Why we incorporated J7Soft in Delaware

We chose Delaware because it's the standard. Standard means familiar to investors, familiar to legal counsel, familiar to courts. For a company building a portfolio of products across multiple markets, having the corporate layer be boring is a feature. The interesting decisions happen in the products; the wrapper around them shouldn't surprise anyone.

The Stripe Atlas path

Stripe Atlas handles the incorporation paperwork, EIN application, registered-agent setup, and bylaws templating for a flat fee. For two founders without a US lawyer on retainer, that's the difference between a 4-week filing and a 6-month one.

What we got

• Delaware Certificate of Incorporation, filed Aug 18, 2025.
• EIN 32-0825331 from the IRS.
• A registered agent in Delaware.
• Boilerplate bylaws good enough for a two-founder company.
• A bank-account opening path with Mercury or Brex.

The interesting work — the product portfolio — starts after the C-Corp is real. Standardizing the structure means we don't have to think about it again until we raise.
