Note: Upon uploading your document, only fully diluted data will be automatically detected and utilized throughout the process alongside the investor's name and number of shares..

Include & Exclude Format

Please note that Edda follows Excel formatting. All operations involving the exclusion or addition of data should adhere to Excel formatting. Example:  Adding data from cell A1 to A30: A1:A30

  1. First, verify if the right columns are imported, even if the import appears successful. Confirm this by checking the header under ‘Dataset’ on Edda and comparing it with the headers in your Excel file.

  2. Exclude or include any unselected fields. Each Captable is unique; some display total or additional shares for investors between rows. Use Excel formatting to include missing rows.

    - Click ‘Edit’ and determine from which row data should be imported and to which row it should end.

    - If there are any duplicated or undesired rows, click on the ‘x’ button to exclude them. This will remove the duplicated lines causing abnormal percentage variations from the important lines.

    Note that excluding a specific row from the first column will also result in its removal from the other columns.


  3. After making the necessary changes and seeing the success notification, you can click 'Continue' to proceed to the final step.

    Feature Performance Highlights

    Hera.I is an AI module that we are continually improving. It can process complex scenarios. This section outlines what Hera.I expects and what to avoid during the import process to prevent slowing it down:

    Expected Behavior and Ideal Captable

    Hera.I expects the Captable file-tab to contain a single Captable with three main headers used throughout the process: "Shareholders", "Number of Shares", and "Diluted Percentage". Here's a sample of the ideal Captable

    This is how it looks during the import process.

    Actions to Avoid

    • Avoid including multiple Captables on the same tab. You can have multiple Captables in the same file, but not on the same tab.
    • Avoid including multiple sub-headers.

    Even though we recommend avoiding these actions to ensure the best experience, Hera.I edit model can help you navigate these complex scenarios by following the steps in the 'Include & Exclude Format' section above.
