Generate a SAFE. YC standard. Both versions.
The Simple Agreement for Future Equity (SAFE) is the standard early-stage investment instrument. Y Combinator publishes the canonical forms (post-money since 2018, pre-money for older convertibles). We generate clean SAFEs for both versions with the four standard configurations: valuation cap only, discount only, valuation cap + discount, MFN (most-favored-nation) only. Includes side letter for advisor SAFEs.
How we handle SAFE Generator, end-to-end.
The Simple Agreement for Future Equity (SAFE) is the standard early-stage investment instrument.
Pick post-money or pre-money
Post-money SAFE (YC standard since 2018) gives investors a fixed percentage of post-money ownership. Pre-money SAFE (older standard) gives investors a fixed dollar amount, with dilution shared with founders. Most new SAFEs use post-money.
Pick the variant
Valuation cap only (most common), discount only (rare), valuation cap + discount (very common), MFN only (rare, used for advisor or strategic SAFEs).
Configure key terms
Investor name, investment amount, valuation cap, discount rate (typically 0-20%), pro rata side letter if applicable.
