Seedrs

"Our success to date is a testament to our loyal customer base and dedicated brand advocates. Their unwavering support and passion for our products have been invaluable. We are excited to offer our customers and supporters the opportunity to join our community of investors and own a part of the business, giving back to the incredible community that has helped us thrive."

"Centaur Robotics is at the forefront of revolutionising mobility solutions for wheelchair users. This investment marks a significant milestone in their journey, allowing them to bring their innovative self-balancing electric wheelchair to production."

"The Fieldwork Robotics team combine their significant technical expertise with a drive to create an instant and lasting impact. Agriculture as it stands is not fit for purpose and we need innovative technologies to alleviate the unsustainable levels of waste and improve the economics for the farmer and end customers in the sector. We look forward to working closely with Fieldwork as they tackle this issue head on."

"Even before the cost-of-living crisis hit, public transport outside of big cities was broken – expensive, unreliable, or simply not there for people who need it. Almost 5,000 bus services – more than one in four – were axed between 2012 and 2022. Many that remain, especially outside cities and large towns, are under threat from the recent end of the Bus Recovery Grant. Too many people are left with a stark choice – car ownership, which is itself increasingly prohibitively expensive, or simply not working. That’s not right – it’s not good for individuals and their families, and their social mobility and mental health, or for communities more broadly, and it’s not good for the economy."

"Industries that are difficult to decarbonise, such as manufacturing and heavy industry, are often overlooked. These industries need an easier way of monitoring, measuring and reducing their carbon footprint. At EcoHedge, we believe that companies of all sizes should be able to simply and efficiently track their carbon emissions and this is where EcoHedge comes in. We want to make it as straightforward as possible for these businesses to become climate leaders."

"We know that family life is busy and that it’s a struggle to get kids to try new things without a fight,"

"We are delighted with the support shown for our recent Seedrs campaign; closing the campaign with 126% of our target is excellent and highlights the public’s desire for smarter and safer routing technology"

"When an individual is sectioned under the Mental Health Act, they are in need of urgent treatment and support. Delays in accessing this can severely hamper recovery. The completion of Mental Health Act forms is an essential legal process that ensures patients receive the right treatment, safely; but no-one should have to wait for care when in crisis."

"There has been phenomenal demand amongst investors, clearly demonstrating the scalability and need for a viable solution to the foreign exchange trap that we’ve all been forced to endure for too long."

"The democratisation of financial information is the result of a global demand to access better education and deeper financial insights for a broader audience. We have been impressed with the team’s mission at CityFALCON and pleased to further support them in this seed round"

"We met some fathers in a small town outside Rochdale. Hearing their experience of transport poverty – they were looking for work, there were opportunities just a 15-minute drive away, but they couldn’t drive and there was no viable way to get there by public transport – was mind-blowing."

"We’re delighted to have such great support from the VC community as well as ‘the Crowd’. There’s significant momentum behind revolutionising the life insurance space, but there is also a much broader opportunity for our deathwish platform which allows people to plan exactly what they want to happen when they die. We’re here to help our customers think about how they want to be remembered and enable those wishes to be tied into their life insurance plan, to give it a real meaning."

"At the heart of our industry is an inherent value exchange between advertiser and consumer, and I’m on a mission to harness that value as a significant force for good. Through our respectful, positive ad platform, brands can treat people online as partners — rather than targets — united by a desire to have a meaningful social impact. Backing from industry experts like QCM and FirstPartyCapital, social impact investors and, indeed, the general public, will help to supercharge our growth whilst keeping us true to our values at every step along the way."

"We’re delighted with the outcome of our fundraising efforts. Wurkr is emerging as a start-up success story, as we worked to expand during the pandemic crisis in an economically challenging landscape. Since our launch, we were able to develop the business without government grants, and this seed funding round helps to position us strongly for the next phase of our growth strategy. The incredibly high calibre of our investors is testament to the very real and needed solution that Wurkr’s platform brings to the market."

