ZenBusiness vs Bizee Services

The best ZenBusiness package depends on how fast you want to form your LLC and how many extra tools you want for running your business.

Our Starter Package starts at $0 plus state fees and is great if you want the most affordable option. It includes a name availability search, preparation and filing of your articles of organization, electronic document access, a dashboard with unlimited storage, our 100% accuracy guarantee, a free first year of Worry-Free Compliance, lifetime support, compliance alerts, access to Velo AI assistant, our mobile app, partner offers, and a 30-day trial of website, domain, and email tools (renews at $15 monthly).

Our Pro Package starts at $199 plus state fees and is best if you want faster formation and more tools. It includes everything in the Starter Package, plus 1-day rush processing, an operating agreement template, an EIN, and a logo builder. The Pro Package renews at $199 annually.

Our Premium Package is ideal if you want the most complete bundle of services. It costs $399 plus state fees for the first year and renews at $399 annually. It includes everything in the Pro Package, plus business document templates, registered agent service, Advanced Compliance Protection, and a business advisor consultation.

Bizee does not offer AI-powered business guidance as of August 2026. Their platform is built around formation filings and compliance services rather than conversational support.

Velo is ZenBusiness’s built-in AI assistant that helps you start, stay compliant, and grow your business. It answers your questions, completes filings, and guides you through every stage of your business journey. Velo is included with every ZenBusiness plan. If AI-powered support matters to you, ZenBusiness is the clear choice.

When reviewing LLC formation services, it’s impossible to not talk about the most well-known option, LegalZoom. If you’d like to see how the two services in this comparison stack up to it, see our ZenBusiness vs. LegalZoom comparison or Bizee vs. LegalZoom comparison.

Yes. ZenBusiness offers a New York LLC publication service that handles the required newspaper notices and filing steps, so you can meet the state’s publication rules.

Bizee publishes guides explaining New York’s publication requirement but doesn’t offer a service to complete it for you. You’d coordinate with the newspapers and file the Certificate of Publication on your own.

For more detail on how the process works and what New York requires, see our guide to New York publication requirements.

Both ZenBusiness and Bizee offer refunds, but the rules and timeframes are very different for each company.

Bizee’s refund policy is very strict. They only grant refunds if you request one before they send your money to the state, which they say is typically within 24 hours of placing your order. After they submit payment to the state, they do not grant refunds.

Meanwhile, the ZenBusiness refund policy is one of the best in the industry. While many competitors may have vague refund policies or may even refuse refunds, ZenBusiness offers a 60-day money-back guarantee. You can review all the details in our official policy here: /support-terms/#refund-policy.

Yes, there’s no legal requirement to use a service or an attorney. In fact, a lot of entrepreneurs choose to do just that, forgoing professional assistance to form their own LLCs. If this is something you’d like to do, check out our step-by-step LLC guide. But, if you find this red tape confusing and burdensome (as many budding entrepreneurs do), we’re here to guide you. Our business formation experts have helped launch more than 950,000 businesses.

ZenBusiness provides more built-in help with ongoing compliance requirements than Bizee because ZenBusiness offers Worry-Free Compliance with every LLC formation package. It’s included in both Pro and Premium packages, and the Starter package includes a year’s free trial (renews at $199/year).

Both ZenBusiness and Bizee offer services that can help you keep your business compliant over time. With ZenBusiness, Worry-Free Compliance is built into all formation plans (for the first year at least), which includes compliance alerts and support to help you stay in good standing.

Bizee takes a different approach: compliance alerts come with their formation packages, but the filings themselves are sold separately. They charge $99 per amendment and $129 per annual report, or $99 per year for their Unlimited State Filings plan. Those same filings are already covered by Worry-Free Compliance.

Both companies rate well with customers. ZenBusiness and Bizee each hold a 4.8 rating on Trustpilot. The difference shows up in third-party accreditation and in what each company stands behind. ZenBusiness holds an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau, and as of August 2026, Bizee is not BBB accredited. ZenBusiness also backs its work with a 100% Accuracy Guarantee. If we make a filing error, we correct it at no cost to you. Bizee doesn’t publish an equivalent guarantee.
