The founder

I got rejected. Then I learned what endorsing bodies actually want.

I applied for my own Innovator Founder Visa thinking a strong business was enough. It wasn't. My plan got rejected, by more than one endorsing body, before I worked out what they were really scoring against.

I rebuilt it against the actual endorsement criteria, learned how each body weights innovation, viability, and scalability differently, and got endorsed on the rebuild. Now I do the same thing for other founders, one engagement at a time.

Plans don't fail because the business is weak. They fail because the plan doesn't speak to how endorsing bodies score. That's the gap I work in.
Services

How I help Innovator Founder Visa applicants

Each engagement is bespoke and quoted after the discovery call. Most clients pick one of these four lanes, or a combination.

Plan review & brainstorming

You bring a draft. We pressure-test it against the actual endorsement criteria, rebuild weak sections together, and sharpen the innovation, viability, and scalability story.

Endorsing body strategy

Each endorsing body weights innovation, viability, and scalability differently. We pick the right one for your business and tailor the plan to how that body actually scores.

Interview & rejection rebuild

Mock endorsement interviews against likely questions. If you've been rejected, we reverse-engineer the rejection letter and rebuild for resubmission.

Post-endorsement advisory

Quarterly check-ins for the 12, 24, and 36-month visa milestones (job creation, investment, growth proof). Stay endorsable, not just endorsed.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

No. I work on your business plan and endorsement strategy, not legal advice. For visa application paperwork or appeals, work with a qualified immigration solicitor. The two roles complement each other.
Most engagements run 1–4 weeks, mixing async work and 1–2 working sessions. I review your plan against the actual endorsement criteria, flag the gaps, and we rebuild the weak sections together so the plan you submit is the one you want endorsed.
No. The plan has to be yours. Endorsing bodies are good at spotting ghostwritten work, and an interview will catch you out anyway. I help you make your plan one that gets endorsed.
Yes. Rejected-applicant rebuilds are one of the most common engagements. We analyse the rejection letter, reverse-engineer what failed, and rebuild the plan against the body's actual scoring lens before you resubmit.
Yes. Calls run on Zoom or Google Meet, time-zone permitting. The endorsing-body lens I apply is the same wherever you're based.
Engagements start from £499 for tight-scope reviews. Each is quoted individually after the free 30-min discovery call. No retainers, no monthly contracts. You see the full price before you commit.
Yes. Plans are never shared, never used for marketing, never used to train models. Your idea stays yours.
