Chisos is an investment platform that provides idea-stage and side-hustle founders with an alternative funding option. Chisos invests $15-50k using a Convertible Income Share Agreement, which combines an income share agreement with the founder and a small percentage of equity in the founder’s business. The unique investment model facilitates investment in pre-traction or side-hustle businesses, where other capital sources are not available.
