Free Startup Tools: How Does Your Term Sheet Compare To The Standards?

Term Sheet Gavel_thumb[3]At some point in the game, every entrepreneur and startup founder becomes familiar with the term sheet. But "familiarity" can be a tricky qualifier.

What's more, there's the legalese and the anxiety that VCs might sneak in some tricky terms -- which all work towards making the process a confusing pain in the ass.
