Equity & Cap Table Management System for Startups

Bring clarity and control to your startup’s equity and ownership structure.

Schedule a discussion What we build for complex businesses

Context

As startups raise funds and expand teams, equity structures become harder to manage. Multiple stakeholders, funding rounds, and ESOP allocations create complexity that spreadsheets cannot reliably handle. Without a clear system, even small errors can create serious financial and legal issues.

Who this is for

We usually work best with teams who know building software is more than just shipping code.

This is for teams who

Startups managing multiple funding rounds

Founders handling ESOPs and investor allocations

Teams preparing for due diligence or audits

Companies needing clear ownership visibility

Startups scaling equity structures with growth

This may not fit for

Early-stage ideas without formal equity structure

Startups with very simple single-founder ownership

Teams not planning fundraising or ESOP allocation

Businesses comfortable managing equity manually

Problem framing

The operating reality

Equity complexity creates risk and confusion

Cap tables managed manually often lead to incorrect ownership data, unclear dilution, and inconsistent records. Founders struggle to track changes across funding rounds, while investors and employees lack visibility. This creates friction during fundraising, audits, and decision-making, reducing trust and increasing risk.

How this is usually solved (and why it breaks)

Common approaches

Managing cap tables in spreadsheets

Tracking dilution manually across rounds

Handling ESOPs without structured systems

Sharing limited or outdated ownership data

Where these approaches fall short

High risk of calculation errors

Lack of real-time ownership visibility

Difficult and slow due diligence process

Increased confusion among stakeholders
