Comprehensive Guide

Base LLC Formation Pricing

As published on each company's own site in October 2026, both Bizee and Swyft Filings publish a $0 Basic LLC package plus the state's own filing fee. Bizee's higher tiers are Standard at $199 and Premium at $299. Swyft Filings' higher tiers are Standard at $169, marked down from a $199 list price, and Premium at $269, marked down from a $299 list price.

Processing Time Differences

Swyft Filings publishes specific processing-time commitments by tier: Basic takes 7 to 10 business days, Standard takes 3 business days, and Premium takes 1 business day. Bizee's published materials do not break out processing time by tier in the same way; its Basic tier is a standard, non-expedited filing, with faster state processing available in some states as a separate, state-charged expedited fee rather than a Bizee-tier upgrade.

What the Paid Tiers Add

Swyft Filings' $169 Standard tier adds an operating agreement, an EIN application, and organizational minutes on top of the faster 3-business-day processing. Its $269 Premium tier adds same-day processing, a business address, a digital formation kit, and unlimited attorney consultations. Bizee's $199 Standard and $299 Premium tiers include an operating agreement and EIN filing as part of the package, where in Bizee's $0 Basic tier those are separate add-ons, published at $99 and $70 respectively.

Registered Agent Pricing Is the Largest Gap

This is where the two companies differ most. Bizee includes registered agent service free for the first year with any package (Bizee's own notes mention it has tested shorter free periods of three to twelve months depending on package), renewing afterward at $149 a year. Swyft Filings bills registered agent service at $149 or more per quarter, which works out to roughly $596 a year, and does not show a separate discounted first-year rate, meaning the first year and renewal are effectively the same published price. Confirm the exact current billing structure directly with Swyft Filings before assuming a quarterly rate will not change.

Operating Agreement and Annual Report Pricing

Swyft Filings' standalone operating agreement add-on is published at $35 (it is included free in the Standard and Premium tiers). Bizee's Basic-tier operating agreement add-on is published at $99. For annual report filing, both companies publish a similar figure: Bizee's comparison page lists $99 plus the state fee, and Swyft Filings' own blog post cites the same $99-plus-state-fees figure, though Swyft Filings does not have a dedicated annual report pricing page showing this number.

How LLC Register compares

LLC Register's registered agent service is $99 a year, the same price at renewal. LLC formation in year one and annual report filing are included, while most providers charge $99 to $199 a year extra for annual report filing. State fees are passed through at cost and shown before checkout.

What to Confirm Before You Choose

If registered agent cost matters most to your decision, Swyft Filings' roughly $596-a-year billing is the figure to weigh most carefully against Bizee's $149-a-year renewal. If processing speed matters most, Swyft Filings publishes a specific business-day commitment by tier where Bizee's published materials do not break this out the same way. Confirm both figures directly on each company's current site before ordering.

Practical Considerations

Quarterly Billing Can Look Smaller Than It Is

Swyft Filings' registered agent service is billed at $149-plus per quarter rather than a single annual figure, which can look smaller at a glance than an annual number even though it totals roughly $596 a year. Always convert a quarterly or monthly price to an annual total before comparing it against a provider that publishes a flat yearly rate.

Processing Time Is a Real, Checkable Feature

Unlike some marketing claims, Swyft Filings' published business-day figures by tier are specific and checkable against your own state's processing experience. If turnaround speed matters for your timeline, a published number like this is more useful to compare than a general reputation for speed.

Marked-Down List Prices Are a Common Industry Pattern

Swyft Filings' Standard and Premium tiers are shown as marked down from a higher list price ($199 to $169, $299 to $269). This is a common industry pricing pattern; confirm whether the discounted price is time-limited or standard before assuming it will still apply later.

Confirm Current Figures Directly

Swyft Filings' annual report and registered agent figures used here come from its own blog post and registered-agent page rather than a single consolidated pricing page, so confirm current numbers directly with Swyft Filings before ordering.

This Is Not Legal or Tax Advice

Which tier and add-ons make sense for your LLC depends on your specific situation and timeline. Talk to a tax professional about ongoing compliance costs, and verify all prices directly on each company's current site before purchasing.
