SAFE Conversion Calculator is a web app designed to help founders and investors understand how their SAFE notes convert to equity in a priced round. As a former founder, I was surprised by the lack of transparency and understanding about how the mechanics of this process work and how complex the conversion process can be given the lack of a closed form solution.
