Service Components

Grant Management Infrastructure: Create and manage Restricted Token Units (RTU), Restricted Token Agreements (RTA), Restricted Token Purchase Agreements (RTPA), and Token Warrant programs. The platform handles grant documentation, fair market value (FMV) determination, and compliant reporting through payroll or tax filings.

Vesting Schedule Automation: Track and automate vesting schedules based on time or performance milestones, with automated notifications and compliance reporting as tokens vest. Supports linear vesting, cliff schedules, and custom vesting curves.

Cap Table Integration: Manage token cap tables alongside equity grants, providing unified visibility into all forms of compensation across the organization. Track investor and team token holdings with comprehensive cap table management and reporting.

On-Chain Distribution Infrastructure: Facilitate compliant on-chain token distributions with integration to major blockchain networks, ensuring proper tax withholding and reporting at the point of distribution. Includes airdrop distribution infrastructure and claim portals for recipients.

Open-Source Legal Templates: Toku has open-sourced country-specific token grant agreement templates developed in collaboration with leading local law firms to ensure compliance. Templates are localized for different jurisdictions to comply with country-specific employment laws and regulations.
