Meet the SeedLegals membership plans. They’re designed to grow with you, and be easy to start and simple to scale when you’re ready.

These three plans give you the tools to manage your day-to-day legals and get investment-ready, the flexibility to raise small top-ups or larger rounds, and everything you need to reward your team as you grow.

Everything sits in three clear categories: **Access**, **Funding** and **Options**.

- **Access** gives you the key documents, workflows and support you rely on every day. And it’s easy to bolt on extra services or buy a funding package when you need it.
- **Funding** is built for founders preparing to raise, with exceptional fundraising support, ways to connect with investors and exclusive deals and discounts on our fundraising services.
- **Options** gives you everything you need to reward and retain your team with equity.

## Access Pay-as-you-go to run your company and get ready to raise

Access is the plan that gets your foundations in place – the legal documents and support you need before and after you start raising. Use it to hire your team, stay organised, keep your cap table accurate and run your board. And when you’re ready, you can bolt on any extra services you need or add Flex credits to raise early angel investment.

Here’s what you get on Access (£79 +VAT / month or £649 + VAT / year):

- Create and sign [essential contracts and policies](https://seedlegals.com/legal-documents/)
- Hire and manage your team with [employment and contractor agreements](https://seedlegals.com/start/team-agreements/)
- Track ownership with an always-up-to-date [cap table](https://seedlegals.com/start/cap-table/)
- [Run your board](https://seedlegals.com/board-management/) with agendas, minutes and filings
- Share your [pitch](https://seedlegals.com/raise/pitch/) and track investor interest in a secure data room
- [Create custom folders](https://seedlegals.com/resources/my-documents-updates/) , share documents selectively and get them signed
- [Get exclusive deals and discounts from partners](https://seedlegals.com/marketplace/)

You can pay **monthly**, or choose **an annual plan to save over 30%** compared to paying month to month.

With Access, you get the essentials covered. And when something specific comes up, you can add extra services whenever you need them.

Tap into specialist support as your company grows:

- [SEIS/EIS Advance Assurance](https://seedlegals.com/start/seis-eis/) to get investor-ready
- **Individual investment agreements**or [Flex credits](#flex) when you’re ready to raise
- [R&D tax relief](https://seedlegals.com/grow/rd-tax-credit-claim/) to bring more capital back into the business
- [Expert legal support](https://seedlegals.com/advisory/general-counsel/) – a 10-hour package for commercial or employment advice

**Perks to help you grow faster**  
   
 All SeedLegals plans unlock £45k+ in founder perks handpicked from the SeedLegals community to help you scale. Save on essentials across HR, accounting, banking, office space and more.

## Funding Get investor-ready, stand out to investors and raise with confidence

Raising investment with SeedLegals covers so much more than just the legal documents you need to formalise the raise. You need the right tax reliefs in place, a clear fundraising strategy, support when questions come up and opportunities to connect with investors.

That’s what Funding is designed for.

For a fixed annual subscription, you get hands-on fundraising support, discounts on the services you’ll use during your raise and a growing set of tools and opportunities designed to help you raise faster.

Funding (£1,199 + VAT/year) includes:

- one free [SEIS/EIS Advance Assurance](https://seedlegals.com/start/seis-eis/) or [Compliance](https://seedlegals.com/start/seis-eis/) each year
- discounted Flex credits across [SeedFASTs](https://seedlegals.com/raise/raise-before-a-round/) , [funding rounds](https://seedlegals.com/raise/raise-a-round/) and [Instant Investment](https://seedlegals.com/raise/raise-before-a-round/)
- an experienced funding round expert to help guide your raise
- support from your dedicated account manager and priority platform support
- priority access to SeedLegals events and our founder WhatsApp community
- a £100 discount on [SeedLegals Boost](https://seedlegals.com/raise/boost/) to help you reach investors and accelerate your raise
- discount on starting your [R&D claim](https://seedlegals.com/grow/rd-tax-credit-claim/)
- plus, all the day-to-day tools included in Access

**Simplified Funding plan with more support and savings**  
   
 You might have seen an older version of the Funding plan, which split into three tiers: Start, Raise and Scale. We've consolidated those tiers into a simpler, singular version – and added loads more value through discounts and extra support.   
   
