For real estate fund sponsors

Run your Reg D fund on the operating system — from raise to K-1s

Investor onboarding, cap table, distributions, waterfalls, and multi-state K-1s on one platform, with the official register maintained by an SEC-registered transfer agent. The manager promises. AKRU operationalizes. The platform proves.

The problem

Your fund runs on a stack that doesn't talk to itself

Most sponsors run a Reg D fund on spreadsheets and three vendors: one tool for investor reporting, an accountant for K-1s, and a spreadsheet for the waterfall. Every quarter you reconcile between them by hand, and every K-1 season you hope the allocations tie. They don't always tie — and when they don't, it's your team that finds out in March, one LP call at a time.

What AKRU operationalizes

The whole fund lifecycle, on one event fabric

506(b) / 506(c) workflows

Offering workflows for both exemption paths, with the subscription, verification, and closing steps sequenced in the platform rather than in an inbox.

Accreditation & KYC rails

Identity verification, accreditation, and AML screening built into onboarding — compliance is handled before an investor funds, not audited after.

Cap table & registrar of record

One cap table as the source of truth for every downstream figure, maintained as the official register by a registered transfer agent.

Distributions & waterfalls

The waterfall computed from the same record the distributions pay from — preferred returns, splits, and catch-ups with nothing to reconcile.

LP portal

Statements, capital activity, documents, and K-1s in one identity-bound portal your investors log into — no wallets, no crypto experience required.

K-1 engine

87% of K-1 content auto-derived from the cap table, multi-state support, and a QA gate that blocks any allocation off by more than $0.01 from Schedule K totals.

Transfer agent of record

AKRU is an SEC-registered transfer agent — your fund's recordkeeping is operated by a regulated entity, not a software subscription. What that means

Moving an existing fund

Migration is a registrar change — not a re-papering

Bringing an existing fund onto AKRU is a recordkeeping migration: the fund appoints AKRU as its transfer agent and registrar of record, and your investor records, positions, and distribution history are imported and reconciled onto the platform. That's the whole event — zero disruption to the fund's legal structure, offering documents, or LP relationships. Your fund docs don't change. Your LPs don't re-subscribe. The security an investor holds the day after migration is the same security they held the day before; what changes is where the official register lives and how much of your quarter it takes to maintain. Sponsors have moved hundreds of LP positions this way without missing a reporting cycle.

Questions sponsors ask

Frequently asked questions

Do we have to change our fund documents to move to AKRU?

No. Moving an existing fund onto AKRU is a registrar change — a recordkeeping migration. Your operating agreement, PPM, and subscription documents stay as they are; what changes is the entity maintaining the official register and the system it runs on.

What happens to our current cap table?

It is imported and reconciled during onboarding — investor records, positions, and distribution history — and becomes the register of record on the platform. From that point, every distribution and tax figure derives from that single record, so there is nothing to reconcile between systems.

How long does onboarding take?

Honestly: it depends on the state of your records. Onboarding is typically measured in weeks, not months, and we scope the timeline at intake — after we've seen your cap table, distribution history, and fund documents — so the date you get is one we can stand behind.

Do our LPs need wallets or crypto experience?

No. LPs log into a portal with identity-bound access — no crypto experience, no self-managed keys, nothing to install. The permissioned infrastructure runs underneath; your investors see statements, documents, distributions, and K-1s.
