Overview
AlphaLatitude Inc. is an American software company and the developer of OptionsAhoy, an equity-compensation optimization platform. According to its official website, OptionsAhoy is designed for equity holders ranging from startup employees to executives, and it plans tax, hedging, and diversification together across multiple years and market scenarios, producing a month-by-month action plan. The product is currently offered as an invite-only beta, with a request-beta-access flow on the homepage and a separate free tools area at app.optionsahoy.com/results. The company positions OptionsAhoy around a specific problem: most equity holders work with three separate advisors or tools—a CPA who optimizes taxes after the fact, a broker who executes sales, and an advisor who talks about diversification—and almost nobody optimizes those functions together because it is a computationally hard problem. AlphaLatitude's stated answer is a single planning product that jointly optimizes exercise schedules, sell orders, hedging, and lot ordering. The site cites a worked 50,000-share ISO example in which the optimized exercise schedule ends about $286,000 ahead of exercising everything at once, and notes that running the same grant inside a whole portfolio and tax situation can improve the plan further. On the technical side, AlphaLatitude emphasizes verification. The homepage states that the platform has 1,000+ automated tests on the tax and pricing engines, that a failing test blocks the release, and that 14 federal and 16 state worked cases reproduce against independent engines (PSL Tax-Calculator and OpenTaxSolver), with every 2026 federal constant matching IRS Rev. Proc. 2025-32. The tax engine is described as covering federal income tax, AMT, long-term capital gains, NIIT, and 50-state taxes, modeled across multi-year horizons. OptionsAhoy's content also addresses pre-IPO secondary sales, explaining the tax mechanics of company-run tender offers, direct secondaries, and structured liquidity programs, and how the treatment of a sale depends on which shares leave the account. A separate comparison page frames OptionsAhoy against other equity planning tools and services—such as Secfi calculators, Carta and ESO Fund AMT estimators, Equity Simplified, wealth-management offerings like Compound, Harness, and Range, and advisor software like Grantd, Holistiplan, and Gemifi—arguing that products compare when they share an objective, and that OptionsAhoy's objective is planning before commitment. AlphaLatitude Inc. is described in Wikidata as an American software company and developer of OptionsAhoy. The company operates in the United States market and its product is currently in beta. No public information in the supplied evidence identifies its headquarters city, founding year, founders, ownership, or funding status.
History
AlphaLatitude Inc. is an American software company and the developer of OptionsAhoy, an equity-compensation optimization platform. The company is described in Wikidata as an American software company and developer of OptionsAhoy. Its official website presents OptionsAhoy as equity-compensation optimization software that plans tax, hedging, and diversification together, across multiple years and market scenarios, into a month-by-month action plan for equity holders from startup employees to executives. The product is currently in an invite-only beta. The homepage invites visitors to request beta access and to see how it works, and points to a free tools area at app.optionsahoy.com/results. The site states that the tools respect browsing privacy and that the beta is independently verified. AlphaLatitude frames the origin of OptionsAhoy around a gap in the market: most equity holders have three advisors or three tools rather than one—a CPA who optimizes taxes after the fact, a broker who executes sales, and an advisor who talks about diversification—and almost nobody optimizes them together because it is a computationally hard problem. The company says the result is that people exercise ISOs in the wrong year, get blindsided by AMT, and hold concentrated positions too long out of inertia. To illustrate the cost, the site cites a worked 50,000-share ISO example in which the optimized exercise schedule ends about $286,000 ahead of exercising everything at once, and notes that running the grant inside a whole portfolio and tax situation can improve the plan further. The platform's tax engine is described as covering federal income tax, AMT, long-term capital gains, NIIT, and 50-state taxes, modeled across multi-year horizons. On verification, the homepage states that there are 1,000+ automated tests on the tax and pricing engines, that a failing test blocks the release, and that 14 federal and 16 state worked cases reproduce against independent engines (PSL Tax-Calculator and OpenTaxSolver), with every 2026 federal constant matching IRS Rev. Proc. 2025-32. The site also claims that from holdings entered to plan generated takes about 5 minutes. Beyond the core planner, AlphaLatitude publishes educational content on equity-compensation topics. One article explains the tax mechanics of pre-IPO secondary sales, covering company-run tender offers, direct secondaries, and structured liquidity programs, and how the tax treatment of a sale—from long-term capital gains to ordinary income plus payroll taxes—depends on which shares leave the account. Another page compares OptionsAhoy with other equity planning tools and services, including Secfi calculators, Carta and ESO Fund AMT estimators, Equity Simplified, wealth-management offerings such as Compound, Harness, and Range, and advisor software such as Grantd, Holistiplan, and Gemifi. The comparison argues that products compare when they share an objective, and that OptionsAhoy's objective is planning before commitment. The supplied evidence does not identify AlphaLatitude's founding year, founders, headquarters city, ownership, funding, or executive team. The company operates in the United States market and its product is currently in beta.
