Cap table access is essential for understanding your investment portfolio, but companies often wait for a request before granting it. Our goal is to equip investors and portfolio companies with the tools to request and grant access securely. With our latest release, investment firms now have robust tools to manage cap table requests, ask for the specific data levels they need, and follow up with companies to secure access.

What’s new?

We’re making it easier for investment firms to request and manage cap table access from their portfolio companies. :

• See how many portfolio companies are on Carta, your access status, and any open requests. Sort and filter by access level, company name, date, holdings, and status.
• Send bulk or individual requests and reminders for cap table access in two clicks.
• Export reports with access levels, request details, company status, and contact info for investor questions.

Who is this available for?

All users with “admin” permission in your investment firm.

How do I use it?

To access the page, navigate to your investment firm account, click on "Tools and services" in your sidebar, and select "Cap table access." You may also receive a prompt from the Investments Overview page to request access.

Anything else I need to know?

If you are not sure what levels you will need access to, Advanced is the most common level we see granted for investors. Portfolio companies can always choose to respond with Basic access, if they do not want to grant advanced.

If there are additional enhancements you would like to see here, you can provide feedback via Carta Community.
