Cap Table Clinic: The Founder's Guide to Vesting Schedules
Cap Table Clinic | Presented by Mantle
Issuing equity to your team is a major milestone, but setting up how they earn it can be a minefield.
Join us for a live Cap Table Clinic designed specifically for founders who want to master the fundamentals of vesting. We’ll break down the mechanics of how equity is earned over time and show you how to automate the entire process so you never have to worry about manual spreadsheet errors.
What we'll cover:
Vesting 101: We’ll break down the essentials every founder needs to know, including time-based vesting and performance-based milestones.
Designing Founder & Employee Schedules: How to structure vesting for co-founders vs. early hires to protect your company equity while keeping your team motivated.
Automating the Equity Clock: Watch a live demo of how to set up, track, and automatically update vesting schedules within your cap table, ensuring your ledger always reflects exact, real-time ownership.
We'll leave 10-15 minutes at the end for Q&A.
This session will be hosted by Amit Jethani (Co-founder @ Mantle) and Andrea Alexis-James (Customer Success @ Mantle).
