# Cap Table Modeling Engine for equity math. AI Agent Connect

> Cap Table Modeling Engine gives your AI client the ability to handle complex equity math. It handles the heavy lifting of simulating how convertible notes turn into equity, how new option pools dilute existing holders, and exactly how much cash goes to each shareholder during a liquidity event.

## Description

You can stop manually building messy spreadsheets to answer basic equity questions. This MCP gives your agent the math engine it needs to model a company's capitalization table accurately. You can use it to see how a new funding round or an expanded option pool changes everyone's percentage. It handles the math for converting SAFEs and convertible notes based on your specific valuation targets. When you need to know what a sale actually means for shareholders, it runs the waterfall to distribute cash according to the current cap table. It's a direct way to get answers about ownership, dilution, and exit payouts without the manual error of a hand-built model.

## Tools

### query_current_ownership
This tool pulls the current distribution of ownership across the company. It shows you exactly who holds what percentage right now.

### simulate_dilution
Use this to model how issuing new equity or expanding an option pool affects existing shareholders. It calculates the resulting ownership shifts.

### calculate_exit_waterfall
This tool determines the specific cash amounts distributed to shareholders during a liquidity event. It follows the payout order for all stakeholders.

### convert_instruments
This tool simulates the conversion of SAFEs and convertible notes into equity. It uses your target valuation and specific terms to find the new ownership levels.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the current ownership of the company?
```

**Response:** 
```
The current shareholders are: Alice (40%), Bob (30%), and the Employee Pool (30%).
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How much will the shareholders receive if the company is sold for $50,000,000?
```

**Response:** 
```
Based on the exit waterfall, Alice will receive $20,000,000, Bob will receive $15,000,000, and the Employee Pool will receive $15,000,000.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What happens to ownership if we increase the option pool to 15%?
```

**Response:** 
```
Increasing the option pool to 15% will result in Alice's ownership moving from 40% to 34%, Bob's from 30% to 25.5%, and the Employee Pool from 30% to 25.5%.
```
