“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.”

have to say about us
In their words
A sample of testimonials from founders, advisors and investors who have worked with us.
“My initial funding round has involved a foreign investor with stringent compliance procedures - this has resulted in lots of back and forth. The FounderCatalyst team were absolutely amazing going above and beyond the support with platform and explanation of various documents. They were always available to hold our hand to support with all the requirements and the custom inputs required to ensure our documents complied with the needs of the foreign investor. This was really no easy feat!!! I cannot thank the FC team enough as well as the supportive FC community for getting us through this.”
“We recently used FounderCatalyst to support our SEIS application, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. Their communication was consistently clear, fast, and incredibly helpful — every question we had was answered promptly and with real expertise. The whole process felt streamlined and stress-free thanks to their guidance. I would happily recommend FounderCatalyst to anyone preparing an SEIS application. Their professionalism, responsiveness, and deep understanding of the process make them an outstanding partner for any startup navigating early-stage investment.”
“We were referred to FounderCatalyst and told that they were good, but our advance assurance submission received a positive response from HMRC in 25 hours – that is better than good!”
“FounderCatalyst has been fantastic - use this service!! We recently raised via CrowdCube and FounderCatalyst was very efficient at sorting out the legal paperwork, which removed all the stress from us. We are a new start-up and they made the legal processes of funding rounds incredibly easy to navigate. They sorted out our advance assurance in record speed. The team is incredibly knowledgeable (not only legal experts but exited founders) and they also have a great community on WhatsApp with other founders. ”
“The FounderCatalyst team were on hand every step of the way during the funding round. Unlimited support and entirely responsive. This really helped us closed the funding round swiftly.”
“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!”
“Sam was so helpful with my SEIS/EIS application, I would definitely recommend FounderCatalyst. Everything was done super quickly which was great for me as I had had imminent investor conversations that depended on my advanced assurance”
“Really helpful team who helped us secure our EIS advance assurance in super quick time. Very competitively priced too - thanks!”
“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.”
