Dyma Budorin
Co-Founder and CEO, Hacken
"They cared to understand the Web3 cybersecurity to deliver a winning case"

"At Hacken, we do a lot across Web3 cybersecurity – both product and service work. The CSMPLT team took the time to deeply understand our business model, services, and industry specifics. Despite our dual structure, they expertly positioned my achievements to meet the “product-led” requirement of the UK Global Talent visa. As someone who works in professional services myself, I value true professionalism – and CSMPLT delivered exactly that. I’ve already recommended them to several colleagues."

"Moved from the US to the UK on Global Talent thanks to CSMPLT"

"They deeply understand the Global Talent criteria and know exactly how to extract the most relevant aspects of your background to meet them. What truly impressed me was how much time they invested in understanding my work — far beyond what I expected. That’s what sets them apart. They genuinely care about your field and aren’t afraid to dig deep to uncover the golden nuggets that make your case truly stand out. Highly recommended."

Andrew Will Skrypnyk
Founder and CEO, Promova
"They translated abstract CEO work into criteria-matching proof"

"My biggest challenge with the UK Global Talent visa was understanding what evidence they actually want from a CEO like me. I don’t write code or docs — I lead people, drive ideas, and get results. CSMPLT helped translate that into evidence that met the strict criteria. Their process was intense — they asked deep, almost painfully detailed questions — but it brought real clarity. Together we found the right angles, the right proof, and I got endorsed on the first try. Visas are painful, but CSMPLT made it as smooth as possible."

General Manager, Nibble
"I focused on my startup, they delivered the endorsement"

"The CSMPLT team took full ownership of the process and guided me every step of the way. They helped me understand the requirements, identify strong evidence, choose the right recommenders, and craft a compelling strategy. While I focused on growing Nibble, they handled everything — from positioning to paperwork. I’m a strong believer in specialisation and delegating to experts, and this was a perfect example. Thanks to their work, we achieved a positive Global Talent outcome without it becoming a distraction. Huge thanks to the team for making it seamless."

Anton Pavlovsky
Founder and CEO, Headway Inc
"They understand mobile apps business — and know how to package it for GTV"

"As Headway expanded internationally with new offices in London and Madrid, I turned to the CSMPLT team to help secure my UK residency permit. While I had a strong public profile, meeting the other Global Talent criteria was tricky. I wasn’t sure what evidence to use, but the team expertly guided me through it. Their understanding of the mobile apps business was outstanding — I didn’t need to explain a thing. They asked precise, metric-driven questions, making the process seamless. We secured the endorsement, and I literally spent no more than a couple of hours on all of this."

"CSMPLT delivered winning strategy tailored for tricky VC profile"

"With a broad and varied career, it was challenging to decide what to highlight for the GTV criteria. The CSMPLT team helped craft a sharp case strategy, focusing on what mattered and cutting what didn’t. Investor profiles are tricky, but the team knew exactly how to position mine for Tech Nation. They handled everything end-to-end – from positioning to execution – saving me at least 100 hours. I received a positive endorsement and couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Highly recommend them for anyone navigating this process."

"Reworked my case, secured endorsement, halved ILR timeline"

"After a rejected Global Talent application, I turned to CSMPLT team — and soon received my endorsement. They completely reworked my case, taking time to understand my work and distill it into a clear, compelling narrative. They guided me in identifying strong evidence and helped shape it into a coherent, criteria-aligned package. Their strategic insight and end-to-end support made all the difference. Moving from a Skilled Worker visa to Global Talent has now cut my ILR timeline dramatically. I highly recommend Ivan and his team."

"Approved for US and UK in record time with CSMPLT"

"I was referred to CSMPLT by Vital Laptenok at Burning Man, during a moment of reflection about my next steps. Once back in real life, I reached out and decided to pursue options in both the UK and US. The timeline was extremely tight, but CSMPLT accomplished what others said was impossible – in just one month everything was prepared and submitted, and two weeks later we had approval in the US. Shortly after, we filed in the UK and received another approval. Exceptional speed, flawless execution. Highly recommended."
