Start Your LLC
in Minutes

ZenBusiness provides an LLC service that helps entrepreneurs form a limited liability company (LLC) online. We manage the required paperwork, ensure quick and accurate filing with the state, and provide ongoing compliance and business management services.

The time to create an LLC with ZenBusiness depends on your state’s processing speed, but your ZenBusiness package also affects how quickly your filing is processed on our end.

The state’s turnaround time varies by state and time of year, and ZenBusiness cannot change how fast the Secretary of State approves filings. What we can control is how quickly we prepare and submit your paperwork once we have all your information.

With our Starter Package, ZenBusiness typically processes your LLC filing in about 7–10 business days. With our Pro and Premium Packages, ZenBusiness provides 1‑day processing for your LLC filing.

All processing times are based on receiving complete and accurate information and do not include the state’s own processing time.

The cost of starting an LLC with ZenBusiness depends on which package you choose and the state filing fees for your LLC.

Starter Package: Starts at $0 plus state fees. It includes a business name availability search, preparation and filing of your articles of organization, electronic document access, a personalized dashboard with unlimited storage, our 100% accuracy guarantee, Worry-Free Compliance free for the first year (renews at $199 per year), lifetime support, compliance alerts, Personal Velo AI guidance, our mobile app, partner offers, and a 30-day free trial of the Business AI website builder. The website builder trial is preselected at checkout and can be removed before you buy, and it renews at $15 monthly after 30 days. Processing typically takes 7–10 business days, with an option to add rush processing for $79.

Pro Package: Starts at $199 plus state fees. It adds 1-day processing, an operating agreement template, an EIN, the logo builder kit, and a Next business insurance quote. Pro renews at $199 annually.

Premium Package: $299 plus state fees, and renews at $299 annually. It includes all Pro Package services plus the business documents library, Advanced Compliance Protection, a domain name with privacy, a business email address, and a business advisor consultation.

Registered agent service is not included in any package. It is available on any package for $199 a year.

Forming an LLC with ZenBusiness costs your state filing fee plus the ZenBusiness package price and any optional add-ons you choose. State filing fees are set by each state and are paid on top of any ZenBusiness package price.

ZenBusiness can help you with this through our amendment filing service or through Worry-Free Compliance, which is included in Pro and Premium packages, and free for the first year with Starter package.

At this time, ZenBusiness does not support the formation or maintenance of Obligated Member Entities (OMEs). OMEs are a specialized type of LLC structure with unique statutory requirements, including additional governance, ownership, and professional liability considerations that differ from standard LLC formations.
