Capy
Startup cap table: ownership, SAFEs, vesting and round modeling, plus drafts for admin approval.
Install
Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).
claude mcp add --transport http capy 'https://capyinc.com/mcp'{
"mcpServers": {
"capy": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://capyinc.com/mcp"

Capy
One thing done well: your cap table.
Open-source cap table management for founders. Import from Pulley, manage equity, and take your data with you.

Why Capy
We were Pulley customers too. We wanted a small, understandable product we could keep running, with code we could inspect and data we could export. So we built Capy.
This repository contains the web app, backend functions, equity calculations, import/export code, and deployment configuration. The hosted service at capyinc.com runs this application. Self-hosted installations do not require a Capy subscription.
What you can do
| Workflow | Included |
|---|---|
| Bring your cap table | Preview a detailed Pulley Excel export before signup; review reconciliation and warnings before saving; import contacts separately. |
| Manage equity | Track stakeholders, shares, options, SAFEs, share classes, and equity plans. Record corrections, option exercises, and cancellations with activity history. |
| Understand ownership | Review fully diluted ownership, plan reserves, and supported monthly vesting schedules. Search, sort, and filter the cap table. |
| Model fundraising | Compare priced-round dilution with pre-money and post-money SAFEs, caps, and discounts; save scenarios. |
| Share with stakeholders | Give a stakeholder access to their own holdings through an invitation that can be claimed once and revoked. |
| Keep records | Store documents and save approval, offer, and communication drafts. |
| Take your data | Download the cap table as Excel and individual tables as CSV. |
| Use it from AI apps | Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or another AI app over MCP to read the cap table and draft changes for an admin to apply. |

Current scope
Capy is a young project with a working hosted product. We publish the implementation, checks, and limitations so you can evaluate it yourself.
The current release does not send documents for signature, move money, file taxes, provide 409A appraisals, or automate legal-document generation. Open Cap Table Format export is on the roadmap; exports today are Excel and CSV. Email verification/password recovery delivery and administrator-team invitations are not yet implemented.
Read supported workflows and boundaries and the Pulley import guide before migrating a company.
Use Capy from your AI app
Add https://capyinc.com/mcp to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code or another MCP client, sign in, and choose which companies the app can see. The app can read your cap table and, if you allow it, draft grants, exercises, cancellations, stakeholder updates and board consents. Nothing changes until an admin applies the draft in Capy. See connecting AI apps.
Run locally
Requirements: Bun 1.3.14, Node.js 24, and your own Convex project. Stripe and Cloudflare credentials are not needed for local development.
git clone https://github.com/zain/capy.git
cd capy
bun install --frozen-lockfile
cp apps/web/.env.example apps/web/.env.local
bun run dev:setupCreate or select your own Convex project. Once the CLI has written packages/backend/.env.local, use a second terminal from the repository root to configure its development environment:
cd packages/backend
bunx convex env set SITE_URL http://localhost:3001
bunx convex env set BETTER_AUTH_SECRET "$(openssl rand -hex 32)"
bunx convex env set CAPY_SELF_HOSTED true
cd ../..The setup command waits for a successful push; if it reports missing environment variables, leave it running while setting them. Copy the deployment's .convex.cloud and .convex.site URLs into apps/web/.env.local, then:
bun run devOpen localhost:3001, create an account, and import a workbook or create an empty company. See the development guide for the full environment reference and troubleshooting.
Checks
bun run check # formatting, lint, production build, and TypeScript
bun run test # import/export, calculations, billing, and webhook tests
bun audit # known dependency vulnerabilitiesGitHub Actions runs these checks on pushes and pull requests, with a frozen lockfile and no production credentials. See CONTRIBUTING.md for the review and testing expectations.
