CakeEquity - lapsed options

We've made two key improvements to how you handle lapsing offers in Cake Equity. Whether you're offboarding someone who never returned from leave or accelerating vesting for a departing team member, these improvements make the process more intuitive and efficient.

Different companies have different equity strategies. Some want options to last 10 years from grant, others prefer 15 years from when vesting starts. 

With Cake Equity, you can now configure expiration that matches your timeline, protects your team's upside, and aligns with how your business actually operates.

You can now apply vesting terms directly to share issuances on your cap table. This lets you add custom vesting arrangements to any shares, which is typically the case for founder shares.
