Fairmint

Fairmint is a platform that "puts equity on‑chain", meaning it enables the issuance, management and transfer of ownership stakes (cap tables) using the blockchain while ensuring regulatory compliance.

Products and services offered :

• Platform for founders: fundraising dashboard and real‑time cap table management.
• Registered transfer agent service (SEC) for transparent recordkeeping and compliant transfers.
• Open‑source standards and protocols for cap tables (Open Cap Table Format — OCF) and for bringing them on‑chain (Open Cap Table Protocol — OCP).
• Built‑in compliance features: KYC, KYB, AML and investor accreditation verification.
• Tools for investors: private portfolio tracking app, AI‑powered automatic ingestion of documents (SAFEs, convertible notes, stock certificates) and a consolidated view of investments.

Target market: primarily founders and startups raising capital, as well as investors (notably accredited investors) and international investor networks looking to issue or manage equity holdings in compliance with U.S. rules and with audit‑ready traceability. Legal and technical stakeholders interested in cap table standards (OCF/OCP) are also among the intended audiences.
