Official identity announced October 3, 2022, after the spring 2022 campaign. Do not describe as a campaign screenshot.
Invested, as reported by Wefunder's case-study summary
Platform-reported community-round total; includes a Reg CF offering.
The $5,240,140 platform summary is larger than the $5,000,000 maximum in the Reg CF filing. The additional allocation's final exemption breakdown was not verified. Conversion is a financing event, not a realized investment return.
Separate early demand from funding
Wefunder's April 2022 announcement reported more than $5.7 million reserved within 24 hours and explicitly called this testing the waters.
Founder takeaway: Label launch demand as reservations, not money received.
Make the instrument legible
Replit's Form C identified a SAFE, a Wefunder SPV co-issuer, a $50,000 target and a $5 million maximum.
Founder takeaway: Explain the structure alongside the campaign narrative.
Report what happens after closing
Replit's April 2023 announcement said the SAFEs of more than 2,500 community members converted in that financing.
Founder takeaway: Give investors a clear account of subsequent instrument changes.
