An autonomous incorporation agent, delivered as a Claude Code plugin, that forms a Delaware C-Corp end-to-end — guided application, generated legal documents, cofounder e-signature, and a human-reviewed Delaware filing.

Can an AI agent incorporate my company?

Yes — that is what Corply is for. Your agent runs the application, documents, and cofounder e-signatures end-to-end; the legally binding acts stay human, and every Delaware submission is human-reviewed. Works from Claude Code (plugin) or any MCP-capable agent.

Is Corply a Stripe Atlas or Clerky alternative?

Yes — the same outcome, a venture-ready Delaware C-Corp with EIN, founder stock, and an 83(b) workflow, but driven from Claude Code instead of a web portal, with a flat fee and no hourly attorneys.

In Claude Code, run: claude plugin marketplace add corply-dev/corply-plugin, then claude plugin install corply. Run /incorporate and sign in once with Google on the first tool call.

Do all cofounders need to sign?

Yes. Each cofounder reviews the PDFs via a magic link and signs from their own Claude Code under a binding ESIGN/UETA audit trail.

Does Corply file with Delaware automatically?

No. Every Delaware submission is reviewed by a human before it is filed.

Is Corply a law firm?

No. Corply prepares documents and filings and does not provide legal advice. It is operated by 0Lumen Labs Corp.

First-time founders, international and non-U.S. cofounder teams incorporating a U.S. startup, and technical founders who prefer one command over web portals.

Is Corply a Clerky alternative?

For formation, yes — both produce a venture-ready Delaware C-Corp with the documents investors expect. Clerky's moat is its post-formation paperwork library; Corply's is that the entire process, and your company's records afterward, live where you already work: your agent.

Do lawyers accept the documents?

Both products generate the standard venture documents — certificate, bylaws, incorporator action, board consent, founder stock with vesting and IP assignment. Any startup lawyer will recognize the set; yours should always review anything specific to your situation.

Which should a solo technical founder pick?

If you live in Claude Code, Corply turns incorporation into one command with human review at the filing step. If you're already deep in a lawyer-led process, Clerky slots into that workflow well.
