Similar to other compensation benchmarking surveys, Pave operates on a give-to-get model. The key difference with Pave, is that data is shared via real-time HR connections rather than an annual process of manual data entry. In order to ensure 100% real-time data, Pave requires that participating companies opt-in to the data network by connecting their HRIS and/or Cap Table systems.
If you currently use spreadsheets as your cap table system, we unfortunately don't support a CSV upload as all of our data is real-time. We recommend using Pulley and Captable.io as examples of lightweight equity management solutions, the latter of which offers a free product for smaller companies.
