Stripe's awesome. I'm in YC's startup school and used Stripe Atlas to incorporate. I got an email from Stripe, sharing an opportunity to post your landing page and get feedback from Stripe's design team. That Friday I got an awesome teardown from Stripe's design team. The page (https://nanagram.co) still has quite a ways to go, but I incorporated most of their feedback and I'm super happy with it. Another cool thing — Through the grapevine I found out Patrick mentioned NanaGram at an all-hands meeting. I sent him a quick email to say thanks for the mention, not expecting a reply whatsoever, and within a few hours he responded. Stripe's kind of mind-blowing in their ability to not only build a great product but also to serve the community and be human.

How long did the Atlas setup took you? Few weeks? Update: Just saw your landing page. Pretty cool concept :)

I used them a few months ago, before startup school. I can't remember the turnaround time as I had a wedding on the horizon and that time is a blur, but I remember it being reasonable and delightful. It's totally worth the price. Doing paperwork is the last thing I want to be doing. On my last startup I must've filed for tax extensions for almost 10 years in a row. I love Stripe for removing all of those headaches.

Ah makes sense. I just signed up with them. So wondering how long it may take me. Did you also get the SV bank account through them?

I tried finding a confirmation / "you're done" email from them but can't find it, so I'm not sure how long it took. I did end up getting the SV bank hooked up but haven't moved everything over there yet.
