Incorporate Now — and As What?

Decide whether it's time to incorporate, and what to form — LLC, C-corp, or your home-country equivalent — based on what you're actually doing, not startup folklore.

What you walk away with

A made decision — plus a shareable summary capturing what you chose, the reasoning behind it, what you ruled out, and what would make you revisit it. There's no document to build here: the thinking is the deliverable.

12 steps in the full journey.

The first 3 questions

This is where the conversation starts. Each answer shapes what gets asked next.

  1. 01Where does the venture stand — idea, building, revenue, users? What's prompting the incorporation question right now — an investor, a customer, a cofounder, or just feeling like it's 'time'?
  2. 02Where do you live, where are you a tax resident, and where are your customers likely to be? These drive everything — 'Delaware C-corp' is not a universal answer.
  3. 03Who's involved — just you, a cofounder, contractors? Has anyone started writing code or signing anything on the venture's behalf?

+ 9 more questions across discovery, validation, and the creative brief — each one adapting to what you've already said.
