Intent

I need it when

Startup wants to issue SAFEs and track equity instruments with e-signature capability

Starter includes SAFE signing and templates plus the ability to record and track securities. Founders can issue SAFEs with built-in e-signature integration and maintain a structured record without manual spreadsheets.

Company needs to model fundraising scenarios and plan future equity rounds

Starter offers scenario modeling and pro forma capabilities, allowing founders to test different fundraising outcomes, adjust cap table projections, and make data-driven decisions before closing rounds.

Founder wants AI-powered assistance to automate equity workflows and reduce manual work

Starter includes AI workflow tools and a Cap Table Copilot that automate routine equity tasks, answer questions about the cap table, and help manage vesting schedules and security records with minimal manual effort.

Legal counsel or law firm needs secure access to cap table data for due diligence

Starter includes law firm integration and cap table exports in Open Cap Table Format (OCX), enabling external counsel to review equity records securely without requiring separate tools or manual data transfers.

Early-stage founder needs to create and manage a cap table without upfront cost

Mantle Starter is free and provides unlimited stakeholders, cap table management, AI workflow tools, and exportable cap tables. Founders can record securities, SAFEs, and vesting schedules at no cost, making it ideal for pre-seed and seed-stage companies.
