Sweat Equity
We build with you, not just for you.
Sweat equity partnerships let you pay for high-impact consulting work with shares instead of scarce cash.
Onepropeller invests senior product, design and engineering muscle into your roadmap in exchange for a minority stake, so you keep runway while gaining execution fire-power. Our model ties our upside to yours, creating a true build-together mindset that accelerates milestones, sharpens strategy and boosts investor confidence.
What do we offer?
Set the Terms
We agree on a simple swap: a fixed amount of expert work for a small slice of equity.
Build & Ship
Our product, design and engineering leads join your team and deliver the milestones you need most.
Show the Results
Short, clear progress notes connect our work to the metrics investors watch.
Fit the Fund-raise
We time and structure the deal so it supports—never complicates—your next funding round.
Plan the Exit
Straightforward buy-back or sale clauses cover what happens when you scale or exit.
Why does it matter?
Early-stage companies often face talent gaps yet must preserve cash. A sweat-equity partnership unlocks seasoned specialists without bloating burn, while signalling external validation to investors. Because Onepropeller’s return is tied to equity value, incentives stay aligned long after an invoice would have been paid, driving disciplined execution and shared focus on sustainable growth. Founders gain bandwidth and credibility; investors see reduced delivery risk and a stronger, more investable story.
