“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.”

have to say about us
In their words
A sample of testimonials from founders, advisors and investors who have worked with us.
“Thanks to Sam and Max for getting us through this complex process in a relatively straightforward and cost-effective way. When we ran into a big hiccup they were there for us and and had the adaptability to help get us over the line.”
“This platform helped more that i could have thought, from guiding me through my pre-seed raise, issuing the documents, keeping me accountable for what i needed to do...'You don't know what you don't know', and in a founder journey especially when dealing with legal and important paperwork this can fill you with fear. Luckily FC guides you through it all. Their community is also fab and so is their pricing.”
““Such a supportive network and honest, real-life advice and feedback. Perfect for early stage founders.””
“I’ve been told by another founder that SEIS / EIS advance assurance could take months – FounderCatalyst submitted our advance assurance on the 3rd of October 2023 and we received a positive response in just 24 hours”
“We submitted our advance assurance using FounderCatalyst 28th of May 2024 and had a positive response back by 10am on the 30th. Amazing!”
“Sam Simpson and FounderCatalyst are highly reliable. I know many founders who rate Sam and he has been a great asset to AIS as facilitator. As a founder now, I rely on Sam’s expertise - helping me through my startup journey.”
“FounderCatalyst is the best platform on the market to help early-stage founders with their fundraising legals. Not only is the platform fantastic, the team, especially Sam, have been absolutely instrumental in helping us close our recent funding round. I can honestly say that without FounderCatalyst and Sam by our side, we wouldn't have been able to succeed in our fundraising efforts.”
“I am a distiller of award-winning gins that are stocked in places like Harrods, but I know little about the funding paperwork and requirements. FC helped me to efficiently produce my funding paperwork in 2 days and I got SEIS advance assurance in less than two weeks.”
“The best investment we made was using FounderCatalyst for the legal work. It's really good value, the platform was easy to use and we had amazing support throughout from their CEO, Sam Simpson. I would absolutely recommend it to all founders!”
