In their words
A sample of testimonials from founders, advisors and investors who have worked with us.
“The whole team is absolutely amazing !! Right from Sam to Emma who helped us with our application - are a delight to work with and know exactly what they are doing. I was really nervous about the EIS, but in the end the whole process was super easy thanks to FC.”
“We've been using FC since we founded our company in January 2024. They secured our SEIS approval from HMRC and have helped us close two investment rounds; Pre-Seed and an agile investment round. We were new to this and we'd have been lost with FC. Not just the platform itself, but Sam, Max, Andy and the team who are always there for us, for our questions, and for our suggestions on improvements. They're the absolute best and I recommend them to every new startup founder I meet; no referral commissions needed, they're just that good.”
“Very helpful, super flexible and reasonably priced. Just what any founder could wish for. Highly recommend.”
“My experience of FounderCatalyst has been amazing. Great value for money, instant service, professional and personal. I highly recommend Sam and his team.”
“I was super impressed: advance assurance submitted 03/06/24 and a positive response from HMRC the very next day”
“FounderCatalyst were really responsive when we used them for our raise and always had clear guidance - even when we were asking them things that were clearly documented on their website :-). We chose them because their price was incredibly reasonable, and I'm glad to say the service exceeded our expectations at that price point.”
“FounderCatalyst helped with a set of 13x individual queries from HMRC on a advance assurance submission we originally completed ourselves. They wrote a professional response letter answering the queries and HMRC replied with confirmation of advance assurance in just a few hours.”
“Sam and the team helped guide us through a slightly more complex situation of gaining EIS advanced assurance for a Delaware registered C-Corp Always very knowledgeable the team were fantastic in guiding us through the whole process - would highly recommend!”
“Sam and team provide a faultless service. I've been incredibly impressed with the rapid response time of any questions I send, and the level of detail and reassurance provided to make sure we fully understand the process. We flew through the HMRC (S)EIS Advance Assurance process: submitting it just before 5pm on a Monday, and having received confirmation of it by 1:30pm the next day! Can't get much better than that. Really very happy to have chosen FounderCatalyst.”
