
A comprehensive Notion template for implementing the Slicing Pie dynamic equity sharing model in early-stage startups. Tracks contributions, calculates equity splits, and manages team member data automatically.
About This Project
A professionally designed Notion template that implements the Slicing Pie method - a dynamic equity sharing model developed by Chicago economics professor Mike Moyer for early-stage startups to distribute equity fairly.
The template features: • Dynamic Equity Tracking: Automatically calculates each team member's percentage share based on their actual contributions • Contribution Categories: Tracks time, money, ideas, relationships, and resources with appropriate multipliers • Real-time Calculations: Converts all contributions into normalized 'Slices' with live equity percentage updates • Team Member Management: Comprehensive profiles with role definitions and departure protocols • Transparency Dashboard: Visual representation of everyone's contributions and current equity stakes • Built-in Formulas: Implements the core Slicing Pie formula (Individual's % = Individual's Slices ÷ Total Slices)
This template solves the common problem of unfair equity splits that cause 65% of startup failures due to co-founder disputes. It's designed for bootstrapped startups and applies until the company reaches break-even or secures major funding, at which point the equity split 'freezes'.
Perfect for startup teams who want to maintain fairness and transparency while avoiding the conflicts that arise from traditional fixed equity splits based on guesswork.
