“Your equity is the most valuable asset that your company has if your company ends up being successful.” Pulley CEO and Co-founder Yin Wu spoke to Jessica Livingston and Carolynn Levy at The Social Radars about how to get equity basics right early. Know the basics: How much of the company do you own? How do you know what you own? Do you own enough as a founder to negotiate new investment? Full episode link in comments.

As companies grow, they often try to scale their process for managing equity in-house. That can lead to complexity, especially if they have equity-based incentives. DataOceans found that after 18 years managing their equity in-house, they needed a better solution. They tried a number of cap table technology providers, but those providers were unwilling to dive in to the underlying complexity of their cap table. DataOceans turned to Pulley to modernize their equity management, and they loved the experience. Read more on our blog.

We've made it easier for companies with an existing cap table provider to switch to Pulley. Read Pulley CEO Yin Wu's thoughts on why more companies are switching.
Pulley just had our best quarter ever! More companies are switching to our platform than ever before. Founders loved our promo in January because it gave them the flexibility to switch on their terms. We wanted to bring back the offer to give more companies the opportunity to experience better cap table management. If you make the switch before the end of May, we'll discount the cost for Pulley by the remaining balance of your existing cap table contract. This removes barriers to switching now, and allows you to get the benefits of a better platform today. When it comes to something as critical as your equity, trust is everything. Read my post on why companies are making the switch: https://lnkd.in/gq5J8KBv
