Based off of your telling of the facts, it appears that if the other founders were reasonable, they would be able to tell the difference in value between the previous developer's work and your own.

I don't know you, but I would suggest being more aggressive with asking them what their contribution is. Objectively, they would have $0 of sales without your work. Conversely, you may have had $0 of sales without their personal network. I think this would be a good topic for conversation to set the bar for establishing the value of each founder's contributions.

They say their contribution is making sales. It's a similar issue where, do I know at, say 2:37pm on a Wednesday, they are talking to a customer? I don't, but I trust that they are. My issue is getting them to trust that I'm doing the same.

No amount Slack comment content/timestamps, github commits content/timestamps, website features that get added seem to be able to clue them in to level of effort.
