Successful SEIS Advanced Assurance application
Reviewed on 14/04/2023
Very good.
Very good.
Pros
Quick responses from customer support and proper advice.
Cons
Some times incosistent responses among different representatives from customer support. Some avoid saying more about tax related questions while others do say more, which is helpful. It looks like there's always someone knowing more than the rest, and it would be good to always talk to that person.I would like to have more resources to understand how companies should proceed with a Delaware flip and the equity related matters. The new portal for investors seems to me to be placing Seedlegals in a position of conflict of interest. Can we still be claiming that seedlegals are our lawyers, if they are also our investor's lawyers?

My SeedLegals Team Rule the Entrepreneurial Kingdom

EMI share options, cap table, SeedFasts, Funding rounds. I am pretty lost with it all to tell the truth and still only just learning what a cap table is, but had it not been for SeedLegals and their team I would still be Googling 'how to get money for your dreams'. Here you guys are making it happen. The main thing that excites me about the platform is having a visual cap table and everything in one place. I can't imagine what a cobweb of Excel drafts, missing signed copies and badly named folders I would have created by now in our server!
Pros
Team, team, team! The product is great but it's the team that really make it fly. I've felt like they always have my best interests at heart while going through the process, setting up all these 'scary' agreements and document which are enough to give anyone indigestion. They were really gunning to help me get the best deal out of the situation for my company, that at times I felt like I was me that was letting the team down if I wasn't being ambitious enough with my final negotiations :)Great support, always smiling, always helpful. Thank you . Special thanks to [sensitive content hidden] who have carried us through this particularly challenging financial close.
Cons
Some way of better inter-team/expert communication would be good. We'd get advice from one team, say Option Pool setup then come back to the Round Closing Team only to find that, whilst that advice might be best for most scenarios, in our particular scenario it might not be - so round we would go again between the teams back and forth.

The biggest benefit has been the direct support from Seedlegals staff. The team that support with S-EIS application have been fantastic and on hand every step of the way and this type of support has been across the various facets of the capital raise experience.
Pros
I like the interface and having access to more things than I knew that I needed.
Cons
It can be difficult to intuitively know how to navigate the platform and understand what you need to do unless you have support of seedlegals staff.

Excellent.
Excellent.
Pros
True product market fit. It's become essential to our operations as a start up. Frankly I have no idea how founders did it beforehand.. Amazing support, great product, super reasonably priced. You pay for what you need. [sensitive content hidden] in particular have been amazing.
Cons
Only thing would be speed of response on the chat. Typically asking questions you need quick turnarounds and sometimes responses are bounced around the team.

Really very good. I've done lots of funding deals over my career and SeedLegals really does make it all so much simpler and smoother. I really can't say enough about the team. And the price is right too, so what more could you want.
Pros
SeedLegals makes the process super simple, whichever flavour of funding you're doing. But I'd say that the platform is even eclipsed by the superb team that helps you through the deal. Couldn't be more positive about them.
Cons
No real cons. A niggle on usability here and there but if you're in the system regularly you get used to them and the very responsive and knowledgeable team is there to help so it's all good.

Pros
Product is easy to use, and makes fundraising incredibly efficient. Great value for money compared to alternative solutions.
Cons
It'd be useful if the product automatically updated the minimum PPS on the Instant Investment Agreement. However, [sensitive content hidden] was brilliant help and worked out of hours to provide a great service.

We were looking to close an investment round within a week and a half. Our lawyer we had been working with was unable to complete the funding round with us due to unforeseen circumstances. Within an hour I was set up on SeedLegals and working with [sensitive content hidden] to ensure we had everything in place in order to meet the deadline. This was our first investment round and therefore we were cautious and wanting to ensure that we were not committing to anything that may hinder the company in the future. SeedLegals explained the overall process and aided in last minute negotiations of terms.
Pros
Working to a very tight deadline for our first funding round our point of contact, [sensitive content hidden], was able to answer all of my questions and put at ease concerns, explain certain terms and the implications of them. He was also able to provide insight on what was industry norm.
Cons
Some lack of flexibility in being able to add free text in certain sections.

the funding documentation services is comprehensive and all what an entrepreneur requires at the stage of starting up a business
Pros
the knowledge of the technical team is impressive
Cons
- The fact that there is one person managing the relationship who is not technical is sometimes making the communication less efficient than its expected to be.- for future rounds (and once the amounts raised become much more significant), the fees might become too high for the level of services provided.

