Cap Table Modeling
Model different funding rounds and see how SAFEs, convertible notes, and equity dilution will impact your cap table before they happen.
Access the modeling tool

Review the "Starting information" section at the top, which automatically pulls your current cap table data from Cake
Click "+ Add round" and choose your round type:
Priced round, SAFE or convertibles - for basic modeling
Priced round incl SAFE/Con note - to model how existing SAFEs and convertible notes will convert in your next priced round
