Our state figure counts three items: the filing, two years of reports and a minimum tax where one exists. Variable costs like publication are excluded.

How the ranking came out

Filings handled per dollar put Mainstay Filing first. That term is 30% of the ranking; measured three-year cost, renewal drift, break-even year and price clarity make up the rest.

A foreign LLC already spans two states, so a provider covering both ranked first.
