Pricing

Standardized pricing, in the open.

Flat, public prices for the standard case — pick a package or build your own. State fees are passed through at cost, and complex cases are quoted on a consultation, never as a surprise bill.

Pricing FAQ

The fine print, up front.

What does "+ state fee" mean?

State filing fees and franchise taxes are government costs. We pass them through at cost rather than marking them up — the price shown is our service fee, and the state's fee is billed separately at cost.

Can I buy services individually instead of a package?

Yes. Every service has a standalone price — compliance, bookkeeping, tax filing, sales tax, and payroll. Forming a new company is the Starter package. Packages simply bundle the common ones at a better rate.

What's included in the standard package price?

Packages cover the standard case — a single entity within normal volume. Genuinely complex situations (heavy cross-border filings, very high transaction volume, many states) are quoted on a consultation so you never get a surprise bill.

What accounting software do you use?

We run your books on standard cloud accounting platforms and set everything up for you. You own your books and can take them anywhere.

Are returns actually signed by a CPA?

Yes. AI does the preparation; a licensed CPA reviews and signs every return that goes out.
