The big idea
If you take a job with stock as part of pay, there's usually a 1-year cliff before any of it is yours. AI can show you what quitting one day early costs.
How to use it
- Ask AI to explain a 4-year vest with 1-year cliff
- Ask AI to math out what 1 day early vs 1 day late costs
- Ask AI to compare RSUs to options in plain English
- Ask AI to flag what 'double-trigger' vesting means
Try it
If you have or will have stock comp, ask AI to model your vest schedule and circle the cliff date in your calendar.
