Stay Partners FAQ: privacy, cost, access — Stay Partners

Question 1

What does my partner see, and when?

Accepted Answer

Nothing, until you've both answered the same question. Then you both see both answers side by side, with a plain-language read of where you agree and where you differ.

Question 2

Who else can see my answers?

Accepted Answer

By default, a small Stay Partners team can see your partnership's answers so we can help and guide you. Any partner can turn that off for the whole partnership in the partnership's settings, and turn it back on any time.

Question 3

What do you store, and who can see it?

Accepted Answer

We store your account details, your answers, notes, anything you upload or forward, and the shared wording you agree on. Your partner sees an answer only after you've both answered that question; your private notes are never shared automatically. Uploaded files are read in your browser, and only the text reaches us. A small Stay Partners team can see answers to help and guide you, and AI processing is not used to train public models. Details are in our Privacy Policy.

Question 4

Is this legal advice?

Accepted Answer

No. Stay Partners helps partners reach a shared understanding. It isn't a law firm and doesn't create an attorney–client relationship. If you're in a dispute or working through an exit, talk to an attorney.

Question 5

We've already signed an agreement. Is this still for us?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Plenty of partners signed something years ago and have never checked it against how they actually work. You can upload what you have and see where you still agree.

Question 6

How long does it take? Can we stop and pick it up later?

Accepted Answer

Start with the core questions — many people get through a topic in a few minutes. Everything saves as you go, so stop whenever you like and come back on any device.

Question 7

What does it cost?

Accepted Answer

Answering every section and comparing side by side is free. The Partnership MOU plan, which adds the questions nobody thought to ask, guided help and the shared MOU, is $798 a year for two partners. Checkout opens soon.

Question 8

Can I upload a document we already have?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Share an operating agreement, notes, or anything else you've written, and we'll pick out what it already answers for you to confirm.

Question 9

Why not just use a template?

Accepted Answer

A template gives you blanks to fill in. It doesn't ask each of you separately or show you where you disagree. Most partnership trouble comes from unwritten assumptions and expectations, not a missing clause.

Question 10

Do we still need a lawyer?

Accepted Answer

For legal advice, yes, and each partner may want their own. Your MOU from Stay Partners isn't intended to be legally binding, but it gives a lawyer a clear starting point and can save significant time. Operating agreements from Stay Partners are coming soon.

Question 11

Will this help us resolve a dispute?

Accepted Answer

Stay Partners works when everyone wants to make it work. That might be two of three partners, not necessarily all of you. If you still want to make it work, comparing answers is a good way to find the real issue and agree on a fix. If someone has decided to leave, each of you needs a lawyer.

Question 12

What if we disagree?

Accepted Answer

That's the point of comparing. You'll see differences side by side and get a suggested wording that tries to honor both views. If it has become a dispute, talk to a lawyer of your own.

Question 13

How do I get in?

Accepted Answer

Sign up with your name and email and we'll send a link to set your password, usually within a minute. If your partner invites you, you can join straight from their link.
