It’s important to execute the relevant conversion agreements before recording them in your cap table. Recording the conversion in the cap table by itself does not effectuate the legal conversion transaction.

​
Using Cap Table Simulations

One input to the conversion process (within the context of SAFEs/CNs and equity financings) is the cap table pro forma, which forecasts share counts and fully diluted ownership post-conversion event.

To request a Simulation (pro forma), navigate to the Simulations tab, ensure that you have subscribed to a pricing plan that includes Simulations, then complete the request form.

It will produce an Excel-based pro forma (the format that your legal team and prospective investors will want to see it in because it contains the underlying formulas).

Recording SAFE/Convertible Note Conversions

Once you’ve legally executed a SAFE/Convertible Note conversion, you can record the conversion and upload the conversion agreements in your cap table:

  1. Navigate to Securities > Shares.
  2. Add a share security for the conversion shares:
  1. Complete the share creation workflow:

  1. Navigate to Securities -> Convertibles and open the SAFE/Convertible Note you’d like to convert

  2. Select the relevant share security from the “Converted to” field and add the conversion date.
