Your shareholders invested in your vision. Keep them informed.
Managed, AI-powered investor relations for companies that raised through Crowdcube and Seedrs. We handle the communication so you can focus on building.
Shareholder confidence score
2,500+ UK companies raised through crowdfunding. Almost none communicate with their shareholders.
Once the campaign closes, communication stops. Shareholders feel forgotten. Companies miss the chance to build loyalty, gather feedback, and prepare for future rounds.
Shareholders left in the dark
Investors report receiving little to no communication after investing. Academic research confirms update frequency drops dramatically after the campaign closes.
Founders too busy to update
Early-stage teams are consumed by product development and growth — exactly what they raised funds to do. It is not unwillingness. It is a lack of capacity.
No dedicated service exists
Traditional IR firms serve listed companies at £50k+ per year. Platforms offer basic posting tools. Self-service software doesn't solve the capacity problem.
A structured approach to post-crowdfunding investor relations
Our proprietary four-phase methodology turns shareholder communication from an afterthought into a strategic advantage.
Investor landscape mapping
We profile your entire shareholder base — segmented by investment size, engagement history, and investor type. You receive an Investor Landscape Report showing who your shareholders are and where the opportunities lie.
Structured communication
We design and deliver regular shareholder updates on your behalf — professional, consistent, and compliant. Your team doesn't write, format, or send anything. We handle it and track every engagement metric.
Active sentiment intelligence
Through calls, surveys, and digital engagement we capture what shareholders actually think. Our AI produces your Investor Sentiment Index: confidence, satisfaction, and reinvestment likelihood quantified.
Capital recycling
Using sentiment data, we identify shareholders most likely to reinvest, warm them up before your next round, and address concerns in advance — achieving higher conversion rates on follow-on raises.

“CrestCore is not a consulting business that uses AI. It is a data and technology business that uses consulting as its data acquisition channel.”
Built from firsthand experience
The idea for CrestCore Capital came from direct experience working in investor relations within London's private equity sector. While contacting shareholders of a company that had gone into administration, a pattern emerged that would define the business.
Many of these shareholders were retail investors who had invested through Crowdcube and Seedrs. What was surprising wasn't their frustration about the administration — it was that investor after investor was shocked that someone was actually calling them at all. Since investing, they had received almost no communication. Several described it as a “bitter experience.”
It wasn't just one company. Investors who held shares in multiple crowdfunded businesses reported the same problem across nearly all of them — once the fundraising closed, communication stopped.
When the company's management was asked why, the answer was straightforward — the team was small and focused on scaling. Shareholder communication wasn't something they were unwilling to do. They simply didn't have the time or resource.
The problem was not a lack of intent, but a lack of capacity — and that is precisely the gap CrestCore was built to fill.
Yet the moment those calls were made, everything changed. Investors were grateful, open, and engaged. Within a short conversation it was possible to gather exactly the kind of information any board would want: how the investor felt, whether they would reinvest, what their concerns were. This was not complex or expensive work — it was simply structured communication that no one was providing.
CrestCore Capital Limited was incorporated in November 2025, is already trading, and is generating revenue. The demand first identified through those phone calls has been validated by paying clients.
Frequently asked
Who is CrestCore for?
CrestCore serves UK companies that raised equity through Crowdcube and Seedrs (Republic Europe), as well as small-cap and AIM-listed companies. If you have shareholders who need communication, we can help.
What does “managed service” mean?
Unlike self-service tools where you write and send your own updates, CrestCore handles everything — drafting, distributing, making calls, conducting surveys, and producing reports. Your team reviews and approves, but we do the work.
What is the Investor Sentiment Index?
A proprietary 0-to-100 score quantifying shareholder confidence, satisfaction, and reinvestment likelihood. Generated through AI analysis of direct shareholder feedback. No other service measures this for crowdfunded companies.
How is CrestCore different from Visible.vc?
Visible.vc is a self-service platform — founders still do all the work. CrestCore is a managed service that handles communication for you, while capturing proprietary sentiment data that self-service tools cannot generate.

Most clients are onboarded within two weeks. We begin with Investor Landscape Mapping, then establish your communication cadence. Your first professional update is delivered within the first month.
Do you work with companies outside the UK?
Currently we focus on UK-based companies. As Crowdcube and Republic Europe expand into Europe, we plan to serve European companies from Year 3 onwards.
