Advise early-stage companies on structured company data
Retain founders past the first engagement, identify the matters coming next and grow every client relationship. Your firm gets one platform, and every founder you advise gets their own. Powered by Phronel.
You get a platform. So do your founders.
One shared system. Your partners see every early-stage client clearly, every founder gets their own workspace to grow and raise, and you stay on their team from the first engagement to the exit.
Phronel is Caplia’s private intelligence, purpose-built for the early-stage ecosystem.
Your partners use it to understand every client and spot the advice they need next; founders use it to improve their fundamental readiness.
Discover PhronelBuilt-in intelligence for early-stage legal
Caplia combines structured company data, CRI, P15 and Phronel to help law firms support founders, see further across every client and offer better services, earlier.
The universal readiness index. Built on outcomes, not opinions.
The CRI™ is the empirically backed standard for capital readiness: one score from 0 to 1,000, 28 evidenced signals across five areas. Developed in research collaboration with Oxford Saïd Business School and re-weighted on real fundraising outcomes, so every score reflects what actually gets companies funded.

Answers to common questions
Caplia offers law firms a bespoke setup service. We build your client workspace, configure your onboarding flows and calibrate Phronel to your early-stage practice, so your partners run on infrastructure shaped around how you advise founders.
Caplia gives law firms a dedicated platform to onboard early-stage clients, understand their readiness and see the matters coming across the client book. Founders get the Caplia Passport, the Caplia Readiness Index, their data room and cap table, and Phronel, while your partners get intelligence across every company you advise.
Founders use Caplia week to week to run their business and their raise, with your firm built in. You share the advice you spot on the platform, give founders quantified value along their journey, and stay close between matters.
Phronel combines readiness, P15 traction signals and activity to show which clients are approaching a raise, hiring or restructuring, so your partners can offer the right advice before the founder has to ask.
Founders keep their cap table and data room on Caplia, and can give their counsel direct, permissioned access. Access is logged, sensitive documents can sit behind NDA, and founders always control who sees what.
No. Caplia complements your practice management and document systems. It adds a client readiness and intelligence layer, and connects to your own tools through API and MCP.
Yes. Data is encrypted at rest and in transit, access is role-based and logged, and Phronel never shares or trains on your data. No founder data is shared, ever. ISO 27001 certification is in progress.
Pricing is based on the number of early-stage clients you support, the setup required and whether you need custom reporting or branded access. Talk to our team for a tailored proposal.
