How to get set up on SeedLegals Boost

SeedLegals Boost was created to help you find investors more efficiently by connecting you with 800+ potential investors through your LinkedIn. It also helps you get your SEIS/EIS Advance Assurance faster and gives you a SeedLegals Qualified stamp that helps investors know you're ready to raise and assures them that you've met SeedLegals' checks.

Boost is an add-on designed to make your pitch more investor-ready and visible. It includes a letter of engagement, a two‑month premium Scribe subscription to help you promote your round, and a Boost verification badge confirming your company has passed key checks.

To be eligible, you’ll need an active SEIS/EIS Advance Assurance application, a fully completed pitch page, and a strong pitch deck that clearly covers your business model, team, and includes a video. Together, these elements help Boost increase your credibility, refine your pitch, and expand your exposure to potential investors.

For more detail on how Boost works, take a look at our article “Raise faster with SeedLegals Boost.”

To get the most from Boost, first make sure your SeedLegals account is fully set up to attract investors. A clear, well-structured pitch is essential, and this guide will walk you through everything you need to configure to start using Boost effectively.

Step 1: Ensure your Company details match what is on Companies House

In order to check your company's details on the Seedlegals platform, please head over to Settings>Details. Please review the information there alongside the details on the overview section of your Companies House account and ensure everything here matches. Including if all directors are listed and if their full names are used as these will be the names that will be pulled onto the agreements.

Step 2: Check if your Cap Table is accurate

Here you want to make sure your Companies House filings are accurately reflected on SeedLegals, and vice versa, so they’re a precise mirror of each other. This ensures there are no discrepancies in the nominal value and that no events are missed. To review your cap table, go to the Cap Table tab, then select Shareholders and then Events.

Step 3: Ensure your pitch page is fully updated

This is the first thing potential investors will see, so it’s essential that it’s complete, accurate, and fully up to date. Take a look at our step-by-step guide to using Pitch and our Free Pitch Deck template

Step 4: Clearly list your target raise on your page

If you’re planning to fundraise in the next 3–6 months, clearly state your target raise. This sets expectations, shows you’ve thought through your funding needs and runway, and helps investors quickly see if the round fits their cheque size and strategy.

Step 5: Reference S/EIS on your pitch page

Many investors want to see S/EIS eligibility upfront because it makes your round much more attractive by reducing their risk and boosting potential returns. These UK tax relief schemes can offer income tax relief, capital gains tax exemptions, and loss relief, so investors may recover a significant portion of their investment if things don’t go to plan.  

We also recommend getting your Advance Assurance kicked off as soon as possible, as having that ‘seal of approval’ from HMRC really helps to draw investors in.

As you start filling in your investment details, a section on S/EIS will appear where you can enter the relevant information.

Step 6: Upload your pitch video

A pitch video is a quick, engaging way for investors to understand your business. It showcases your vision, energy, and credibility in a way slides can’t, helps them grasp your story and solution in minutes, and is easy to share so your round can gain momentum faster.

Step 7: Include your business model in your pitch deck

A clear business model shows how your company makes money and sustains itself over time. It encourages you to define who your customers are, the value you offer them, and how that turns into revenue. For investors, a solid model signals that you’ve moved beyond the idea stage and understand how to build a viable, scalable business. It also guides your decisions as you grow, keeping your strategy, pricing, and operations aligned with generating consistent revenue and long‑term success.

Step 8: Highlight your company's vision and goal

Make sure the Vision, Problem, and Solution sections on your pitch page are completed. They’re among the first things an investor will scan to judge your market fit and the size of the opportunity. Clearly defining these sections is one of the fastest ways to capture interest and show what your company is focused on.

This article goes into more detail on exactly what to include in each section to make your narrative stand out.

Step 9: Your Boost profile is reviewed by our team

Once you’re set up on the platform, our team will review your company and pitching materials. If everything is in order, you’ll be awarded the SeedLegals Qualified badge – a clear signal to investors that your company’s key foundations are in good shape.

That’s it — your Boost profile is now ready to go!

Now that your setup is complete, you can start using Boost to present your business to investors more effectively. Keep your profile regularly updated so it always reflects your latest progress, traction, and fundraising plans.
