Reviewed on 31/03/2023
Pros
Integration was easy. Arranging documents (founders agreements, I.P agreements, board resolutions, SH01 forms etc) are very well explained and easy to complete. Share splits and issuing shares are really quick. [sensitive content hidden] have been amazing with the support offered, great team!
Cons
Nothing as of yet, so far so good.

Really strong and knowledgeable customer support. The advice and expertise is spot on.
Really strong and knowledgeable customer support. The advice and expertise is spot on.
Pros
The ease of contracting and legal documentation with bodies such as HMRC.
Cons
Nothing off the top of my head. I guess some things aren't clear such as the fee - I thought I was paying an all-inclusive fee to cover the distribution of equity only to find that's an additional cost. So I think a bit of clarity between Sales and Account Management over that. But maybe that's the sales tactic to get us over the line. To be fair, even within the basic package I bought, i can still use placeholders such as contracts which outline equity rather than actually issuing it in that moment.

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.

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.

Really positive experience. Is our go-to piece of software for anything to do with fundraising - would highly recommend.
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.

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
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.

Excellent attention by staff, always keeping me updated and responding when they say they will. High quality advice. And unusually friendly attitude from a team that seems to be very joined up and committed.
Pros
Clear and easy to understand the app. Lots of helps, wizards, blogs and videos to support a service that is technical and critical. And supported by great personal service, its a winner.
Cons
Is it a negative to say that the close attention to detail was sometimes a bit excruciating?! Not with legal services!

Pros
Excellent overall service and concept. Very versatile templates that cover a wide range of legal needs from fundraising to employment and advisor agreements. The step-by-step process guidance for fundraising (for example for board and shareholder approval) make it very easy to use. Plus the customer service provided is excellent.
Cons
Some features of contracts are not as flexible as one can make them if drafting from scratch. So for some specific needs, you have to start with the template and then create addendums.

10/10 it has been a seamless process. SeedLegals has saved me loads of time and money, making navigating the legals so easy. Every single person I've had contact with is knowledgeable and helpful.
Pros
Very easy to set up, fantastic UX. The support from staff has been exceptional. SeedLegals have thought of everything, so I don't have to and can focus on growing my business. The blog posts and videos are very informative and free of jargon. This is my first funding round so the expertise and support from SeedLegals has been invaluable.
Cons
Nothing so far. Only limitation I've found was in the deal terms - my [sensitive content] and I have different salaries (he's starting on £0 for first year) so we'd want the option to input individual warranties, not applied to both founders.
