have to say about us
In their words
A sample of testimonials from founders, advisors and investors who have worked with us.
“Sam and the team at FounderCatalyst go above and beyond to aid founders through the SEIS process to accreditation. Unlike their competitors, they charge a fixed fee, no recurring fee, and offer a tremendous peer-to-peer community, which has been invaluable in helping me build my team. It is time for change. Step away from household brands and try FounderCatalyst.”
“FounderCatalyst could not have been more helpful and supportive throughout our SEIS process.They worked diligently to help us get advance assurance much faster than we thought was possible. They went above and beyond the basic advance assurance process, and played a crucial role in helping us to secure funding. I can not recommend FounderCatalyst enough.”
“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.”
“Our EIS time limit had expired and were looking for funding outside the EIS scheme. FounderCatalyst were really interested in the challenge and it was clear from our early conversations that they knew the intricacies of the various options. They identified KIC as a potential alternative for us and provided clear instructions and hands-on support with our KIC advance assurance submission. We received advance assurance within two weeks of our submission. I have no hesitation in recommending them to others.”
“It was a pleasure working with FounderCatalyst. As of the first meeting, Sam was very involved in the whole process and made it very easy for us to get us investor ready faster than we could have ever imagined. We can only recommend the service and are about to use his services soon again.”
“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.”
“Sam and his team are the real deal, they know what they are talking about and offer the best value in town. I can confidently say this having wasted money and been disappointed with another firm (SL) previously.”
“The FounderCatalyst the platform is brilliant. I was able to login, complete the questions and get to a draft Term sheet in record time. Excellent design.”
“Excellent service!!! This was my first time raising funds and using SEIS & EIS. I had my advance assurance approved within 10days without any issues! FounderCatalyst made the process so much easier. The team are always on hand to ask any questions and support. I am so grateful to Sam, Max, Emma and the rest of the team, they really do care and go above and beyond to help! Thank you FC!”
