QUESTIONS

Before adapting the model.

Is this legal to offer?+

Yes, but understand the boundaries. You provide formation services, not legal advice. Partner with lawyers for complex questions. Check regulations.

How do you compete with Stripe Atlas?+

Different geography (non-US), lower pricing, better support, additional services (bookkeeping, tax), or specific founder segments.

What about ongoing revenue?+

Registered agent fees, compliance services, annual reports, bookkeeping, and banking partnerships create recurring revenue.
