What is the best token vesting schedule for seed investors?

[Nicholas35]

I work with clients and team members across 5 different time zones and scheduling meetings is constantly causing confusion. Basic calendar apps don't handle the complexity well. What meeting scheduling software have you found that actually makes scheduling across multiple time zones painless? I need something that shows availability clearly and handles daylight saving time changes automatically.

For multiple time zones, Calendly has been our go-to meeting scheduling software. It automatically shows availability in each participant's local time zone and handles daylight saving time changes seamlessly. The group scheduling feature is perfect for finding times when multiple people across different zones are available.

We use Microsoft Bookings with Teams integration. It's part of Office 365, so there's no extra cost, and it handles time zone conversions automatically. What I appreciate is that it checks everyone's calendar availability and prevents double booking. The customization options for buffer times between meetings have reduced scheduling stress significantly.

I manage scheduling across five time zones and use SavvyCal. The interactive scheduling feature is brilliant - people can see my availability and suggest times that work for them. The time zone handling is seamless, and it integrates with Google Calendar, Outlook, and iCloud. The reduction in scheduling back-and-forth emails has been dramatic.

I'm trying to finalize the tokenomics for a new project and keep hitting a wall on how to properly structure the initial distribution. My main worry is that our planned vesting schedule for the team and advisors might still look too aggressive to potential investors during the seed round, even though we think it's fair for the four-year development timeline we've committed to.

[KennethZR]

We went with a 4 year vesting for the team with a 1 year cliff and monthly vesting after that. In seed meetings some investors still blink at the pace and ask if we can justify four years when the product is still a year or two out.

Advisors got a smaller slice and a two year vesting with a six month cliff; investors kept pushing on long term alignment and whether milestones were truly safe.

I tried to map the cap table and run some numbers, and it started to feel like the problem is more about stage messaging than the actual vesting schedule.

One afternoon I did a quick burn and runway check with the vesting baked in, and it made me anxious about how long we can operate if fundraising slows down.

[Tyler30]

Maybe the four year timeline is the real issue, not the cliff itself; if we can show meaningful milestones at year one, two, three, it might help.

We did open a line of dialogue with potential seed funds early to hear what they would want to feel comfortable, and got a mix of responses.
