Entity services
Bizee
Bizee, formerly Incfile, files business formation documents and handles the filings a company needs afterwards. It forms LLCs, corporations, and nonprofits, acts as registered agent, files S corp tax elections, DBAs, amendments, and articles of dissolution, and runs supporting services such as EIN registration, business licence research, trademark registration, certificates of good standing, and corporate kits with stock certificates.
The formation package itself is free apart from the state filing fee, charged as a single one-time service fee rather than a recurring subscription. The first year of registered agent service is included when a company is formed through Bizee, renewing at $149 a year. Compliance alerts, by text and email, come with every formation package at no extra charge, with the customer choosing whether to file themselves or have Bizee do it. Support is by phone Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Central, and the company states its support team is staffed by people rather than bots and is fluent in English and Spanish.
Bizee began in 2004 in Houston, Texas, and states it remains headquartered there; it describes itself as bootstrapped, founder-led, and independently owned, and says it has served over 1,000,000 entrepreneurs. It introduced $0 formation plus state fees in 2019. The Trustpilot rating shown on its site is 4.8 out of 5 from 26,115 reviews.
Bizee states plainly that it is not a law firm, does not provide legal advice, and that information shared with it is not protected by attorney-client privilege, so structuring questions belong with an attorney or accountant.
Best for
Investors and small operators forming an LLC or corporation cheaply who need filing, a registered agent, and compliance reminders rather than legal advice, which Bizee states it does not provide.
