“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.
“FoundersCatalyst simplified the complex investment process experience from start to finish. Their platform has everything you need, and when it comes to queries, their team's response time is first class. They simplified my SEIS/EIS Advance Assurance application making everything straightforward and the entire process moved at an impressive pace, letting me focus on business rather than more paperwork. Highly recommended for any founder!”
““Such a supportive network and honest, real-life advice and feedback. Perfect for early stage founders.””
“Sam and his team totally get founders…what FounderCatalyst delivers is not only incredibly good value, but absolutely what every start up and founder needs: brilliant!”
“I had great feedback through the process and received the advance assurance in a record time of 3 days.”
“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.”
“Having spoken with FounderCatalyst some 3-years ago, to get ready to raise with SEIS/EIS assurance done, I was ready to go. Or so I thought! I decided to focus on organic growth to prove the business. 3-years later I'm ready to go for the raise and FounderCatalyst kept their side of deal and have my funding round open and ready to go - no extra money required. Love these guys!!!”
“FounderCatalyst were incredible in helping us close our SEIS round ahead of a tight deadline. They offered great 1-1 support through the entire S/EIS Advance Assurance and fundraise process. I couldn’t recommend Sam and the team more highly to any founders raising investment!”
“They say word-of-mouth is the best kind of marketing, and judging by the people who pop up in every entrepreneur group singing FounderCatalyst’s praises (myself included!), they are smashing it! As first-time founders, there was so much we were nervous about or didn’t fully understand, and FounderCatalyst has consistently made time for us and never laughed at our questions! The founder Sam truly goes above and beyond to share relevant contacts and opportunities for his founders. They handled our entire fundraising journey perfectly and I couldn't have asked for a better partner. 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.”
