FounderCatalyst delivered both - the process was seamless, and it cost less than a tenth of what I was quoted elsewhere.

In their words
A sample of testimonials from founders, advisors and investors who have worked with us.
“FounderCatalyst took the extremely complicated SEIS Compliance and Certificate process and made it very straightforward for founders. Extra kudos that it’s bundled for free with a funding round!”
“FounderCatalyst has been fantastic - use this service!! We recently raised via CrowdCube and FounderCatalyst was very efficient at sorting out the legal paperwork, which removed all the stress from us. We are a new start-up and they made the legal processes of funding rounds incredibly easy to navigate. They sorted out our advance assurance in record speed. The team is incredibly knowledgeable (not only legal experts but exited founders) and they also have a great community on WhatsApp with other founders. ”
“Strongly recommend this to all SEIS/EIS founders who need to do their legals and raise completed in a simple, straightforward, compliant low cost way. Sam and team go above and beyond.”
“I approached my first funding round as a naive, first time founder with more to learn than I realised. From day 1, the FounderCatalyst team gave their time, knowledge and guidance in abundance. All I can say is that I thank my lucky stars that our paths crossed - I consider myself incredibly fortunate. With FounderCatalyst, you know they genuinely care about the success of the people they work with. They have made the HMRC AA process for SEIS a breeze. They has helped perfect our pitch deck, sanity check our financials and get our ducks in a row for our funding round, as well as give us that all important optimism when things get bumpy. The FounderCatalyst platform gives me and our investors complete confidence in arranging legals. Thank you!”
“The process with FoundersCatalyst was smooth and efficient. Given my inexperience in the startup world, the team held my hand and explained things to me. The WhatsApp group of exceptional founders has been invaluable. I received my SEIS assurance within three weeks.”
“I’d heard that FounderCatalyst’s SEIS advance assurance was lightning quick from another founder, but they’ve excelled themselves with Archive This Ltd. Full advance assurance received from HMRC in less than 3 working hours.”
“Excellent service - comprehensive coverage of a tricky business area. I received huge support as I applied for Advanced Assurance for my Padel Tennis company. With their astute guidance I was able to get all the right documents in place and apply for AA and receive a positive response in less than 48 hours. I would 100% recommend FounderCatalyst to anyone.”
“FounderCatalyst have been amazing, not only did they get the SEIS assurance as promised but the back up and additional services they provide as part of the service are invaluable. The community they create with other founders is also a great source of shared knowledge and support. Couldn’t recommend highly enough, thanks FC!”
“FounderCatalyst is simply brilliant. Not only is the platform powerful & user-friendly; the team have a huge amount of real-world experience and go the extra mile to make your round a success. You'd be mad not to use it!”
