Case study

£2.8M raised for just £1,450

And higher rated than competitors, according to Trustpilot.

“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.

“We're a startup that has been 25 years in the making. I was definitely sceptical that we'd get EIS so hats off to you, FounderCatalyst. EIS Condition B...Who knew?! ”

“Having EIS assurance has made all the difference to our raise and working with Sam and FounderCatalyst was key to us securing that. The readiness of the team to answer our questions has made us feel truly supported as we navigate the fundraising journey.”

“Swift is an understatement: I joined the FounderCatalyst platform at 5pm and 4 hours later my pitch deck & forecast had been reviewed and my SEIS advance assurance was with HMRC.”

“I consider myself fortunate to be introduced to FounderCatalyst prior to our fundraise in October 2022. Having never raised funds before, working with FounderCatalyst was a perfect fit, the in-house expertise on SEIS/EIS was worth the fee alone coupled with the excellent easy-to-use platform and on-tap advice was great. In addition, a 'bonus' feature is being part of the FounderCatalyst group on WhatsApp which is a thriving community of fellow founders that share knowledge, experience, and general advice. A great platform, a great team, and a great community, highly recommended.”

“Thanks to Sam and Max for getting us through this complex process in a relatively straightforward and cost-effective way. When we ran into a big hiccup they were there for us and and had the adaptability to help get us over the line.”

“FounderCatalyst were first class from start to finish. The help provided in navigating the minefield of SEIS/EIS advance assurance and fundraising legal documentation has been invaluable. They never tired of answered my questions enabling a smooth process for us founders and our investors in as far afield as Australia. I cannot recommend them highly enough.”

“Best decision we made as founders was switching to FounderCatalyst. Wasted a load of money with Seed Legals originally. Advice from some junior guys there vs Sam (a multiple exited founder and investor himself) doesn’t even compare. Sam had to spent a lot of time unpicking bad advice we had previously but did so with minimum fuss and no extra cost. Can’t recommend 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.”

“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.”
