ESSOR
ESSOR provides a living governance layer for VC-backed startups, transforming static founder agreements into operational systems. It ensures fast, compliant decision-making during normal operations and actively protects the company during founder conflicts or inactivity. By automating governance processes, ESSOR helps startups avoid the paralysis caused by disputes, which account for 65% of startup failures. Its platform enables rapid SHA setup, manages board resolutions, and anchors governance rules to the cap table. In times of conflict, ESSOR activates "Safe Mode," preventing asset hostage-taking and building a clean legal fact-base for resolution, ensuring business continuity and safeguarding investor interests.
