Thanks so much, that's exactly what I was looking for! I'm not looking for anything beyond fiduciary duties and they've agreed to zero compensation. Thanks! A help topic on this linked during the "add a director" flow would help put a mind at ease. I really appreciate your service so far.

Great to hear! We'll definitely take a look at how we can improve this!
But if your situation requires something beyond those fiduciary duties — e.g. if you want them to be obligated to spend a certain amount of time on the company, want to memorialize compensation terms, etc., then an agreement could make sense. If you need a referral to an attorney to help with that, feel free to reach out to our support team!
