Frequently asked questions
Is Slyced a real alternative to Carta?
Yes. Slyced offers core cap table management plus a built-in virtual data room, unlimited e-signatures, and a fundraising CRM. The main difference is packaging: Slyced publishes flat startup pricing and bundles the founder workflow into one workspace.
Can I migrate from Carta to Slyced?
Yes. Export your data from Carta as a CSV, then use Slyced's import wizard to bring everything over in about 30 seconds. Your stakeholders, share classes, and equity grants transfer automatically.
What does Carta have that Slyced doesn't?
Carta has a larger enterprise offering for post-Series C companies, a fund administration product for VCs, and deeper third-party integrations. If you're a large, late-stage company or a VC fund, Carta may still be the better fit. For seed to Series A startups, Slyced covers the core workflow with public startup pricing.
Why is Slyced priced differently from Carta?
Slyced is built by a small, focused team using modern technology. We are packaging the founder-stage workflow directly instead of pushing every customer through enterprise-style bundles.
