Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about business formation.
Why start at $99 instead of $0?
Most “$0” services charge $40-70 for an EIN and $30-50 for an Operating Agreement — both essential for your business. Our $99 Economy package includes everything you actually need with no hidden upsells.
How long does formation take?
Standard processing is 7-10 business days. With our Complete package’s expedited filing, many states approve in 1-3 days. Some states offer same-day approval.
What’s the difference between Economy and Complete?
Both include formation, EIN, and Operating Agreement. Complete adds 1-year Registered Agent service, expedited filing, compliance tools, and priority support — best for busy founders.
Do I need a Registered Agent?
Yes — every state requires one. You can be your own (Economy package) or use our professional service for privacy and convenience (included in Complete, or add later for $125/year).
Should I form an LLC or Corporation?
LLCs are best for most small businesses — simpler, flexible taxation, less paperwork. Corporations are better if you plan to raise investment, issue stock options, or eventually go public.
Which state should I form in?
Most businesses should form in their home state. Delaware or Wyoming only make sense for specific situations. We can help you decide during the process.
What are state fees?
State fees vary by state and entity type — typically $50-500. We show you the exact state fee before checkout so there are no surprises.
Can I change my entity type later?
Yes, but it’s easier to choose the right structure upfront. Converting from LLC to Corporation (or vice versa) involves additional filings and potential tax implications.
