An easy-to-use cap table platform designed for growing teams
Published Oct 2, 2026
Some third-party commentary has attempted to quantify market share for incumbents, but such figures should be treated cautiously unless sourced to rigorous market research.
| Starting Price | Public sources suggested an initial no-cost tier and low entry pricing, but pricing may be stale following the wind-down | Vendor offers an entry-level free option for small stakeholder counts; additional tiers and terms are published by the vendor | Published pricing information available from the vendor (details vary by plan) |
| Typical use case | Legacy Salto X customers migrating; historical early-stage European startup use | Active platform positioned to serve startups with cap table and options management | Early-stage startups prioritizing predictable pricing and usability |
| Key Strength | Historically: usability-focused interface and employee education tooling | Successor path for Salto X customers; actively supported as of 2026 | Market recognition as an alternative with a startup focus |
| Key Weakness | Platform wind-down; limited independent reviews; unclear publicly documented security posture | Buyers should validate security/compliance and migration support | May lack some enterprise/legal workflow depth relative to larger incumbents |
Salto X announced a transition to Cake Equity and platform wind-down, making Cake Equity the practical continuation path for many Salto X customers. Buyers should validate migration support, data export/import fidelity, and contract transition terms.
Carta is a category incumbent with broad adoption and ecosystem integrations. Buyers should evaluate Carta’s feature set, published pricing, and historical operational issues in context. Cap table systems are data-sensitive and procurement should weigh data access, exportability, and contractual protections.
Vendor materials positioned Ledgy as having broader feature depth (scenario planning, complex reporting, integrations). That framing came from vendor-authored comparisons and should be validated independently.
