Sweat Equity: Now Tracked in Signed

The life of an angel investor can get a little complicated. Usually when you invest in a company you'll do it via a SAFE, or a purchase of shares, or something similar. But particularly if you're looking at a company in an advisory role, or if you simply want to track your equity from your day job, we now track option grants, share grants, and other form of sweat equity in Signed.

The new investment screen now has a new option: Where you work, where you can list details around these types of grants.

After adding the company, you'll be able to add the details of your grant, things like: are they options? RSUs? Stock? And then you'll be able to track any relevant strike price and current share price.

This equity will be rolled up into your general portfolio view, but the costs of exercising, for example, will not. The idea was to split a more "investment" orientated approach from something involving sweat equity. Have thoughts on what you'd like to see here instead of this approach? Shoot us a note and we'd be happy to take a look at it!
