Ask HN: Using Stripe Atlas to start a LLC for a small side project?

4 points by zffr 21 hours ago

I'm working on a small side project that I think can make some money. I'm okay to pay Stripe Atlas's fees, but I want to minimize the hassle of creating and maintaining the business entity.

For anyone who has used Stripe Atlas in the past, would you recommend it?

Are there alternative services I should consider instead?

If it is relevant I'm based out of NYC.

* I want to minimize the hassle of creating and maintaining the business entity*

An accountant would be my starting point because accounting is mostly where the hassle lies. Good luck.

I used it twice. It's good. You can also just take payments under your own name if it's a small project but otherwise stripe atlas is good. Only pay the delaware llc fee every year and that's it.
