have to say about us
In their words
A sample of testimonials from founders, advisors and investors who have worked with us.
“Getting through a funding round can be a stressful time but Sam, Max and the FounderCatalyst team were a constant source of advice, support and help. It means a lot when you know they’ve got your back. Having completed 2 previous rounds using a different approach, the FounderCatalyst route has been the best experience by a distance.”
“This is the first time we have raised investment for Trove. It can be daunting to keep on top of all of the requirements and documentation. We are so happy to have the support of FounderCatalyst - their technology is user friendly for both founders and investors. Moreover the team are so responsive in supporting any questions. It is clear they understand founder needs having been successful entrepreneurs themselves. We would highly recommend FounderCatalyst and look forward to working together on future funding rounds.”
“The process was incredibly easy, and it makes sense why this service exists for start-ups. I would highly recommend FounderCatalyst to anyone considering raising money and needing SEIS/EIS advanced assurance. Whilst it’s unnecessary because the platform is so slick and automated, Sam and the team are friendly and always available to help if investors have any questions. 10/10 service!!”
“Agile is sliiiick!”
“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!”
“Thank you to FounderCatalyst for making Investment easy and guiding us through all the legal steps required and answering all our queries so quickly. If you are a founder looking for SEIS and EIS approval, looking to understand where to find investors, or simply need support with the legal side of investment FounderCatalyst are the team to talk too.”
“I’ve been using FounderCatalyst since July, and as a first-time founder the difference has been genuinely meaningful. My first conversation with Max and immediately felt different. It wasn’t a sales call. It was human, thoughtful, and grounded in real understanding. I felt heard. There was empathy and expertise, which is rare when you’re navigating something as unfamiliar as SEIS for the first time. I needed hands-on support to set up SEIS, and the whole process was incredibly smooth. The guidance was clear, practical, and seamless from start to finish. No hidden costs, no surprises. That clarity, combined with the quality of the conversations, is what turned me into a very happy customer early on. In the 7 months since, FounderCatalyst has never let me down. Questions are answered quickly, the resources are genuinely useful, and the seminars are well thought through. But what really stands out is the community. The WhatsApp group is exceptional: founders sharing candid experiences, advice, and lessons without ego. Sam is consistently present and on top of things, and this is a safe space, both supportive and practical. FounderCatalyst, and the community around it, has become a key pillar of my startup journey. The learning, the empathy, and the steady support from Sam and the wider group have been invaluable. As a founder, that kind of environment makes a real difference.”
“We have used FounderCatalyst to close two funding rounds, their whole team has been incredibly helpful. The SEIS advance assurance process was incredibly slick and the funding dashboard makes it easy to track which documents investors have signed. Their customer service has been unmatched with support every step of the way to answer any questions. Finally, our raise cost less than a 3rd of the price of their competition - amazing value!”
“Sam and the team at FounderCatalyst are the best in the business. From taking us smoothly (and speedily!) through the complicated SEIS/EIS advance assurance process and providing ongoing support, to creating an incredible and extremely supportive community for like minded founders going through the same process, I can’t recommend FC highly enough!”
