Bizee is cheaper if formation is the whole job. The difference buys the platform.

Honest math: on the bare filing-plus-agent path Bizee costs less, and our agent renewal happens to match theirs at $149. What the File.Business column buys is the operating system on top: the 51-jurisdiction calendar, flat-fee filings, vault, and BosAI. If you will never want those, take their Silver plan with our blessing.

Credit where due

Where Bizee (formerly Incfile) genuinely wins.

One of the cheapest real entries anywhere

Silver at $0 plus state fee with a free agent year is a legitimately low-cost formation, and they have processed a million-plus businesses.

Agent renewal matches ours

$149/yr after the free year is fair market price. No gouging on the renewal.

A dashboard, not nothing

Order tracking, alerts, and documents in one place. Thinner than a platform, but present.

Our case

Where File.Business pulls ahead.

The checkout tells the story

Their $0 grows at checkout: $75 rush, $70 EIN, $89 operating agreement. Our $0 stays $0; the EIN is $89 flat if and when you want it.

A workspace, not a receipt

After Bizee files, compliance is your spreadsheet. Business OS runs the calendar, files annual reports at $99 flat, and answers questions with BosAI.

Per-filing pricing forever

S-Corp election $147, foreign qualification $247. A menu, not a mystery.

Grows to a portfolio

From 5 entities the Enterprise slider prices itself; one workspace, one team, one calendar. Formation-first services stay one-order-at-a-time.

Coming from Bizee? Your agent renewal already costs $149, so switching is cost-neutral on that line: we file the change ($49 + state fee), documents land in the vault, and the calendar starts watching your deadlines the same day.

FAQ

Common questions.

How is File.Business different from Bizee?
Bizee, formerly Incfile, is a formation shop: fast, cheap entry, add-ons at checkout, and a basic dashboard after. File.Business is the compliance platform: formation is the $0-service-fee on-ramp and the product is the workspace that runs your obligations for years. Same first step; different second act.
When is Bizee honestly the better pick?
If the whole job is getting an LLC filed at minimum cost and you will manage compliance yourself, Silver plus their free agent year is about as cheap as this gets. Choose us when the deadlines, filings, and documents should be handled by software instead of by you.
Is this comparison up to date?
Checked August 11, 2026 against Bizee’s public pricing and current reviews: Silver $0, Gold $199, Platinum $299 plus state fees; agent free year one then $149/yr; checkout add-ons around $70 to $99. Verify on bizee.com and tell us if a number here is stale.
Is your $0 formation the same as their $0?
Structurally yes: $0 service fee plus the state fee. The difference is what happens next: their checkout offers paid add-ons; our pricing page is the entire store, and the workspace afterward is free.
Can I move my Bizee LLC?
Yes: change of registered agent, $49 plus state fee, filed by us. Since both agents renew at $149, the ongoing cost is identical; the workspace is the reason to move.
What does year 2 cost at each?
Bizee: $149 agent, plus any services you buy one-off. File.Business: $149 agent plus your plan at its published price, $0 if you stay on the free workspace.
