Backed by Seven Sigma
The Incentive

Governments pay billions to companies that innovate.

The US and most European countries reward companies that invest in research and development. Yet most companies that qualify never claim it.

Does this sound like you?
  1. 01

    Solving technical problems

    Working out how to make something work when the answer isn't obvious.

  2. 02

    Building new products

    Software, hardware, platforms or processes that didn't exist before.

  3. 03

    Improving how things work

    Making what you have faster, cheaper, more reliable or easier to scale.

PUTTING IT IN DOLLARS

What Your Work Could Be Worth

United States

$50–80K

A 5-person startup iterating on its product for a year could turn that work into $50–80K in credits, even pre-revenue, applied against payroll tax instead of income tax.

Greece & the EU

€110K

A Greek manufacturer spending €500K on qualifying R&D could deduct up to €1M from taxable income under Greece's 200% super-deduction, worth roughly €110K in real tax savings at the 22% corporate rate.

Whichever side of the Atlantic you're on, this is money already owed to you. Let's help you claim it.

Our Product

One Continuous Loop: From Engineering Work to Forward-Looking Strategy

Three modules are live in production today; two are shipping next, closing the loop from documentation into strategy.

I. Interview

Engineers talk.
LyceumX documents.

Most R&D goes undocumented because engineers write for operations, not compliance. The Interview agent conducts structured voice and text interviews, extracting qualifying activity that would otherwise go uncaptured.

  • Voice & text interview modes
  • Questions aligned to tax authority criteria
  • Automatic transcript generation & analysis
  • Covers uncertainty, experimentation & qualified purpose
LyceumX · Interview
Describe the main technical challenge your team faced in the coating project. What didn't work as expected?
We couldn't get adhesion above 85°C; we tried several formulations before finding a solution.
That's a strong indicator of qualified uncertainty and experimentation. I've documented this as a core R&D activity.
II. Evaluate

We upload your documents & identify gaps.

The Evaluate agent reads your technical reports, project briefs, and engineer notes, identifies qualifying activities, and generates a structured claim package ready for expert review and submission.

  • Supports PDF, DOCX, and plain text uploads
  • Maps each activity to the four-part R&D test
  • Generates a downloadable, audit-ready DOCX report
  • Expert-validated before submission
LyceumX · Evaluate

IV. Calculate In Progress

V. Innovate In Progress

Maps your business concepts against patents, startups, and market trends, closing the loop by turning this year's tax credit data into next year's innovation roadmap.

Why LyceumX

Where Deep Industry Expertise Meets AI.

Legacy consultants are manual and expensive. Horizontal tools assume clean data and software-centric workflows. LyceumX was built for manufacturers where R&D happens on the shop floor, not in a codebase.

Proprietary Data

Seven Sigma Dataset & Audit Practices

Trained on Seven Sigma's accumulated industrial R&D work, a dataset no horizontal tool can replicate.

Extraction Intelligence

Conversational R&D Discovery

Our agents interview your team, read between the lines of existing data, and surface qualifying R&D that would otherwise go uncaptured.

Forward-Looking Value

Innovation Roadmaps from Patent Data

LyceumX generates forward-looking roadmaps grounded in patent landscape analysis, future R&D that is defensible from day one.

Who We Serve

Built for R&D Teams, and the Consultancies Who Serve Them

Two ways to bring LyceumX into your workflow, both aligned around the same outcome: turn engineering work into credits today, and strategy tomorrow.

Industrial Manufacturers

Process improvements, custom tooling, novel material applications: qualifying R&D buried in production logs and engineer notebooks. We surface it.

Life Sciences & Biotech

Formulation development, clinical workflows, regulatory-driven iteration: high-value R&D structured into defensible claims.

Contract Manufacturers

Custom engineering work performed for clients often qualifies as your R&D. Most firms never claim it. We identify it across your full project portfolio.

R&D Tax Credit Consultancies

License LyceumX as your own internal platform to serve clients faster, with audit-ready documentation and a forward-looking upsell horizontal tools can't offer.
