# Deploy a PumpCorp for ACE

**ACE** (Asset Conversion to Equity) lets a token community convert into equity. It is powered by the **`PumpCorpFactory`** ([`src/PumpCorpFactory.sol`](https://github.com/MetaLex-Tech/cybercorps-contracts/blob/develop/src/PumpCorpFactory.sol)) and an ACE-configured SAFE extension. The live product is [ace.metalex.tech](https://ace.metalex.tech).

## When to use this guide

You are an issuer running an ACE-style offering: a structured, typically Regulation S offering open to non-US persons, where investors arrive holding tokens and leave holding ACE SAFEs.

## Approach

`PumpCorpFactory` builds on the same primitives as `CyberCorpFactory`: it deploys a cyberCORP suite configured for an ACE offering and creates the round. The flow then mirrors a standard cyberRAISE round:

1. Deploy the PumpCorp through `PumpCorpFactory`, supplying the offering parameters (pricing, cap, the agreement template, and a non-US / zkPassport `ICondition` for Regulation S gating).
2. Investors submit EOIs and are allocated, exactly as in [Run a cyberRAISE round](/metalex-docs/protocol-tutorials/run-a-cyberraise-round.md).
3. On allocation, each investor receives an ACE SAFE cyberCERT (its security series is `SecuritySeries.ACE`).

> `PumpCorpFactory`'s exact constructor and `deploy*` parameters are not reproduced here — consult the contract source, which is the authoritative reference for the current ACE deployment shape.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://gabriel-j-shapiro.gitbook.io/metalex-docs/protocol-how-to-guides/deploy-pumpcorp-ace.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
