What is in the Founder / Startup Team template?
Last updated:
The Founder / Startup Team template creates a project with 4 workstreams: Company Setup, Product Development, Fundraising and Marketing & GTM. Each workstream has its own stages: Company Setup, for example, runs To Do → In Progress → Done. Built for founders and early-stage teams, and every stage can be renamed, removed or given rules once you're in.

Change any stage once you are in
Rename a stage, add a new one, or change its type. Add entry conditions, like a due date before review, and require an approval before work moves into a stage.
