Side-by-side formation comparison

Bizee vs. Northwest Registered Agent: Which is the better fit?

Compare the current published pricing structure, included services and potential renewals before you choose.

The short answer

Bizee is Chris's preference, but the right answer depends on what you value.

Bizee stands out for one-time package pricing, its included first year of registered-agent service and the practical contents of Standard. Northwest Registered Agent may be attractive for owners who prioritize owners who emphasize privacy, registered-agent support and human assistance.

Chris's practical choice

Why I continue to use Bizee

I have used Bizee exclusively for years for my own LLCs and client formations. For many owners, Standard offers a useful middle ground: the filing, EIN and core setup documents without making the formation package itself an annual subscription.
