have to say about us
In their words
A sample of testimonials from founders, advisors and investors who have worked with us.
“Helped us close a deal very quickly - no fuss, or costly annual fees. ”
“Sam and the team helped guide us through a slightly more complex situation of gaining EIS advanced assurance for a Delaware registered C-Corp Always very knowledgeable the team were fantastic in guiding us through the whole process - would highly recommend!”
“We founded Giles AI to dramatically accelerate clinical and medical research using secure, cutting-edge, conversational AI. The impact is transformative: a typical 10-year, $1.5bn drug or device development pipeline can be accelerated significantly – getting life-saving innovations to market faster than ever before. With our collaboration with Google, our recent £750K pre-seed raise gives us the runway to scale rapidly - FounderCatalyst were instrumental facilitating the raise, providing expert legal guidance and an incredibly efficient process that let us stay focused on building the future of medical research.”
“Highly recommend. Good platform and superb service, plus a fantastic founders WhatsApp group if you want to be included.”
“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.”
“This was complex to navigate being an overseas entity and close to a non-qualifying trade. We were careful to appoint a company who could guide us through. Right from the off, the line of questioning gave a clear deeper understanding and genuine desire to reach a positive outcome for all. Many calls and emails were taking outside of typical business hours, including over weekends and late evening. I simply can't recommend Sam, Max and the team at FounderCatalyst enough.”
“FounderCatalyst was an excellent choice, we were delighted with the platform throughout our funding round. From term sheet, legals, due diligence to data room, the process was faultless, keeping deal momentum and presenting a professional interface to our investors.”
“We signed up to FC following a recommendation from several founders I met through startup networks. You and your documents are in safe hands - the real bonus is being able to ask loads of questions and get support on so many random things that aren't directly documentation but necessary for a raise (eg how do you write a valuation document, what do you include in your data room, disclosure). You can ask these both from FC and the FC founder community.”
“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.”
