Chris, convertible notes and SAFEs are very commonly used in venture capital and early stage investing. There are plenty of circumstances for which these instruments make good sense, and then also times when they shouldn't be utilized. Of course, specific scenarios could lead to good or bad consequences, whether intended or anticipated, or neither.

In theory, no reason you couldn't use a convertible note or SAFE in the search context, depending on the economic outcome you are trying to achieve; however, they are principally used in a different context.
