$99 service fee

+ state filing fee, commonly $50 to $500 depending on your state, billed separately and paid directly to the state.

Get Started
How Formation Works

Document prep and filing, plus help thinking through your structure

We start by asking about your business: what you sell, how many owners are involved, and how you want to handle liability and taxes down the road. Based on what you tell us, we explain the general differences between an LLC and a corporation so you can make an informed choice. We are not a CPA or law firm, so for complex ownership or tax situations, we recommend confirming your decision with one before filing.

Once you've chosen a structure, we prepare your Articles of Organization or Articles of Incorporation and file them with your state's business registration office. State filing fees vary by state and are paid directly to the government, separate from our service fee. We keep you updated once your filing is submitted and share your confirmed formation documents as soon as the state processes them.

  • LLC vs. corporation guidance based on your situation
  • Preparation of your Articles of Organization or Incorporation
