To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

As a startup owner in software and app…

As a startup owner in software and app development, I had been advertised R&D claim services all over the place. It looked like a daunting amount of work and it was very hard to know if I'd even qualify. It was earlier this year I was recommended Claimer.

I checked it out but after hearing it mentioned again and again, I decided to give it a go.. and have never looked back! If you like Seedlegals, this will help you tremendously as an early stage startup navigating the UK ecosystem. Their support is class.

The claims process is transparent and fairly easy. You can talk to an actual plain clothed human being about your 'silly' questions (at least over Intercom chat) and over the phone too.

Can't recommend Claimer enough and hope they will introduce more services to UK startups to make it easier to claim just like Seedlegals have with making legals more accessible and cheaper.

Professional and Effective Service at a Very Reasonable Cost

Claimer took an extremely efficient, knowledgeable, professional and effective approach to our R&D tax credit claim. They took the time to deal with the special issues of our RDEC claim. All of this at a commission of 5% and no multi-year commitment — compared to 25% with a 3-year commitment we were quoted by a traditional provider.

Future unicorn!

Being a risk averse CEO, at first I was sceptical and thought I can do this myself. Having gone through a myriad of HMRC blogs and web pages, it clearly turned out that I needed a specialist. I was grateful for a simple, easy to use and personal service like claimer. I think they have a wonderful simple proposition, solving a real life pain point for an extremely decent price if you compare it to the time it saved me. It is now the only R&D tool I use and will use. Highly recommend it, and would be sharing with others (not affiliated in any shape or form)

The team at Claimer are brilliant!

The team at Claimer were excellent from start to finish. They walked me through the whole process, explaining each step along the way. I was able to claim for the past 2 years and because of this ended up with more than I'd originally anticipated!

Claimer made the process very smooth

First time making R&D claims, and Claimer made the process very smooth for us using their online platform. The team was extremely helpful in reviewing and getting our application to HMRC. The claim went through without question and was paid within 20 working days of submission!

Really great service

Really great service! Easy to use, great support and great results. I had other R&D accountants quote between 25% to 40% but with claimer I get to keep most of my money. As a small business, that really helps. Will be using them again for the next claim :)

Excellent Service

The Claimer team were excellent. This was our first R&D claim and we think the combination of an highly intuitive platform and expert support was excellent. We recommend and will use Claimer for our next claim for sure.

A complex process made entirely painless

This is our first R&D claim for a new app business. We had no idea where to start. After getting incorrect advice from some non-specialist accountants, we were recommended to contact Claimer.

Claimer then talked us through the process, asked us in-depth questions, helped us to write our submission and subsequently handled everything for us. They made an otherwise baffling process entirely painless.

If you're making an R&D claim don't bother asking anyone else.
