Cake is built for US startups. The team is based in Los Angeles. The platform is designed around US compliance requirements: 409A valuations, ASC 718 stock-based compensation reporting, Rule 701 exemptions, and 83(b) election reminders. Cake serves growing US startups that need an accurate cap table, a compliant equity program, and a team they can actually reach.
Cake was built for the compliance reality US startups face. The 409A valuation requirement, ASC 718 stock-based compensation reporting for audits, Rule 701 for private company equity issuances, and 83(b) elections for restricted stock — these are US-specific regulatory touchpoints. Cake handles all of them natively, not as bolt-on features.
The Cake team is based in Los Angeles. When founders or finance teams have questions, they reach a US-based support team with a 9.9/10 Quality of Support score on G2. That score reflects real responsiveness, not a ticketing system. US compliance questions get answered by people who know the rules firsthand.
Cake is trusted by more than 10,000 US startups and recommended by 100+ VCs, attorneys, and accelerators operating in the US market. That network of recommendations reflects something important: the people who see cap tables up close, across hundreds of portfolio companies and client deals, have chosen to refer Cake. When a founder's attorney or investor recommends a cap table platform, they're putting their own reputation on the line.