 If you've previously bought one of the Start, Raise or Scale plans, check out the FAQs below to see what this means for you.

### Hands-on help from people who know fundraising inside out

Every Funding plan also gives you access to the people and support that help founders raise with confidence.

You’ll get a dedicated **account manager** as your main point of contact. They’ll be on hand to keep everything running smoothly and to help you make progress at every stage. Each Funding plan also includes a **quarterly strategy review**, where you and your account manager can review where you are, discuss what’s coming up and make sure you’re set up for your next steps.

You’ll also get **priority fundraising support** from the team whenever you need it – answering your questions, helping you navigate your raise and making sure you’re using your Flex credits in the way that works best for you.

On top of that support, you’ll also join the wider **SeedLegals founder community**, with events, masterclasses, webinars and our founder WhatsApp group. It’s a whole ecosystem of informal support to help you meet investors, build momentum and grow faster.

Funding and Options members also get exclusive access to our **AI assistant**, Lawrence – a smart companion built into the SeedLegals platform. It can read and summarise your documents, answer questions in context and help you work through tasks more efficiently. It’s there to make things quicker and easier, not to replace the human support you get on these plans. It’s just an extra layer of help alongside your team.

### A quick recap: how Flex works

Flex is our pricing model for agile fundraising. Instead of paying separately for each [SeedFAST](https://seedlegals.com/raise/raise-before-a-round/)
, [round](https://seedlegals.com/raise/raise-a-round/)
 or [top-up](https://seedlegals.com/raise/top-up-a-round/)
, you buy a bundle of Flex credits and spend them however you like – raising gradually, switching strategy or adding investors as you go.

Choose Flex to:

- **Fix your fundraising costs** upfront for clearer, more predictable budgeting
- **Raise at your own pace**, without one-off fees slowing things down
- **Bring in small investors** without paying extra per person
- **Mix SeedFASTs and rounds** without additional charges
- **Smooth out the whole fundraising process**, from first cheques to final close
- **Save money** with a sliding-scale price that gets cheaper the more you raise
- **Get Flex back** if an investor drops out

If you want the full walkthrough, we’ve written a detailed [guide to how Flex works](https://seedlegals.com/resources/raise-faster-with-seedlegals-flex/)
.

With the Funding plan, you can save up to £1,000 on Flex compared to buying Flex as an Access member.

## Options Everything you need to reward and retain your team

The **Options plan (£2,699 + VAT / year)**includes everything you need to create, manage and grow your EMI or Unapproved option schemes.

- Unlimited EMI valuations
- Unlimited EMI and Unapproved option schemes
- Unlimited grants
- Unlimited help from our experienced team
- Access to their own dashboard for every option holder, including an options value calculator

## FAQs for Standard, Plus and Funding Start, Raise or Scale members

### I’m on Standard: what does this mean for me?

No changes here. When your Standard plan renews (either monthly or annually), you’ll stay on your current Standard rate. It’s lower than the Access price, and as a thank-you for staying with us, you can keep that rate for as long as you like.

There’s just one thing to be aware of: if you ever decide not to renew or you switch to a different plan, you won’t be able to return to the Standard price later. Once it’s gone, it’s gone.

But as long as you keep your subscription active, you can carry on with your current Standard plan at your current fee, with no changes.

### I’m on Plus: what does this mean for me?

When your Plus plan reaches its renewal date, we’ll move you onto **Funding** automatically and you’ll keep your original Plus price of £999 + VAT for another year.

### I have a Funding Start, Raise or Scale plan: what does this mean for me?

We’ve simplified our Funding tiers into a single Funding plan and added new discounts, support and founder benefits. There’s nothing for you to do here. You’ll continue to have everything you had under your original Funding plan, plus the new features that come with the new version.

If you have any questions at all, your account manager is on hand to help.