"We are excited to announce this latest funding round and overwhelmed with the drive and support behind the Seedr campaign. We go into 2021 with a strong proposition as we continue using the power of Open Banking technology to drive our product innovation."

"This is a great start to 2021 and a clear demonstration of the belief investors have in the future of this business and in the property sector in general, despite the uncertainty that was caused by the pandemic and Brexit."

"the new world of finance requires levelling the playing field between regular traders and hedge funds. Until that point is reached, we’re here to hustle."

"We wanted to give our customers the opportunity to be a true part of Ziglu through ownership. We have been overwhelmed by support for the crowdfunding round, resulting in Ziglu becoming the largest equity campaign on Seedrs this year. Our vision for financial inclusion and community support translates through all our initiatives whether it’s crowdfunding, charitable giving or personal finance – providing fair and equal access to everyone – the same approach we take to crypto."

"We’re all about making it as easy as possible to put a big chunk of cash back in people’s pockets and want to make Snoop the most valuable app on everyone’s phone. We’ve made great strides since we launched in April and we’re thrilled with the support from customers in the crowdfund. We will now accelerate development of the platform, broaden our smart money-saving services and continue to scale the business."

"The investment brands we know today fall under two extremes: self-directed DIY investing, where it may be fun and sticky but, as many have pointed out, the risk of losing your money is extremely high; on the other hand, done-for-you portfolios which are managed for you or simply indexed but do not provide any flexibility, meaning you don’t get a sense of involvement, or the ability to avoid general market losses during unprecedented events like COVID-19. Investment is better when people work together to avoid bias, which is why we are building a new model for investors combining AI and Crowd Wisdom to create Wisdom in Crowds™. Our mission is to protect people from losing their money while empowering them with the tools to enjoy making more thoughtful investment decisions"

"The future of work in the digital economy means continuous learning from 16-65 years old, or as the American’s say K to grey. We are looking to democratise funding of tech and coding courses by removing barriers for upfront payment or having to take out high interest loans. We don’t believe in charging our users and have instead opted to build a business model that charges a merchant fee to our partners and is free to the enduser (the student)."

"The success of this campaign is hugely gratifying, and it says something powerful about wellness post-Covid"

"The challenges facing young people are huge, with a massive wealth imbalance, a complex financial system and little help. We’ve been planning, testing and building Nude to make the financial world fairer and easier, starting with helping people buy their first home faster and easier than ever before."

"We are absolutely delighted to have reached our funding target and this investment will really allow us to expand our offering and support so many more people with our products."

"This has been a key growth round for us in preparation of larger Series B in 2020, so we are delighted to have returned to Seedrs, welcome back our existing supporters, and pick up some new ones along the way."

"I’m delighted with the interest shown in our Series A round, the momentum with which we have achieved our target amount and the investor interest in our crowdfunding campaign. It is especially encouraging that a number of our own customers have continued to show faith in us as a company by both participating in the crowdfunding and in the private portion of the round. We now aim to accelerate our growth to new markets, with new products and into new customer segments in the next 24 months."

"June was such a remarkable month at Stashbee HQ we’ve taken to referring to it as the ‘4 Million Month’!"

"Intelligent approaches to cloud software for SMEs have huge potential in the UK market and beyond. Not only are there huge swathes of industry that are yet to capitalise on the benefits, 94% of businesses are cited as struggling with the apps and software they are already using. Workhorse’s exceptional flexibility and deep customisation is unlike existing solutions and extremely well-placed to solve these business problems across multiple sectors."

"I’m passionate about building a global tech company from our home here in Wales. We’re the first Welsh company to raise a growth investment of this size, and it’s fantastic to be working with Octopus – one of the most well-regarded investment firms in London. With the High Street facing increasing challenges day-by-day, retailers selling omnichannel have an opportunity to grow at an astonishing rate and Veeqo can help them achieve that goal."
