FAQs

Find out more about how to run your deal on SeedLegals


  • What is SeedLegals?

    SeedLegals is the leading legaltech platform where founders and investors come to close a funding round. You and the founder agree the terms of your investment deal, select them on the platform and we build all the commercial and legal docs instantly.

    Our intuitive workflow and guide text make every step simple, and our customer support team are close at hand if you or your investee need any further support.

    Quick intro to SeedLegals

    • We launched in April 2017
    • In April 2019, we closed a ÂŁ3M Series A deal with Index Ventures as the lead investor (on SeedLegals of course)
    • Based in Holborn, we’re 152 people and growing fast
    • The tax return for the accounting period of your R&D claim
    • We’re now the largest closer of funding rounds in the UK (closing around 1-2 rounds every day)
    • We also help companies do their SEIS/EIS Advance Assurance and Compliance. In fact, around 1 in 6 of all SEIS/EIS applications in the UK come through SeedLegals
    • 35,000+ startups and 25,000+ investors use SeedLegals
    • We’re active in the UK, France, Hong Kong, Singapore, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland
  • What does using SeedLegals cost me for the round?

    Investors get a discount on the prices shown on our pricing page. No double fees for investee and investor mean cutting costs in half. To talk to our team about how much you’ll pay for your round or rounds, please get in touch.
  • Does SeedLegals have actual lawyers?

    Yes! We’re not a law firm, but our extremely experienced legal team creates and reviews all the documentation available at SeedLegals. They’re also on-hand to assist with wording, deal points or unforeseen complications as and when needed.

    We do separately offer a funding round advisory service for larger, more complex rounds. This gives you a bank of hours with a qualified lawyer who can give you specific legal advice on your round. Get in touch at [email protected] to see if your round is eligible.
  • Does SeedLegals have professional indemnity insurance?

    Yes. PII covers claims up to ÂŁ2 million.
  • Do you only do seed deals?

    No - our automated workflows speed up the back and forth in any funding round. More seed deals take place in the UK than later stage rounds, and our customer data reflects that. But we also support many larger rounds of ÂŁ1M+ and Series A and beyond.
  • Do you just have templates?

    Our documents are based on BVCA standard model documents, and have been comprehensively reviewed by literally thousands of lawyers and investors. We’ve refined these further to create the popular UK standard. Our documents must be the most reviewed of any!

    Although we start with these templates, we know that larger rounds and VCs often require certain provisions and specific wording. Wherever possible, we accommodate these changes. But because we are committed to making funding rounds more economical (in time and money) through automation, we try to avoid in-depth cosmetic changes without good reason.

    Many leading VCs have their one-click wording and terms already coded into our platform, which makes it super easy for the founder and investor from the start. Get in touch if you would like yours to be added.
  • Which jurisdictions do you support for funding rounds?

    We currently support the UK, France, Hong Kong, Singapore, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.
  • How can I use SeedLegals as an investor?

    If you’re keen to save yourself - and your investees - time and money when drafting and reviewing legal documents, SeedLegals is the place to do your deal.

    Once you’ve agreed terms with your new investee, simply ask them to use SeedLegals for the round, introduce them to a member of the team to get them set up and create the Term Sheet for your deal. Many VC investors manage their whole portfolio of investment deals through SeedLegals so get in touch to discuss how we can help.
