Chose FC over Vestd & SeedLegals
How Lee Curtis, founder of Legal Engine, compared all three platforms and chose FounderCatalyst for direct, no-nonsense advice and outstanding service.
“Ronseal for fund raises — they do what they say on the tin! Chose FounderCatalyst for our first fundraise over Vestd and SeedLegals after conversations with all three. Reason for choosing — Sam. Direct, no nonsense advice from someone who has been there and done it. Service once we were onboard did not disappoint. Clear guidance and instructions with questions answered quickly and comprehensively. No hesitation in recommending to other founders.”
Why founders switch from SeedLegals
Here's what makes FounderCatalyst the better choice for UK startups raising investment.
Truly fixed fee (and cheaper)
SeedLegals scales pricing with your raise - Flex credits of £2,500 for £250k and £4,500 for £500k, on top of their £1,199 a year membership. FounderCatalyst charges a fixed £1,450 regardless of amount raised.
SEIS/EIS advance assurance included
SeedLegals charge £499, and their membership covers one advance assurance or compliance, not both. With FounderCatalyst, it's included for free.
SEIS/EIS compliance & certificates included
Post-round SEIS/EIS compliance and investor certificates are free. SeedLegals charge from £599.
