Services
Pick the right entity, then add the pieces that make it real — registered agent, EIN, banking, and compliance. ConnectingMatrix handles the filings end to end for founders in the US and abroad, so you never touch a .gov form.
Entity types
Choose the structure that fits your plans.
Not sure which to pick? We help you decide in plain English, then prepare and file it so it's done right the first time — no lawyers, no guesswork.
LLC
Choose an LLC when you want the simplest, most flexible path to a legal US business.
- Personal liability protection with minimal paperwork and low ongoing upkeep
- Pass-through taxation by default — profits are taxed once, on your return
- Ideal for freelancers, agencies, e-commerce, SaaS, and small remote teams
C-Corporation
Choose a C-Corp when you plan to raise venture capital or issue stock and options.
- Issue shares and an option pool to investors, co-founders, and employees
- The structure VCs and accelerators expect — clean cap table, familiar terms
- Unlimited shareholders and clear equity ownership as you scale
S-Corporation
Choose an S-Corp election when you qualify and want pass-through tax treatment.
- Profits pass through to owners, avoiding corporate-level double taxation
- Potential self-employment tax savings once your profit is meaningful
- Available to eligible US-based owners who file the election in time
Add-on services
One team for everything around your company.
Add only what you need. Every service is handled by the same team that files your formation, so nothing falls through the cracks.
Registered Agent
A compliant registered agent with a physical address in your state of formation, receiving legal and government mail and forwarding it to you — keeping the company in good standing all year.
EIN / Tax ID
Your federal Employer Identification Number, filed on the SS-4 — including for non-US founders with no Social Security Number, so you can open a bank account, hire, and get paid.
ITIN Assistance
Guidance obtaining an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number when your situation genuinely requires one, with a clear checklist of the documents the IRS expects.
US Bank Account Help
Your US LLC and EIN are compatible with modern banks like Mercury, Wise, and Relay — we prepare the exact paperwork you need to apply remotely. We're not affiliated with any bank; approval is theirs.
Operating Agreement
A ready-to-sign operating agreement or corporate bylaws tailored to your ownership split — defining roles, contributions, and how decisions get made. Recommended for every entity.
Annual Compliance
Annual report and franchise-tax reminders plus filing support, year after year, so your company never quietly falls out of good standing with the state.
