SAFE Agreement

A SAFE is the classic fundraising instrument for early-stage companies. Whether you are a corporation or an LLC, a SAFE is often used when the company valuation is too debatable to nail down a stock (or membership interest) price AND when founders want to keep the costs of a capital raise as low as possible.

Unlike a convertible note, a SAFE does not bear interest, come due at a maturity date, nor does it sit on the balance sheet as debt.

You can download the SAFE Agreement for free by visiting Y Combinator. However, if you want someone to walk you through the process, fill out the form here and we'll get you started. Note that we help you finalize your SAFE for a fixed fee, but if you want us to manage the raise we charge hourly.
