doola is built for people forming a US company from outside the US, and its pricing reflects that. Starter costs $297 a year plus state fees and files a US LLC or C Corp in 1 to 2 business days, with an EIN, a US business address and registered agent service included. Tax and Compliance at $1,999 a year adds federal and state tax filings and a 1:1 tax consultation, and Business-in-a-Box at $2,999 a year adds monthly financial statements and bookkeeping. doola says you do not need to be a US citizen to use it. For a US resident forming an LLC in their home state, the yearly Starter fee is higher than the year one cost at Bizee, Inc Authority or ZenBusiness Starter, and you are paying for an address you may not need. For a founder abroad who needs an EIN, an address and an agent together, the bundle removes three separate purchases.
