We relocated from India to the UK in 2024 on the Innovator Founder Visa — building an AI shelf analysis platform for retail. We know the process, the documents, and what endorsing bodies actually look for. Now we help other founders do the same.
In 2024, our founder Anil relocated from India to the UK on the Innovator Founder Visa. The endorsed venture was an AI shelf analysis platform — computer vision technology that reads retail shelves in real time, helping brands and retailers enforce compliance, optimise product placement, and recover revenue lost to inventory gaps.
Going through the endorsement process taught us what the official guidance doesn't tell you: how assessors actually evaluate a business plan, what language signals credibility, what a prototype must demonstrate, and where most applications fall short.
We're not an immigration law firm. We're founders who've been through this — and we share that knowledge to help you navigate the same path, faster and with fewer costly mistakes.
Book a Free Discovery Call →We secured a formal endorsement for our AI retail venture — the same endorsement you need. We know the criteria from the inside.
Computer vision for real-time product monitoring — the exact type of technical, innovative venture that endorsing bodies want to see.
Relocated from India. We understand the full journey — not just the business plan, but the relocation itself.
Our founder's work on the UK Innovator Founder Visa has been recognised across London's startup ecosystem and beyond.
UK Endorsing Bodies want to see a credible, innovative business — not an academic template. We help you build every part of the submission package, from first idea to final dossier.
A co-written business plan structured around the Home Office's three criteria: Innovation, Viability, and Scalability. Written in the language that endorsing bodies respond to — not generic MBA templates.
Endorsement-ReadyA credible 3-year financial model: revenue forecasts, cost structure, unit economics, and cash flow. Assessors scrutinise the numbers — we make sure they hold up.
3-Year ModelWe design and help build a working prototype or MVP for your venture. A functional product proves execution capability and technical depth — far more convincing than a slide deck.
Functional PrototypeWe compile the full endorsement submission package and run mock interview sessions so you walk in prepared. From supporting documents to how you answer the hard questions.
Submission ReadyNo commitment. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help.
Approved Endorsing Bodies and Home Office assessors look for authentic technological innovation. We don't just write plans—we design and prototype the complete technical stack for your venture. Hover or click each layer below to inspect the stack architecture:

To qualify for the UK Innovator Founder Visa, your business plan must satisfy three strict statutory criteria. Here is how we build your application to meet them:
You must have a genuine, original business plan that meets new or existing market needs, and/or creates a competitive advantage. We structure a clear technological or algorithmic moat to make your innovation undeniable.
You must prove you have the skills, knowledge, and experience necessary to run the business. We help supplement your professional credentials with a technical roadmap and product prototype that highlights founder execution capacity.
Your plan must show structured planning, potential for job creation, and a pathway to national or international scale. We design robust financial models, go-to-market strategies, and hiring plans aligned with UK economic growth goals.
