Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know.

Can startup equity documents (SAFEs, option grants) be signed electronically?

Yes. SAFEs, convertible notes, restricted stock agreements, and option grant notices are routinely executed electronically. Zignature's audit trail provides the signing evidence required for cap table management and future due diligence.

What is a SAFE and can it be signed with Zignature?

A SAFE (Simple Agreement for Future Equity) is a convertible instrument used by startups instead of priced equity rounds. YC-standard SAFEs and variants can be executed via Zignature's e-signature platform — legally binding and audit-ready.

How do I handle a full round closing with 20+ investors using Zignature?

Use Zignature's bulk send feature — upload a list of all investors with their individual SAFE or subscription data, and dispatch personalized documents to all investors simultaneously. The completion dashboard shows real-time signing status.

Does Zignature support 83(b) election reminders alongside restricted stock agreements?

Yes. Bundle the RSA and 83(b) election information (and a reminder to timely file) in a single signing package. Note: 83(b) elections must be physically mailed to the IRS — the signed RSA is a separate document from the 83(b) election itself.

Can employees exercise stock options via Zignature?

Yes. Create option exercise agreement and stock power templates in Zignature. Employees complete the exercise by signing digitally — combined with payment confirmation, this creates the complete exercise record.

Is Zignature suitable for later-stage M&A transaction equity documents?

Yes. M&A transactions involving equity consideration — stock purchase agreements, escrow agreements, and stockholder agreements — can all be executed via Zignature. M&A counsel typically oversees execution for high-value transactions.
