They modified the YC SAFE to make it a bit extra founder-friendly and “keep away from historic pitfalls we’ve seen with different varieties obtainable available in the market”. This appears to be corroborated by an exterior supply: https://siliconhillslawyer.com/2021/03/08/the-carta-safe-seed-rounds/.
Nevertheless, I am unable to discover wherever precisely what was modified from the YC SAFE to the Carta SAFE, and I’m not a lawyer so even when I in contrast them 5 instances I would not ensure. I’m attempting to ship out some SAFEs and might’t fairly work out which template to make use of.
