Cap Table Management

As you prepare to grow and raise a round of equity financing, ESOP ezee enables you to have a firm grasp of your shareholding structure. With the increasing frequency of capital raises, use of different convertible instruments, wide use of ESOPs, maintaining Cap table on a simple excel sheet is no longer an effective solution.

Each investor in a company also has his own version of Cap table and significant productive time is lost in reconciling the multiple versions.

Cap table solution provided by ESOP ezee, helps address all these requirements and pain points. We provide a managed service taking process ownership. We have formed a partnership with Astrella, a platform sponsored by AST Private Company Solutions, Inc (AST PCS), a trusted name worldwide, to provide an integrated solution to manage and store cap tables in blockchain, assuring a comprehensive history of ownership.
