As of today, Vquity's pricing is public and self-serve: $990 a year, or $99 a month, flat per company workspace, with a free tier that's genuinely useful rather than a demo in disguise. And to mark the launch, the first 15 companies to subscribe get the annual plan at $490 a year, a rate that stays locked for as long as the subscription stays active.
The founding cohort, precisely
- What: the full Vquity platform, annual billing, at $490 instead of $990. Same features, same limits (none), same support.
- Who: the first 15 company workspaces to subscribe. The cap is enforced automatically at checkout, not by a marketing countdown: when seat 15 is taken, the plan stops being purchasable.
- How long: the rate is locked while your subscription stays active. Cancel and come back later, and you pay the standard rate like everyone else.
- Why: early customers shape the product and tolerate rough edges. A permanent discount is the honest way to pay for that.
What free means here
Free is not a 14-day timer. It's every module (cap table, rounds, SAFEs, options and vesting, waterfall modeling, valuations, data room, contract studio, portals) for one company with up to 10 stakeholders. Sample companies are unlimited and fully featured, so you can explore a seeded US, UAE, or Saudi company end to end before entering a single real record. When your real cap table passes 10 stakeholders, or you need a second company in the workspace, that's when we ask to be paid.
Two things stay free forever on every plan, deliberately: data exports (XLSX, JSON, CSV, and the Data Room zip) and reading your own records. Your exit rights are not a pricing lever.
Why flat pricing, one more time
Most cap-table tools bill by stakeholder count or size band, which means every option grant to a new hire nudges your software bill upward. We think that's backwards: broad ESOPs and investor transparency are things your equity tool should encourage, not meter. Vquity costs the same whether your cap table holds 12 stakeholders or 300. The math of how much that difference compounds is in the real cost of cap-table software.
The boring, important mechanics
- Payment runs through Stripe Checkout. Card details never touch Lisan servers.
- Upgrading happens inside the app: Settings, then Plan & Billing. No sales call required (though we're happy to talk).
- Cancel anytime from the billing portal; access runs to the end of the paid period.
- Prices are in USD. One subscription covers the whole workspace: every company, stakeholder, portal, and teammate in it.
How to claim a seat
Lisan is currently invite-only, so the path is: request access (it takes an email address), get your invite, create your company (the guided wizard takes a few minutes, or upload your documents and let the AI pre-fill), and upgrade from Settings when you're ready. Founding seats are counted at the moment of subscription, not signup, so exploring first costs you nothing.
