“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.”

What founders say

In their words

A sample of testimonials from founders, advisors and investors who have worked with us.

“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!!”

“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?! ”

“FounderCatalyst was introduced to me by a former colleague whilst I was exploring personal investment opportunities in companies already using the FC platform. After a briefing with Sam Simpson, I decided to use the platform for my own start-up Soul Padel. The S/EIS process couldn’t have been easier and simpler to understand and Sam’s hands-on guidance was much appreciated throughout. We then launched our SEIS round with FounderCatalyst and being a first time founder, it was enormously helpful to have the structured guides, articles and the hugely beneficial community of founders to tap into. Not only that but the ecosystem of professionals associated with the FC platform enabled me to seek cost effective advice early. We recently closed our first round after securing investment from a single HNW individual, without the use of costly lawyers or lengthy complex negotiations. I can’t recommend FounderCatalyst highly enough. If you are looking to start your own business and raise investment, you need to start your process with FounderCatalyst. It’s much much cheaper than what you’ll find elsewhere but the best thing is, Sam as founder will be your friend, guide and mentor throughout. Nowhere else gives you that level of service. It’s so good, I’ve also invested in FounderCatalyst platform users because I know their governance and structure is sound and very well put together. It’s more than just a service, it’s a community.”

“I am a distiller of award-winning gins that are stocked in places like Harrods, but I know little about the funding paperwork and requirements.  FC helped me to efficiently produce my funding paperwork in 2 days and I got SEIS advance assurance in less than two weeks.”

“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.”

“We just raised our first seed round and quite frankly couldn’t have done it without FounderCatalyst. Sam Simpson is the kindest most patient founder I have ever met. The website is so easy to use (and even if you have a question it’s answered in minutes). A very reasonably priced service that I would highly recommend to anyone looking to raise.”

“Just closed my round on FounderCatalyst - super simple and having the FC team on hand for any question (even the silly ones) was brilliant. Fixed fee is a game changer vs the competition, allowing you to keep more of the funds you raise for getting going with your business.”
