There are 2 guys with spreadsheets in denver doing the same with information scrapped of linkedin and pitchbook on who works where who invested where…


Same can be said about JP Morgan who solicts you with credit card offers and other financial products no?

They know where you live and how much is your credit score you bank balance


None of those things have a material effect on anyone by JP Morgan.

The “service” Carta is selling here is your company to other people.

Given 99% of private companies have specific limitations on not being able to do this with a company’s securities, this almost certainly runs afoul of SEC, FINRA, and other fraud regulations.


Lol… someone has had quite a wedding experience


+1 Clearly looks manual high touch email


+1 affiliates (insider) have to certify below a certain threshold its a private buyer and a private seller so no biggie


Depends if you are the founder and how tightly you want to control the price


Thanks. Looks like some eager sales person. Info on price is available on multiple platforms. In fact some of your investors could be buyers.

I am a Carta user and my investors did not get any if these emails (I checked). My customer success person at said carta markets new products/service so maybe just opt out of emails/do not contact.


I don't have any private information but I am convinced it is NOT just one rogue employee. The company is clearly throwing this person under the bus. You're in denial.


Agree the price is available on multiple platforms Forge, Hiive etc. Can’t the company just opt out?


I would read the Terms of Service. What’s wrong with someone getting liquidity? VC sell their stakes to other VCs all the time why shouldn’t other investors or even tenured employees.

Liqudity programs like tender offers are price controlled not market controlled and companies are first to tout their RSU values in compensation packages esp when they are overvalued


Nooooo you can't do the same as the big boys! You're just a pleb >:(

Oh, these RSUs will totally make you rich one day, trust me bro :-)


How much is the subscription? wonder if they have a student discount?


They have a "under 30" plan.
