Comparison
Corppy vs Stripe Atlas: what you actually get.
Stripe Atlas is a great product for forming a Delaware C-Corp. But if you need help setting up a US bank account, state tax registration, or to see the real total before you sign up — Atlas stops short.

Key differences
Where the real difference is.
- 01
Five launch states, not just Delaware
Atlas forms Delaware companies. Delaware suits a startup raising venture capital; it is not automatically the right home for a business that will operate somewhere else. Corppy currently supports Delaware, Florida, Nevada, Texas, and Wyoming and recommends among them based on where you'll actually trade.
- 02
Guided bank account setup
Atlas connects you to Stripe for payments but leaves bank account setup to you. Corppy walks you through opening a US business bank account at Mercury, Stripe, or Wise — approval is still the bank's decision, but you're not figuring it out alone.
- 03
State tax registration handled
Atlas doesn't handle state tax ID, sales tax permit, or SUTA registration — you find someone else for those. Corppy files them for you, priced per registration and added to your total before you pay, never after.
Being fair
When Atlas might be enough.
If you only need a Delaware C-Corp formed and nothing else — no help with a bank account, no state tax registration — Stripe Atlas is a solid option. It's a well-built product with a strong brand.
But most foreign founders need more than a filed certificate. They need help navigating a bank account application as a first-time applicant. They need their state tax ID and sales tax permit registered, not left to figure out alone. And they'd rather know the real total before checkout than after.
That's where Corppy steps in. Same states, same entity types. Everything else included in one shown total.
