About Stripe Atlas
Stripe Atlas is a platform for forming a company in Delaware, offering C corp or LLC options. It serves global founders by simplifying incorporation, providing a company tax ID (EIN), issuing founder equity, and handling 83(b) elections to launch a startup quickly.

Key Features
Atlas moves you from formation to banking and payments with built-in templates and post‑incorporation steps, so founders don’t juggle multiple vendors. In one place, it covers incorporation, tax ID, equity, and 83(b) filings:
Incorporation & Compliance
Generate, sign, and file incorporation documents; within two business days, you’ll be incorporated and ready to bank, fundraise, and accept payments.
Post-Incorporation Essentials
EIN, founder equity, and filing your 83(b) election with templates approved by Cooley LLP.
Legal Templates & Guidance
Templates created with Cooley LLP; information is not legal advice and Atlas is not a law firm.
Banking, Payments & Discounts
Open a business bank account and start accepting payments after incorporation; includes one year of free Stripe card processing (up to $100k) and discounts on Mercury, Carta, and AWS (over $50k).
Summary
Best for early-stage startups, founder operations teams, and small businesses seeking fast incorporation and immediate banking and payments.
