Original Best Practice:  Safe (Simple Agreement for Future Equity) Financing Documents  by Y Combinator

Description
Inspired by the SAFE made by Y Combinator, this has been created with added discount, cap, and maturity date so that it would be better suited to a Canadian market.

Advantages
It is a quick and straightforward agreement
Similarly to a convertible loan, it favors the company
Most effective in an active market with potentially successful startups
In certain regions it can help with gaining a tax credit

Disadvantages
The deal is open-ended sometimes leading to the investor being left waiting around
If the entrepreneur does not have sufficient knowledge on structure, the deal can be used in an inappropriate way
Some formats of this deal may not function in Canada
