Response: The Registrant respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on page F-11 of the Amendment. The Registeant respectfully advises the Staff that the Registrant’s auditors, MSPC Certified Public Accountants and Advisors, P.C. has provided the below basis for their conclusion that
the factors noted do not raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern:
While conducting their audit of the
year ended December 31, 2022 our auditors identified conditions that, when considered in aggregate, indicated that there could be substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time,
being one year from the issuance of the financial statements. These factors included a history of net operating losses, a capital deficiency, working capital deficiencies, limited revenues, and the costs required to execute

the Company’s business plan. The auditors requested that management provide information about their plans that may mitigate such doubts and the Company provided the auditors with detailed
business plans updated through the month preceding the issuance of the audit report.
The auditors then assessed the likelihood of
the success of such plans. Factors included the relationships between the Company and the identified financing sources, the probability of achieving stated revenue goals in new business opportunities, and the ability of the Company to control cash
costs when needed through reductions in particular marketing, research, and costs associated with the Business Combination or the payment of expenses using equity instruments.
The Company’s business plan showed anticipated cash activity over the twelve months following the issuance of the audit report. This
model included projected performance based upon signed contracts and operations which had been operation in the year under audit, as well as the anticipated availability of additional financing. The auditors obtained documentation detailing
commitments for an amount in excess to the projected cash needs of the Company through May 2024 by approximately $1 million. The auditors also obtained agreements delaying the repayment date of the convertible debt to the earlier of the date of
the Business Combination or December 31, 2024 as well as a commitment to provide $2.75 million in additional funding through future sales of convertible debt. While documentation was also obtained related to a commitment of
$250 million of additional capital which would be available upon the completion of the anticipated Business Combination with Armada, that funding was not considered in the auditor’s analysis.
Although the Company’s plan did not include any reductions or delays of expenditures, the auditor considered whether such delays would
be feasible. The auditors noted that a large portion of projected cash expenditure through December 31, 2024 was related to marketing costs, costs associated with the Business Combination, and financing improvements in the Company’s
technologies to enable launches of new features. It is feasible that any of these could be delayed if the Company was lacking in current finance to support these operations. It is also feasible that some of these costs could be paid through the
issuance of equity or convertible debt as the Company had done in the past.
In light of the preponderance of this information, the
auditors determined that there was not substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. The auditor’s noted that the liquidity issues of the Company were disclosed in Note 2.4
“Liquidity” and after considering whether disclosure would be required, they determined that it was not necessary to include an explanatory paragraph in the audit report to reflect this conclusion.

the case, then please recharacterize the entity for whose financial statements are provided and file the financial statements for the issuer, Rezolve AI Limited. |
Response: The Registrant respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and respectfully advises the Staff that the carve-out financial statements are for Rezolve AI Limited, which consists of 100% of the transactions of Rezolve Limited and subsidiaries, except for Rezolve China. The reorganization will result in substantially
all of Rezolve Limited’s assets and liabilities being transferred to Rezolve AI Limited.
Rezolve AI Limited was incorporated on
January 3, 2023, and consists of only £10 in cash and share capital, and has no other transactions.
The carve-out financial statements of Rezolve AI Limited were filed due to the fact that it provides investors with a view of the company which will be listed upon successful execution of Rezolve’s business
combination with Armada Acquisition Corp I. Filing the financial statements of Rezolve AI Limited would not provide investors with a view of the Company.

Response: The Registrant respectfully
acknowledges the Staff’s comments and respectfully advises the Staff that Peter Vesco was appointed power of attorney and not Rezolve Limited due to the fact that a Company cannot sign documents while a person can.
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission

Rezolve Limited has the unilateral ability to replace Peter Vesco with another individual as
power of attorney. The basis for the Registrants response can be found in 2.1 of the document title “Power of disposal over ANY Lifestyle Marketing GmbH” which states that “From the date of signing the Original Term Sheet, the
Buyer solely holds the right to appoint a local management team of the business, including appointing a Power of Attorney. A Power of Attorney for the Company shall not be ceased without resolution of the Buyer.”
The Registrant is supplementally providing the executed “Power of disposal over ANY Lifestyle Marketing GmbH”.
| 12. | Staff’s comment: We note the power of attorney agreement you provided to us under |
Response: The Registrant respectfully
acknowledges the Staff’s comment and respectfully advises the Staff that in addition to relying upon the power of attorney agreement previously provided, the Registrant is also relying on the following that asserts that it makes the decisions
that most significantly impact the economic performance of ANY:
| • | The list of act requiring consent from the buyer as of August |
| • | Evidence of from review of weekly meetings between Peter Vesco and the staff of ANY (provided supplementally) |
| • | Evidence of Execution of instructions by the Chief Decision Maker of ANY (provided supplementally) and |
| • | A letter of understanding and memorandum dated May 24, 2023, and |
| • | Power of disposal over ANY Lifestyle Marketing GmbH |
| 13. | Staff’s comment: We note from your response to comment 18 regarding how the decisions |
Response: The Registrant
respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and respectfully advises the Staff that ANY’s management has the right to participate in significant decisions however does not have the right to execute them without consent from the Chief
Decision Maker. ANY’s shareholders do not have the right to appoint or terminate management. Further, ANY’s shareholders cannot

terminate the power of attorney or frustrate the decision-making over ANY, without consent of the Chief Decision Maker. The Registrant has supplementally provided a copy of the executed
“Power of disposal over ANY Lifestyle Marketing GmbH” which states that “From the date of signing the Original Term Sheet, the Buyer solely holds the right to appoint a local management team of the business, including appointing a
Power of Attorney. A Power of Attorney for the Company shall not be ceased without resolution of the Buyer.”

Response: The Registrant respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and respectfully advises the Staff that
the Company has funded €100,000 in September 2023 to support ANY’s working capital needs. Without funding ANY, Rezolve’s beneficial interest is significantly at risk. ANY has no other means of financing since as a newly
incorporated company in August 2021, it has no credit history, has no other shareholders as a source for funding and therefore an oral arrangement is considered substantive.
| 15. | Staff’s comment: We note from your response to comment 20 that on August 30th, 2021, Radio Group agreed that “Rezolve Limited will be the beneficial owner of the revenues and income of ANY.” Further, we note from your response to comment 21 that you submitted to us |
Response: The Registrant respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and respectfully
advises the Staff that:
| • | ANY does not have a service agreement with Rezolve, |
| • | Rezolve has the rights to ANY’s income, and |
| • | Rezolve has an obligation to fund ANY. |
There are no additional agreements that define the consideration to be paid by ANY to Rezolve, other than the rights defined in the marketing
agreement.
| 16. | Staff’s comment: Notwithstanding the comments above, please tell us how you satisfied |
Response: The Registrant respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on pages
F-33-F-35 and F-66-F-69 of the Amendment as to disclose its variable interest in ANY.
