Cap Table

The free, open-source cap table tool for early-stage founders. Tracks founders, options pool, SAFEs, and priced rounds in one place.

Live tool: batkotron.github.io/cap-table

By Michael Batko - founder of batko.ai, the platform helping founders raise smarter.

What it does

  • Track founders, employees, advisors, and option pool
  • Add SAFEs with cap and discount, see fully-diluted ownership
  • Model priced rounds with new investors and option pool top-up
  • See your dilution waterfall across multiple rounds
  • Export to CSV

Why this exists

Most founders manage their cap table in a spreadsheet that breaks the moment a SAFE converts. Carta and Pulley are powerful but expensive ($300+/month) and overkill for pre-seed and seed companies.

This tool fills the gap: more structured than a spreadsheet, free, and open-source.

Run it locally

git clone https://github.com/batkotron/cap-table
cd cap-table
npm install
npm run dev

Open http://localhost:3000.

Build for production

npm run build

The static export is written to out/. The GitHub Actions workflow auto-deploys this to GitHub Pages on every push to main.

Disclaimer

This is not legal or financial advice. Real cap tables have complexity (different share classes, vesting schedules, anti-dilution provisions) this tool doesn't model. Always verify with your lawyer and accountant before making decisions based on this output.
