What problem does it solve? Founders choosing between an LLC, S-corp, C-corp, or sole proprietorship face confusing liability, tax, and financing trade-offs, and often walk into attorney and CPA meetings unprepared. This Skill produces a neutral, informational comparison so founders arrive informed without receiving unauthorized legal or tax advice. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Four-Dimension Comparison: Evaluates sole proprietorship, partnership, LLC, S-corp, and C-corp across liability shield, tax treatment, formalities, and financing fit. - Situation-Based Shortlist: Applies triage heuristics (owner count, liability exposure, profitability, fundraising intent, multistate operations) to shortlist 1-2 structures worth discussing with professionals. - Professional Meeting Preparation: Generates framed question lists for attorneys and CPAs, plus downstream trigger flags for employment compliance, written agreements, and multistate registration. - Use Case: A sole proprietor bringing on a co-founder and planning to raise capital receives a comparison of LLC versus C-corporation, a list of questions about vesting and conversion costs, and an explicit instruction to confirm with an attorney and CPA. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to compare LLC versus S-corp versus C-corp for your situation and prepare questions for your attorney and CPA meeting.
