 "best_for": "first-time US founders and side-hustlers who want an LLC or corporation filed for them for little more than the state fee, with a registered agent included for the first year",
 "skip_if": "you are comfortable filing directly with your state and acting as your own registered agent; or you need legal or tax advice, which a formation service does not replace",
 "honest_knock": "The $0 headline leaves out the state filing fee, which is usually the larger part of the bill, and the package contents only show after you choose an entity and a state. The free registered agent year ends, and the standalone service is listed at $149 a year. Refunds stop once Bizee forwards your payment to the state, typically within 24 hours.",

  "notes": "(read 2026-10-15 on bizee.com and its registered agent and cancellation pages; the cards show $ without naming a currency) Three formation packages, each a one-time payment plus your state's filing fee: Basic $0, Standard $199 and Premium $299. The state fee is set by the state, not by Bizee, and the detailed package comparison only appears after you choose an entity type and a state, so we could not confirm what each package includes or what the checkout total comes to. The registered agent service is free for the first year when you form through Bizee; the standalone registered agent page lists it at $149 a year, and we did not confirm that the same price applies when the free year ends. That service uploads official documents to your client portal, sends notifications and includes lifetime compliance notifications. A virtual address or mailbox is sold as a recurring extra, without a price we could read on the public pages. The cancellation policy says an order is generally refundable until Bizee forwards payment to a government entity, typically within 24 hours of the order, less expenses already paid or incurred.",

  "why": "Zenind is in our dossiers too and sells the same shape of offer: when we read it on 7 October 2026 its Basic formation was $0 plus state fees, Standard $149 and Premium $249 one-time, with its registered agent and address at $99 a year. Bizee's paid packages cost more, at $199 and $299, and its standalone registered agent is listed at $149 a year after a free first year. Compare the second-year cost, not only the first: that is where formation services differ."
