Most people sign and leave $20,000+ on the table. The severance multiple is the floor. The release language buries clauses you'll regret. We find them in 24 hours for $199.
You have 21 days to sign. 45 if you're over 40. HR is hoping you don't read it carefully, and that you don't know what's negotiable.
The severance number they wrote is a starting point. Equity acceleration, healthcare bridge, non-disparagement scope, reference language, the release waiver, any tacked-on non-compete: all of it can move. If you know what to ask for.
We've read every kind of severance HR sends out. We know what's market, what's punitive, and what to send back. In 24 hours you'll have a counter that actually moves the number.
Three of the issues we routinely find. Your report will include 8 to 15 like these, ranked by dollar impact.
What it means: For a Director with 7 years of tenure at a Series C company, market is 2 weeks per year of service. That's 14 weeks, not 4.
Counter: 12 weeks base plus 3 months of accelerated RSU vesting. Cite peer practice at Series B to D companies.
What it means: This release is broader than allowed in most states. SEC whistleblower protections, Sarbanes-Oxley claims, and unemployment eligibility cannot be waived.
Counter: Add a carve-out: "Nothing in this release waives Employee's right to file a charge with the SEC, EEOC, or NLRB, or to receive a whistleblower award."
What it means: You're agreeing not to disparage them. They have no equivalent obligation. Standard practice in clean exits is mutual.
Counter: Request mirror language: "Company executives and HR shall not make disparaging statements about Employee to references, third parties, or in writing."

Our severance model was trained on thousands of real severance agreements written by employment attorneys at top US firms. ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude were trained on the open internet. The difference shows up the moment you compare outputs.
We don't just flag your severance multiple. We tell you what's market for your role, tenure, company stage, and state. Same goes for equity acceleration, healthcare bridge length, and non-disparagement scope. You arrive at the negotiation with numbers.
Every review is checked by a human before it leaves our system. When the AI is uncertain, we flag it. When your situation needs a licensed attorney, we say so and refer you.
If we miss a material issue that your attorney catches, full refund. No friction, no questions. We're early. Every document you send sharpens the system, and we'd rather refund and learn than fight you on it.
