I'm about to start an LLC for my freelance web design gig. I've been comparing Bizee and Inc Authority. The pricing seems similar but the packages are different. Is there a clear winner or am I overthinking? Any horror stories or praise? Thanks.
LLC Formation
Bizee vs inc authority, are the differences worth worrying about?
I used Bizee for my bakery LLC. It was fine, no major issues. But honestly, now I'd just file directly with the state. Save yourself the fees.
Inc Authority spams you with upsells after you sign up. Like, relentless. If you go with them, use a burner email.
Both are overkill if you're a solo freelancer. Just file the articles yourself. The rest is just registered agent service which you can get cheaper elsewhere.
I had a good experience with Bizee. Their customer service answered my questions quickly. But I'm not sure it's worth the premium over DIY.
I've heard Inc Authority's free LLC offer is a trap. They charge for the registered agent after the first year. Bizee is more transparent.
We used Inc Authority for our startup. No Complaints. But we were clueless, so maybe we paid for convenience.
Just file with your state and hire a registered agent for $50/year. You'll save hundreds. Neither Bizee nor Inc Authority is Worth worrying about.
To add to my earlier point, Inc Authority called me three times in one day after I downloaded their guide. Avoid.
I went with Bizee and it was smooth. But my friend used Inc Authority and got a bunch of hidden fees. YMMV.
Also, check if your state has a streamlined online filing. Some states make it super easy.
Overthinking it. Just pick one and move on. The differences are minor in tge grand scheme.
Thanks all. I think I'll just DIY it and save the money. Appreciate the input.
