Ha unfortunately the state/gov doesn't provide APIs so what we've done is build as much automation as we can around the "manual pieces" It's programmatic + fully automated for the platform to call our API ->

Hey great question, the goal with this is to enable a platform to offer this to their users easily in-app (vs having their user need to leave to go DIY on the state website). One example use case: if you are a bank and your user needs an LL

Hey! We're beginning to onboard customers, it's not completely "self-serve" yet and even in future, we will have to see if we can bank certain types of companies (ie we can only do LLCs, C Corps, DAO LLCs, no sole props

hey! the bank will run KYC + AML and it's also why we require identification, full documentation on the company, as well as the beneficiary owners! No way around KYC + AML, but can streamline process via formation + EIN + bank account

Thanks Jack You are 100% correct, people don't really want an LLC, they want a way to transact globally in the US dollar and to do that they need a US bank account + US payments. We work with many different banking and payment partner

Hi! Arjun here from doola. This is spot on, we have worked with 1000s of customers and we believe we're experts BUT that doesn't justify not having enough value in our offering and we are always on the lookout / prowl to add

Hey! Responded to steves comment above with more color on what is included in our plan (tldr we do include IRS tax filing + annual compliance and more) but it is again very valuable for us to see that we are not messaging this clearly enoug

Hey steve, arjun here from doola, this is really valuable feedback because *we do your taxes (form 5472/1120) AND your annual compliance as part of our plan! Our messaging / copy clearly doesn't indicate this / message t

Yup, we at doola have a Delaware C Corp but because we "do business" in NYC (physical office, HQ is there, employees there) we have to do the "foreign LLC filing" to stay compliant and in the clear.

Hey biztos, arjun here from doola, you're 100% correct here. A common mistake people make is form an LLC in a state that they don't live in. They then have to "foreign qualify" in the state they "do business in&quot

Ah if you are getting sued most formation services won't provide / cant provide "official legal counsel" so you will need a lawyer for that

California actually started to waive this fee in year 1. "As of June 2020, the $800 franchise tax fee has been waived in the first year in California." However even with this fee waived it still makes A TON OF SENSE to file your L

Correct, this is an important note for international LLC owners as well as many folks think the "in-state" US tax laws apply, however, if you don't have a US physical presence you might only have an informational filing requi
