Purple shows what you own. Green shows what you've earned based on contributions.
What the numbers mean
What you can do about it
It's not too late to switch to dynamic equity
If your split is already off, you don't have to stay locked into it. With contribution-based ownership, your current split becomes the starting point and future contributions adjust it automatically. No more guessing, no more resentment.
This actually works better when you're already in motion — you have real data about who's doing what, which makes the transition easier to justify to everyone involved.
How to use these results
These numbers give you a starting point for a conversation, not an ultimatum. The goal isn't to win an argument — it's to get both partners looking at the same data.
Send the link, don't spring the numbers. Share this scenario with your partner before you sit down to talk. Let them see the data on their own terms instead of being ambushed.
Lead with the problem, not the blame. Say "our contributions have gotten out of balance" — not "you're not doing your share." The calculator shows the gap. You don't need to be the one pointing fingers.
Present options, not ultimatums. Restructure the split, adjust profit sharing, move to contribution tracking, or agree on specific changes with a check-in date.

Starting the conversation is the hardest part. Share this link so your partner can see the same numbers before you sit down to talk.
Track contributions automatically
Instead of guessing who's doing what, Equity Matrix tracks contributions weekly and adjusts ownership proportionally. No spreadsheets, no arguments — just math.
When your partnership split stops being fair
Most partnerships start with a handshake and an equal split. Then reality sets in.
The drift is predictable
One partner takes on more clients. The other picks up a side project. Six months later, the person doing 80% of the work still owns 50%. This is the most common reason business partnerships fail.
The conversation nobody wants to have
Bringing up an imbalanced split feels like an accusation. That's why most partners avoid it until the resentment is toxic. This calculator gives you data to start the conversation without pointing fingers.
How to restructure ownership in an LLC
LLC ownership percentages can be amended in your operating agreement. You can change the ownership split, adjust profit distributions, or move to a contribution-based model. Any restructuring should involve an attorney and tax advisor.
Contribution-based ownership
Instead of arguing about percentages, dynamic equity tracks what each partner actually contributes and adjusts ownership proportionally. If someone works less, their share decreases. If they step up, it increases. See how it works.
