Questions, answered

Will it email the stockholder directly about the 83(b) election?

No. WebRun creates a Gmail draft and leaves it for your legal team to review and personalise. The stockholder receives nothing until your team opens the draft and clicks Send.

What if the grant is not a restricted stock grant subject to 83(b)?

WebRun only creates 83(b) deadline tracking for restricted stock grants where an 83(b) election is applicable. Stock options and RSUs are excluded automatically based on the grant type in Carta.

Does it handle the case where a stockholder files on their own before the deadline?

WebRun tracks the deadline and draft status, but it cannot confirm receipt by the IRS. Once your team confirms the election was filed, you can mark the calendar event as complete and archive the draft.
