X1 checks each capital call against its notice and plans how your family pays it.

When a private fund your family invests in asks for money, it sends a notice called a capital call. X1 reads the notice from your uploads or your Dropbox or Box folder, checks the amount against the notice and shows you the page it came from, works out which account can pay it and still keep the minimum you hold there, and drafts a plan for you to approve.

You send the wire from your bank, the way you do today. The notice, the plan and the payment stay together for your CPA.

One call from the notice to the payment

Here is the same call at each step: what X1 shows you, and what it has done so far. Click a step to see it.

  1. Operating checking can cover the call and still keep the $250,000 Charlotte wants left in it. The tax reserve isn’t touched. The brokerage stays as it is, because in October she decided nothing gets sold to cover a Ridgeway call.

Step 2 of 4: The right account pays, and the tax money isn’t touched

What X1 checks on a call

Each call keeps a work log. Here is the example call’s log, with the word X1 puts beside each step. The family rule line appears only when your family has a rule on record, and the wire lines appear once you approve a plan.

  • The notice opens the call

    Upload the notice, or let it arrive in a Dropbox or Box folder you’ve connected to X1. If X1 can match it to exactly one fund on your record, it opens the call and tells you.
  • When it isn’t sure, it asks

    If X1 can’t tell which fund it’s for, or which of your trusts or companies it’s addressed to, the notice waits for you to say.
  • Each line has a record behind it

    A line shows up in the log only when there’s a record behind it: the notice, a balance, a saved plan, your decision. Each one shows where it came from.

Why the plan says what it says

Open Why on a call and you see what shaped the plan: the notice and the page it came from, the decision your family made in its own words, and any advice from a professional, filed as advice and kept apart from your decisions.

From the notice, page 1

“Amount due: $180,000. Due date: December 21, 2026.”

A decision on the record

Hold the brokerage rebalance until the next Ridgeway call is paid, so nothing is sold to cover it.

What stays with you

  • X1 doesn’t send the wireYou send it from your bank. X1 records the payment when it sees the wire leave a connected account, and you can undo that record.
  • X1 doesn’t verify wire instructionsConfirm the wire instructions with the fund by phone, on a number you already have, before you send. A notice that looks right isn’t proof.
  • X1 doesn’t interpret the fund agreementYour fund’s agreement controls what you owe and when. X1 reads the notice; it doesn’t tell you what the agreement means.
  • What’s left to call needs a statementX1 shows what the fund may still call only when a statement of your unfunded commitment is on record. Without one, it says so.

Questions before you start

What is a capital call?
A capital call is a private fund asking an investor for part of the money the investor already promised it. The notice gives the amount, the due date and where to send it. X1 reads the notice, checks the amount and your cash, and drafts a plan for you to approve. The capital call notice checklist.
Is there capital call software for individual investors and families?
Much of the capital call software on the market is built for the fund managers who send the calls. X1 is built for the family paying them: it reads the notice, checks the amount against it, works out which account pays, and keeps the notice, the plan and the payment together. It comes with membership.
Does X1 pay the capital call?
No. You approve the plan in X1 and send the wire from your bank. X1 does not verify wire instructions, so confirm them with the fund by phone first.
How does X1 know which fund a notice belongs to?
It matches the notice to the fund holdings on your record. When exactly one fund fits, X1 opens the call. When none or more than one fits, or the notice names a trust or company X1 can’t place, the notice waits for you.
Can my CPA see the call?
Yes. Invite your CPA, and you can bring them into the call’s conversation. They see what you choose to share.
