Keep your minute book current without a law firm on retainer.

Carta holds the registers, resolutions and documents an Ontario corporation has to keep. Update them from your phone or your desk, and give your accountant a read-only login when they ask.

Create your free accountSee what's inside

Organizations created during the open beta keep a free perpetual license. Your records are stored on Canadian servers.

The tabs your lawyer expects to see.

A paper minute book is a binder with dividers. Carta keeps the same sections, so anyone who has reviewed one before knows where to look. Pick a tab to see what goes in it.

Directors and officers

Everyone who has sat on the board, with appointment and resignation dates. People who step down stay on the register with their history intact.

For the day someone asks for your records.

Your accountant needs the shareholders register for year-end.

Invite them as an auditor. They can read every register and download what they need, and they can't change anything.

The bank wants to know who can sign for the company.

Open the directors register and the banking resolution, export both as a PDF, and send them the same afternoon.

A director steps down.

Record the resignation date. They stay on the register as a former director, and the audit log shows who made the change.

You're selling shares to a new partner.

Draft the resolution, record the issuance with its class and number of shares, and attach the signed copy once everyone has signed.

Create your organization in the open beta, keep a perpetual license.

Carta is free during the open beta. Every organization you create while the beta is open keeps a free, perpetual license with every feature included. You don't need a card to sign up.

What Carta doesn't do. It doesn't file with the Ontario Business Registry for you, and there's no paralegal on call. Full-service incorporation companies include those and charge accordingly. If you already have a lawyer or accountant, you probably don't need them.
