Ranked across the US

Our terms

What the ranking includes

  1. Measured three-year cost (36%): The first-year price plus two renewals from each company's published pricing.
  2. Filings handled per dollar (30%): The recurring work the price performs: acting as registered agent, filing the state report, applying for the EIN and working at the same price in other states.
  3. Renewal drift (14%): How far the yearly price moves once the first year ends.
  4. Break-even year (10%): The year in which one service's total passes another's, taken from each page's cost-over-time quotes.
  5. Price clarity (10%): Whether the first-year price, the renewal and the state fee can all be read before the checkout page.
