“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.”

“The FounderCatalyst team turned my advance assurance application around in just 2 working days and we had a positive response back from HMRC within a week. Their assistance with preparing my Investors Deck and forecast model was invaluable. We highly recommend using FounderCatalyst to other founders!”
“We submitted our advance assurance using FounderCatalyst 28th of May 2024 and had a positive response back by 10am on the 30th. Amazing!”
“I had little knowledge of the legal processes of raising investment. Our CCO recommended FounderCatalyst and we have both been very glad we chose this route. The FounderCatalyst team led us through the system personally and the online portal, including electronic document signing, was fantastic.”
“FounderCatalyst offer such an efficient, clear, and helpful process. They make all the clunky bits feel effortless with your help and bounty of free resources. Very grateful for FounderCatalyst.”
“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!”
“My experience of FounderCatalyst has been amazing. Great value for money, instant service, professional and personal. I highly recommend Sam and his team.”
“We recently used FounderCatalyst to support our SEIS application, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. Their communication was consistently clear, fast, and incredibly helpful — every question we had was answered promptly and with real expertise. The whole process felt streamlined and stress-free thanks to their guidance. I would happily recommend FounderCatalyst to anyone preparing an SEIS application. Their professionalism, responsiveness, and deep understanding of the process make them an outstanding partner for any startup navigating early-stage investment.”
