How our pricing actually works

$0 to start

Formation service is genuinely $0. You pay the state filing fee at cost (which we don't mark up). For most states that's $50-$300.

Pay only when you file

Per-service pricing means you only pay when you actually file something. No annual subscription required. No "premium tier" upsell.

Auto-renew option

Compliance Annual Filings at $129/yr auto-renews your annual report every year. Cancel anytime; no clawback. The one annual commitment we recommend.

State fees at cost

We pass through whatever the state charges. Receipt shows our service fee and the state fee separately so you can see exactly where money went.

Common questions

Is formation really $0?
Yes. Our service fee for forming an LLC, C-Corp, S-Corp, nonprofit, PC, partnership, or sole proprietorship is $0. You only pay the state filing fee, which we collect and pass through at the state's published rate.
What's the difference between $99 Annual Report Filing and $129/yr Compliance Annual Filings?
Annual Report Filing at $99 is a one-time filing for a single year. Compliance Annual Filings at $129/year auto-renews · we file your annual report on time every year without you needing to remember. It also includes amendment filings (officer/address changes), compliance alerts, and direct access to a specialist for the same flat rate.
Are state filing fees included in your service fee?
No · they're passed through separately at the state's rate. We don't mark up state fees. Your receipt shows both line items.
Do you offer a subscription bundle?
No. Per-service pricing is the model · you pay only when you file. The closest thing to a subscription is Compliance Annual Filings ($129/yr) for hands-off annual report management, plus optional Registered Agent ($149/yr) and Compliance Monitoring ($79/yr) alerts.
Can I cancel a recurring service?
Yes. Compliance Annual Filings, Registered Agent, Virtual Business Address, and Compliance Monitoring can all be cancelled anytime from the dashboard. We pro-rate unused months on subscription cancellations within the first 30 days.
