INVESTOR DATA ROOM 1in7 SEED ROUND 2026

About the round
-
An ASA lets us raise capital quickly without the time and cost of a full valuation exercise — which is particularly important at pre-revenue stage. It's also the most SEIS-compatible instrument in the UK, giving investors maximum tax efficiency. For investors, the discount and cap actually provide better terms than most priced seed rounds would offer at this stage.
-
£250,000 represents the minimum required to execute the MindArchitect pilot and reach Series A-ready milestones. Partial raises are not planned — the full amount is needed to deliver the roadmap. If the target isn't reached, funds will be returned to investors. We may extend the raise timeline before making that decision.
-
The minimum is £25,000 per investor. Smaller allocations may be considered for immediate family members on a case-by-case basis at the founder's discretion. Please speak to Sean directly if this applies.
-
Conversion is triggered by a Qualifying Funding Round — typically a Series A raise of £500,000 or more. We are targeting this in Q2 2027 (12–24 months from the seed close). If no qualifying round occurs within 36 months (the Longstop Date), you may request repayment or negotiate conversion terms directly.
About SEIS
-
We are in the process of obtaining SEIS Advance Assurance from HMRC. Advance Assurance is a confirmation from HMRC that, subject to shares being issued correctly, the investment will qualify. Full SEIS3 compliance certificates (which you use to claim tax relief) are issued after shares are issued at conversion, not at the time of signing the ASA. We are confident of qualification — seek independent tax advice to confirm your personal eligibility.
-
You claim via your self-assessment tax return after SEIS3 certificates are issued — which happens after shares are formally issued at Series A conversion. You can claim in the tax year of share issuance, or carry back to the prior tax year. We will manage this process and ensure all investors receive their certificates promptly after conversion.
About the business
-
No — 1in7 is pre-revenue. The raise funds the development of MindArchitect from its current pre-pilot stage to a revenue-generating product. The financial projections show first revenue in Q3 2026 following the pilot launch. We have deliberately not claimed revenue that doesn't yet exist.
-
The primary path is growth to a significant Series B and beyond, with eventual trade sale to a major EdTech or education group, or private equity acquisition. The SPV structure also creates optionality — individual products could be sold separately while TopCo retains others. We are not building for a quick exit; this is a platform business with long-term compounding value.
-
All ASA investors receive quarterly updates from Sean covering product progress, commercial milestones, financial position, and next steps. Updates are sent directly by email. Investors are also welcome to schedule a call with Sean at any time — this is a relationship, not a transaction.
-
ASA positions are not freely transferable without company consent. Transfer to certain connected parties (e.g. a spouse or family trust) may be possible but requires advance approval. Post-conversion, standard share transfer restrictions will apply as set out in the Articles of Association. Early-stage shares are illiquid — please invest only capital you can commit for the long term.
