Does this tool support the S-Corp-specific rules and considerations (i.e. flow-through of profits and associated taxes, proportionate distributions, etc?) Or am I on the wrong track? If any S-Corps have used it, please share your experiences!

    I’m not a lawyer,but I don’t know if this is applicable to my startup where 3 kids are my co-founders, and I’m planning to take another 3 to be my co-founders to provide me some help in technology, financing and running my virtual startup company

      Hi Fernando,

      Based on what you described, Slicing Pie is 100% applicable to your situation UNLESS, you are planning on simply paying your co-founders their full fair market salary out of your own pocket in which case you would keep 100%.

      If you expect the co-founders to work without salary in exchange for equity Slicing Pie will make sure they each get what they deserve.

      -Mike
