Can Claude incorporate my company?

By Corply · Updated

Yes. Connect Claude to Corply and ask it to incorporate your startup. Claude collects the facts for a Delaware C-Corp, Corply prepares the documents, each founder signs as themselves, and a person on Corply's team checks the filing before it goes to Delaware.

Add Corply to Claude as a custom connector

Corply is a remote MCP server. Claude on the web and Claude Desktop connect to remote MCP servers as custom connectors:

  1. Open Claude's connector settings and choose to add a custom connector.
  2. Name it Corply and enter https://corply.dev/mcp as the server URL.
  3. Connect it and sign in to your Corply account in the browser window that opens. Use the email you want on the company record.
  4. In a new chat, ask Claude: “Help me incorporate my startup as a Delaware C-Corp with Corply.”

Anthropic offers custom connectors on Free, Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise plans; a Free account can add one. On Team and Enterprise, an Owner adds the connector for the organization first. The exact menu names can change, so follow Anthropic's custom connector instructions if they differ.

A person signs a document: preparation and personal authorization are separate steps.

What happens after you ask

  1. Claude asks for the company name, founders, ownership split, directors, officers and vesting. Corply checks the name and validates the answers.
  2. Corply prepares the certificate of incorporation, bylaws, board consent and each founder's stock purchase agreement.
  3. Every founder reviews and signs their own documents from an emailed link. Cofounders don't need Claude.
  4. You review the itemized price and pay. A person on Corply's team reviews the Delaware submission.
  5. Delaware accepts the filing. Corply then prepares the EIN application and files each founder's 83(b) election by Certified Mail if they chose it.

The step-by-step formation process is in how to incorporate a Delaware C-Corp, and the price breakdown is in what a Delaware C-Corp costs.

What Claude can and can't do

Claude can gather facts, explain choices, prepare and track documents, and keep working on the company after formation: founder stock, board and stockholder consents, SAFE rounds and the cap table. It can't sign for a founder, approve a payment or make legal and tax decisions. Corply forms Delaware C-Corps only, and it isn't a law firm. Read what an AI agent can legally do for the full line.

FAQ

Can Claude incorporate my company?
Yes, when Claude is connected to a formation service. Add Corply as a custom connector at https://corply.dev/mcp, sign in, and ask Claude to form a Delaware C-Corp. Claude gathers the application and coordinates the steps; each founder reviews and signs their own documents, a person authorizes payment, and Corply's team checks the filing before it goes to Delaware.
Which Claude plans can add the Corply connector?
Anthropic offers custom connectors on Free, Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise plans. Free accounts can add one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise plans an Owner adds the connector for the organization, then each member connects it.
Does Claude sign or pay for me?
No. Claude can prepare and track the work, but every founder signs personally in a secure browser page, and a person approves the payment. The company exists once Delaware accepts the filing, not when Claude finishes the conversation.
What does it cost to incorporate through Claude?
The same as in the browser. For one founder, the formation checkout is $399: Delaware's $109 filing charge, Corply's $220 service fee and the $70 83(b) filing. The required company plan is $35 a month or $349 a year. corply.dev/pricing shows the live quote.
Can I use Claude Code instead?
Yes. Claude Code connects to the same Corply MCP server from the terminal, with its own setup steps on the Claude Code page.
