The operating system for getting started.
Forming a company is six different filings at three levels of government, plus banking, brand, and a dozen ongoing compliance deadlines. We handle all of it on one platform so you can focus on the actual business.
Everything a founder actually needs.
Most platforms sell you the formation and then bolt on a half-dozen upsells. Our bundle is honest: the formation is $0, the rest is either built in or transparent.
From day one to running.
Entity type, state, owners. Five minutes, pay only state fee. We surface the right answers if you are not sure.
Articles of Organization or Incorporation submitted same day. State processing varies by state.
We file IRS Form SS-4. Most US founders receive the EIN the same business day.
Matched to a banking partner, you@yourbrand.com email working, domain locked.
FinCEN BOI submitted. Registered Agent active in your state. Compliance calendar populated.
Annual reports, franchise tax, BOI updates, state and local deadlines, all tracked. We file what you authorize us to file.
How customers like you use the platform.
"I had banking, an EIN, and a real domain by the end of day three. Last company took six weeks."
"They caught a Pennsylvanian annual report I would have missed. The platform pays for itself the first time that happens."
"Replaced four separate vendors with one bill. Saved $1,800 a year and stopped fielding random renewal emails."

On the $129/yr Compliance Annual Filings plan, we cover state late fees.
When you autofile your annual report through the $129/yr plan and we miss the deadline, we pay the state's late fee. The guarantee applies to that specific plan and the filings it includes. Other File.Business services are billed at the prices on this page.
