    Methodology & VC Standards

    How does the Valuation Cap function in SAFE conversions?

    The model divides the entered pre-money valuation and valuation cap by the existing founder shares. The lower of the discounted base price and cap price determines the conversion price. Contract-specific definitions of the capitalisation basis are not modelled separately.

    Which SAFE differences does this model represent?

    Pre-money and post-money SAFEs use the same simplified formula here. Guaranteed post-money ownership percentages and differences between specific SAFE contracts are not modelled. The calculator applies interest only to convertible notes. Review the contract terms and capitalisation basis separately before making a financing decision.
