Hey I am on Medial • 1y

I am planning to create a large esops pool for my startup of around 20% and give my co-founder (tech) around 35% equity over a three-year vesting period. In this case, if I raised capital at 10% dilution in a pre-seed or seed round, I may end up with less than 40% in the beginning. Is this a good amount of equity to get a grip on my company's early days because I am treating it like a child and do not want anyone to ruin it.
