What Our Clients Say
GrantTree’s R&D Tax Relief service is first-rate. It is efficient and compliance-focused, but, at the same, looks to optimise any claim through a detailed understanding of our technical projects.
GrantTree has been an invaluable companion during this time of dramatic change for the R&D Tax Relief scheme, giving me and my team complete peace of mind during the claim process.
GrantTree has consistently been able to capture the information we provide and distil it into something HMRC understands. I don’t think another agency could do a better job.
GrantTree's technical and financial specialists have been a real asset, working closely with our team to file consecutive successful, high-value R&D claims without delay.
GrantTree makes claiming R&D Tax Relief easy. The team is extremely proactive, whether it’s ensuring we’re claiming our entitlement or making sure we understand the changes to the scheme.
The quality of the team’s work never fails to impress. I would strongly recommend GrantTree to any company looking for elite-level R&D Tax advice delivered through an effortless service.
From data collection to submission, GrantTree’s process was exceptional. Our funding was paid out extremely quickly, which clearly reflects how well GrantTree understood and prepared our claim.
GrantTree’s service was fast and responsive. They identified costs that we missed and increased our claim size. We’re happy customers and recommend working with them.
We’ve worked with GrantTree for a few years now. They take the pain and complexity out of claiming R&D tax credits so we can focus on developing our product.
Being an environmental engineering company, we are very specialised; GrantTree used their extensive expertise to identify qualifying work and maximise what we could claim back.
GrantTree made the whole process of applying for R&D Tax Credits completely painless. Their extensive experience is invaluable in navigating the complex rules.
GrantTree has been a joy to work with! They really care about our product and what we do. Would highly recommend!
We were using a standard accounting firm, but they didn't understand our vision. Virtual reality is quite a new technology and not everybody gets it.
GrantTree was the perfect tax credits partner. They really understood our technology and R&D, which helped us claim for every penny possible.
Grant Tree's approach to R&D Tax claims is a breath of fresh air. They take the weight off your shoulders, and do all the work of preparing the claim.
The money they have successfully claimed for us has played an important part in funding the growth of the business in a range of ways.
GrantTree has been great in helping us get R&D Tax Credits. Having never done this before, we were astounded by how easy and clear they made the entire process.
GrantTree helped us understand the concept and provided us with lots of guidance. I would be more than happy to recommend GrantTree to anyone.
The team were second to none in making the process as easy as possible and exceedingly helpful along every step. We look forward to working with them next year.
Without GrantTree, we would not have filed at all, and even if we had filed, we would not have maximised our claim in the way they managed.
We were previously working with another specialist when GrantTree approached us and were able to save us more than £10k in forecasted fees.
The value we have gained from GrantTree is significant to our business and helps us to invest appropriately in R&D. I would highly recommend the service to any company.
