New fixed-fee offering delivers end-to-end Seed financing — giving founders the predictability they want and investors the protection they need

Carta Law, the AI-native law firm for private capital, today announced the launch of Carta Law Venture Financing, a fixed-fee offering that handles Seed financings end-to-end — from term sheet to close. Backed by Carta's proprietary AI and an experienced startup attorney on every deal, Carta Law Venture Financing gives founders the speed and predictability of a SAFE with the structure and protection of a priced round.

"Since launching Carta Law, we've been automating the highest-volume legal work in private capital," said Henry Ward, CEO at Carta. "NDAs first, then LP transfers, now Venture Financings. Founders shouldn't be spending $90K–$150K to close a standard, run-of-the-mill Seed round. Those priced rounds should close as fast and predictably as SAFEs. Now they can."

Carta Law Venture Financing covers a Seed financing end-to-end for a flat fee, including term sheet review, pro-forma cap table modeling, financing document preparation, closing mechanics, state and federal securities filings, and cap table updates post-close. First drafts are delivered within 24 hours.

Founders benefit from four core advantages:

• AI, backed by real lawyers. Carta's proprietary AI is used by Carta Law legal teams to deliver a faster, more consistent experience — with attorney review and sign off.
• Built on Carta's Data Insights. Carta processes approximately 75% of all VC priced rounds. That's 55,000+ transactions of precedent baked into every Carta Law document generated, giving founders terms that investors recognize and accept.
• End-to-end execution. One point of contact from term sheet to close.
• Transparent flat-fee pricing. Founders know the cost of a standard financing before they start. No ballooning billable hours.

"Every year we watch great founders lose weeks and tens of thousands of dollars on legal work for rounds that should be routine," said David Cohen, founder and CEO of Techstars. "That's time and money that should go into building the company. A priced Seed round sets the foundation for everything that comes after, and Carta Law makes it fast, predictable, and affordable. That's why we're bringing it to the Techstars community."

Antler, Techstars, and 500 Global are going to market with Carta Law as launch partners — representing accelerators and early-stage investors who work closest with seed-stage founders and see most directly where the current model could be improved.

Carta Law Venture Financing follows the same model Carta has applied across cap tables, 409As, fund administration, and LP transfers: take the highest-volume, most painful legal work in private capital and automate it, with experts in the loop where judgment is required. When Carta Law closes a financing round, the documents flow directly into Carta's cap table. The cap table feeds the 409A — without the founder acting as intermediary between their lawyers, investors, and cap table provider. Venture Financing is the latest step in Carta’s effort to bring legal, compliance, and fund operations onto a single platform for private capital.