Advanced Assurance Process
Reviewed on 11/03/2023
Pros
SeedLegals delivered brilliant customer service, a simple to use and efficient digital platform for submitting all our advanced assurance documentation, a fast and thorough internal review process ahead of sending to HMRC and their price point was a quarter of the other company I spoke with. The end to end process was very smooth. Our application was approved first time and they were proactive in making sure we hit our short deadline. Namely, our account manager [sensitive content hidden], really support any questions I had and when we sent an SOS the subject matter expert [sensitive content hidden] was happy to jump on a call to make sure we had all the clarity we needed. I really enjoyed working with them, and would recommend the service to any other Founders.
Cons
Some of the feedback SeedLegals gave us in written format was slightly confusing. We ended up jumping on a call to discuss with the subject matter expert and it was incredibly helpful. To have a call with this person sooner, would have definitely helped my understanding and avoided some mistakes. Also it would have been great to receive a template of the cover letter sooner and an example application to read before we pulled together ours - this was the first Advanced Assurance process we had done, so all actual examples are so helpful. Also when I tried to call the office outside of our scheduled time, it was harder to reach my contact directly.

Pros
Customer Service is great, [sensitive content hidden] has jumped on calls with me with no notice and walked me through, step-by-step complex processes. I will remain with seedlegals for this reason.
Cons
It's expensive for start-ups, having to pay upfront to unlock seedfast agreements isn't the best business model IMO

SeedLegals for Pre-seed startup
Reviewed on 08/03/2023
Very good.
Very good.
Pros
Customer service. SeedLegals have a great team, everyone is very efficient and helpful.
Cons
The one thing I would improve is providing a repository of all calculations used. For example, with the ASA agreements the calculations are shown on the cap table but they're not explained. ASA agreements can vary in their calculations so it's hard to reconcile online materials vs SeedLegals platform when the SeedLegals platform doesn't explain their calculations. They're simple calculations but an explanation of what and why would be helpful! Fortunately the team at SeedLegals helped me but I feel it's something that could be added in so I don't need to utilize the team's time.

I approached Seedlegals to help with SEIS investment applications. Before then we were struggling with the application ourselves. It seems that a certain nuance is needed to deal with the HMRC that their materials do not prepare you for. What makes Seedlegals fantastic and worth your time is that in an era of algorithms and software being used to replace human interaction, Seedlegals absolutely assigns you qualified specialists. I was dealing with 3 people all who familiarised themselves with my project and and contributed . What is great about that is that when one person becomes busy others can help pick up the slack.[sensitive content hidden] , worked tirelessly over what must have been 4 months to ensure we could submit the applications even over the Christmas period. They were regularly chasing me for information. I was receiving emails at 8pm on weekdays! They had competency d extensive knowledge in the tasks required and seem to me to be the perfect team. I cannot give this team high enough praise. I cannot.So I have filled out this review in the hopes it will give them all the recognition they deserve.
Pros
It’s ease of use, quite comprehensive, it featured no bugs that I could see. Design was sleek and it was practical .
Cons
No features that I came across were not useful.

Seedlegals for seed funding round and S/EIS compliance
Reviewed on 11/01/2023
Pros
I recently completed my funding round on the SeedLegals platform. Prior to this, I used the platform to register for S/EIS Advanced Assurance. In both cases the process was simple, the platform is so easy to navigate and the customer service was exceptional. Specifically [SENSITIVE CONTENT] who I worked closely with for both were a fantastic support and help. [SENSITIVE CONTENT] also assisted throughout, so shout out to them!
Cons
It was fairly expensive however this was outweighed by the value and speed we were able to complete the process due to the easy to understand platform.
