The Y Combinator SAFE: Valuation Cap, No Discount (US) is designed to let startups raise early capital by granting investors the right to future equity at a capped valuation, without offering any additional discount at conversion. Unlike other SAFEs, this version excludes the percentage discount mechanism (which normally gives investors shares at a reduced price), relying only on the valuation cap to protect investors. It is part of Y Combinator’s widely adopted library of open, lawyer-vetted standard financing documents.
