No affordable answer layer for startup legal/equity questions
Pain point
Founders with narrow corporate questions (share surrender, cap table, vesting, investor rights) get told "get a lawyer / go to a legal sub" — there's no cheap middle option between a Reddit guess and a $500 consult.
Signal
Moderate, and **recurs across three independent threads**: share surrender (3), trademark opposition (7), and the investor-lawsuit thread (74 upvotes — by far the highest engagement here, driven by legal/governance drama). Repetition across threads is the real signal, not the vote counts.
Opportunity
Flat-fee async legal Q&A for founders: $99/question, answered in 24h by a vetted startup attorney, with an AI first-pass trained on YC/NVCA standard docs and a public library of previously answered questions (which becomes SEO/content moat). Feasibility: **medium** — product is easy, supply of attorneys and UPL/liability boundaries are the hard parts.
