Three years, both columns, all-in.
- Business OS $249/yr: calendar, filings, vault, BosAI
- LLC $0 service fee, agent free yr1
- Agent $149 times 2
- Basic package $109 once
- Agent $120 year 1, then $249/yr
- Annual reports and maintenance priced per order
On the bare numbers the entry paths land near each other, but their agent is $120 only for the first year and $249 on renewal, against our flat $149. What separates the columns is that their model is per-order services and ours is a live platform: the calendar, flat-fee filings, vault, and BosAI are included in the plan, not quoted per task.

Where MyCorporation genuinely wins.
A veteran operation
Decades of filings and a professional services bench. Predictable, established, unexciting in the good way.
Low first-year agent price
$120 for the first year undercuts most of the market. Their published renewal is $249/yr.
Maintenance services exist
Annual reports and amendments can be ordered done-for-you, which beats forgetting them.
Where File.Business pulls ahead.
$0 beats $109 at the door
Their cheapest package is $109 before the state fee; our LLC service fee is $0. The savings fund your first year of Monitoring with change.
A platform instead of an order form
Their maintenance is per-order; our compliance runs continuously: 51-jurisdiction calendar, $99 flat annual reports, AutoFile, BosAI answering the odd questions.
One workspace as you grow
Second entity, fifth entity: volume pricing self-applies and everything shares one calendar and team. Per-order shops start from zero each time.
Modern where it matters
Vault with encryption, team seats, API. The category veterans have history; the workspace has features.
