About Vestd
What is Vestd?
Vestd is a cloud-based sharetech platform and SaaS software designed to help companies digitize and manage their equity, shareholder records, and employee share schemes. Essentially, it replaces complex, manual spreadsheets with an automated, legal-grade digital framework.
Who is Vestd for?
The Vestd Equity Platform is built for multiple stakeholders within private businesses, predominantly serving startups, scaleups, and Small to Medium Enterprises (SMEs) • United Kingdom: The software is highly optimized for UK businesses, serving as the country's only FCA-regulated platform with direct automation into Companies House for filings. • India: Through Vestd India (powered by their Trica Equity acquisition), it is configured for Indian startups needing compliance management under local regulations
What type of software is Vestd?
Vestd is listed under Cap Table Software.
What are Vestd's core capabilities?
Instead of handling equity via paperwork and manual tracking, companies use Vestd for: • Cap Table Management: It tracks who owns what percentage of the company in real time, automatically adjusting ownership visibility through multiple funding rounds and equity events. • Employee Share Schemes & ESOPs: Companies can design, launch, and manage employee stock option plans (ESOPs), Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), and specialized tax-efficient options (like EMI or CSOP in the UK). • Regulatory & Legal Compliance: It stands out as the UK's only fully FCA-regulated sharetech platform and features a live, two-way integration with Companies House to automate corporate filings and digital share certifications. • Shareholder Dashboards: Investors, founders, and employees get individual, secure logins to track the real-time monetary value of their vested equity stakes. • International Expansion: Originally built for the UK market, the platform merged its operations with India-based Trica Equity (a subsidiary of LetsVenture) to form Vestd India, opening up its full-stack cap table and compliance operating system to thousands of cross-border startups
