Building a fairer, smarter way
for small businesses to launch
We're revolutionising how founders start their journey with accessible tools, strategic guidance, and confidence from day one.
The Challenge We're Solving
The odds are stacked against small business founders. We're here to change that.
of businesses survive five years. Early-stage mistakes in naming, branding, and compliance are leading contributors to failure.
is the average cost of rebranding a small business. Many founders face this avoidable cost because early decisions weren't validated.
of UK businesses are SMEs. Almost all rely on support at the exact moment it's hardest to access.
Our goal
To revolutionise how small businesses are started in the UK by giving every founder access to intelligent naming, strategic clarity, compliance insight, and confident decision-making — all in one place, and at a fraction of traditional costs.
The Usual Way
How most founders usually build their brand.
Research everything separately.
Founders check domains, Companies House, social handles, and trademarks in different places, with no clear process.
Choose a name without certainty.
Decisions are based on preference or a quick search, with no assurance the name is available or suitable.
Start branding without a clear strategy.
Logos and colours are chosen before understanding the audience or brand direction.
Keep ideas and notes scattered.
Research and inspiration end up across notes, apps, messages, and browser tabs.
Spend a lot of time rethinking and revisiting decisions.
Without guidance, the process becomes slow and uncertain.
Risk needing a rebrand later.
Missing checks early on can lead to conflicts or weak foundations discovered after launch.
The Mintr Way

Check everything in one place.

From the Founder
Why Mintr exists and what it's working toward
 copy.jpg)
Hello, I'm Jessica
I've been a brand strategist, a marketer, an administrator and now, finally, a software developer.
Some of the most creative, business-minded people I know never launched their ideas — not because they weren't capable, but because they were priced out, overwhelmed or just didn't know where to start.
Mintr exists to change that. I'm building it for people with real ideas but no roadmap. For founders who can't afford agencies or spend months second-guessing a name or strategy.
I'm building it solo, out in the open, and on a shoestring — because I want it to stay focused, transparent, and genuinely useful.
The Founder's Offer funds the build and gives you lifetime access to everything Mintr becomes. If you're behind this vision, back it. Share it. Help build the platform that small businesses actually deserve.
It's time to level the playing field.
