Our Purpose

We help you access government support through allowances, incentives and reliefs. We do this by turning complex rules into clear, practical steps for your business to explore.

As experts in applying legislation, case law, and government guidance, we deliver best-in-class advice and actionable strategies for our clients.

Compliance as standard

We work collaboratively with businesses to claim the savings they’re entitled to safely and confidently. Every claim we prepare is built to withstand HMRC scrutiny and fully adhere to the legislation.

We uphold the highest standards of professionalism, integrity, and transparency. Our team is continuously trained on this evolving landscape, and advice is rigorously documented for all stakeholders as part of our process.

Trusted experts by your side

Knowing the rules is one thing. Knowing how to apply them to your business is what really matters. You’ll work directly with seasoned professionals who bring experience from global firms like EY, Deloitte, IBM, AstraZeneca, and Grant Thornton.

As part of the Sedulo Group, you’ll gain access to holistic business support from our network of world-class advisers, with expertise in funding, wealth management, corporate finance, audit and much more.

Guidance that's responsible,
not just effective

We help businesses access the tax incentives they are eligible to receive, supporting innovation and progress within the UK economy. By doing things the right way, we protect these policies for the companies that truly deserve them. 

We don’t just ask what is legally permissible, we ask what is in the genuine interest of the UK taxpayer. Integrity and transparency underpin our interactions with HMRC so that government support can be effectively administered as intended.

That’s why we are proud members of The R&D Community, supporting their mission to raise standards of technical knowledge and service delivery, foster a collaborative network of professional advisers, and uphold ethical practice in the industry.

Transformative Support That Fuels Growth

“Working with Sedulo is an outstanding experience from start to finish. Their professionalism and expertise is impressive, providing a seamless integration with our company’s operations which has allowed us to focus on other critical aspects of our business.

Our dedicated specialist software consultant was truly exceptional. They not only eased us through the intricacies of the R&D legislation but also exhibited a vast breadth and depth of industry knowledge. What was particularly striking was their genuine enthusiasm for the projects we discussed. Their passion brought a new level of excitement to our collaborative efforts and reminded us of the potential of our projects.

Working with Sedulo has undoubtedly proven to be highly beneficial. Not only did their expert guidance assist us in navigating the R&D process, but the value they added extends far beyond just immediate financial returns. I have, without hesitation, recommended Sedulo’s services to others in my network. Their proficiency, dedication, and keen understanding of our needs significantly exceeded our expectations. The R&D scheme, as guided by Sedulo, is transformative and bolstered our capability to reinvest in our company, particularly in the growth of our engineering team in the UK and forecast future expansion”

Clear, Pragmatic Advice with Technical Precision

“Sedulo’s A.I.R. team have been brilliant to work with, providing a wealth of knowledge and experience to help us navigate the valuable but complicated R&D tax incentives regime in the UK.

As a relatively lean hardware technology start-up where each working day counts, we appreciate clear, prompt and pragmatic advice and the team at Sedulo have certainly delivered exactly that. They have been professional, personable, and supportive throughout.

The clarity of Sedulo’s work makes it easily digestible and actionable for all stakeholders. This has included detailed scenario-modelling to help us with future planning amidst a changing regulatory landscape.

Another example is the project narrative for our latest R&D claim, which Sedulo prepared to a high standard based on detailed technical interviews with our project leads. The attention to detail was spot on, with only minor updates needed from us before we could approve the narrative for submission.

We are looking forward to working with Sedulo as we continue our growth journey, and we could not recommend them highly enough to other businesses.”

Johann van der Merwe, Chief Financial Officer | Armada Technologies

Expert R&D Guidance for Cutting-Edge MedTech

“Sedulo’s A.I.R. team have been brilliant to work with, providing expert guidance through the complex and ever-changing R&D tax regime in the UK.

As an innovator in VR/AI healthcare training, we value their clear, prompt advice. The team understood the technological challenges in creating our SentiraXR training simulations with virtual AI patients.

Their attention to detail during technical interviews was clear from the narrative documents which Sedulo prepared to a high standard, resulting in a successful claim.

We look forward to continuing our partnership with Sedulo as we develop pioneering healthcare education technologies and highly recommend them to other medical technology companies.”
