“As a founder building an agentic AI platform for workforce planning in supply chains, I'm always looking for tools that save time and money. FounderCatalyst delivered both - the process was seamless, and it cost less than a tenth of what I was quoted elsewhere. It let us stay focused on growing the business, not buried in fundraising admin.”

In their words
A sample of testimonials from founders, advisors and investors who have worked with us.
“FounderCatalyst is truly a Founder friendly company, both when things go well and unexpectedly. I was dealing with quite an outlier situation with my company. Max, Sam and team did their absolute best to help resolve the situation. I was impressed with their responsiveness and knowledge. There are alternative legal platforms out there, but none that truly holds founder friendliness as a core principle. Highly highly recommend.”


“Founders always need external, expert support, and never more so than in the area of handling HMRC and SEIS/EIS. This is where the big learning curves come from, and you don’t want to get this wrong - it follows you for a long time. The team at FounderCatalyst are wonderfully human, knowledgable, accessible, experienced and focus on helping the Founder - the human. ”


“Excellent product, service, platform and support. Founder Catalyst do a fantastic job of making things simple for the Founders they support. They are very knowledgeable and helpful. They are also extremely cost effective and will not only save you lots of money but also time. I can't recommend highly enough.”


“We started our new company under our old company. Rookie mistake. This meant we fell outside of the timeline for EIS by more than a few years. FounderCatalyst worked with us on an appeal. Our new company was different to our old one. We had invested into it's development and were turning revenue. We got the thumbs up from HMRC. Was a happy day.”


“We completed our first raise with FC and the process was simple, effective and a bargain. They combine excellent advice and an extremely responsive support team, which is so important as even though the process is clear and well explained, you do not want to make mistakes! Emma from their team has been amazing, helping me get in a time sensitive submission ahead of the tax deadline, including helping me on a Saturday in Twixtmas! Thank you very much!”


“Sam's a superstar This wasn't the easiest of raises for a number of reasons, but Sam was incredibly responsive and helpful - which is exactly what we needed. Thanks team!”


“Such a super-easy to use platform. Opened and closed a round and received the funds within 48-hours! Also, the business owner Sam is knowledgeable and supportive in other areas such as applications for SEIS/ EIS and the cost is lower than any other alternative - I checked!”


“The FounderCatalyst platform streamlined our fundraising process, and the team helped us navigate a number of complexities to complete our funding round swiftly. We are now using the amazing ‘agile’ funding feature to top up the previous round over the next few months as and when”


“As a first time, solo founder, Sam has been hugely helpful helping me navigate the investment ecosystem.”
