Can Claude Code really incorporate a company?

Yes. Claude Code connects to Corply to form Delaware C-Corps. It gathers the application, prepares documents, and coordinates personal approvals and signatures. A human reviews each state filing.

Do my cofounders need Claude Code too?

No. Each cofounder can review the documents and sign personally in a secure browser from an emailed link. They do not need Claude Code or a terminal. They sign in with the invited email and confirm the company invitation.

Is an e-signature from a terminal legally binding?

Yes. Corply captures signatures under ESIGN/UETA with a full audit bundle of signer identity, consent, timestamps, and document hashes, the same legal basis web e-sign tools rely on.

Formation is quoted by entity and number of founders using the managed 83(b) service. The itemized calculator at corply.dev/pricing shows the formation charge, service fees, and annual costs before payment.

I use a different agent, not Claude Code.

Corply is also a plain MCP server at https://corply.dev/mcp, so any MCP-capable agent can connect. The agent setup guide at https://corply.dev/skills.md covers Codex, Cursor, and OpenCode.

Set up Corply in Claude Code

Add Corply once:

In Claude Code, open /mcp, select Corply, and Authenticate.

Then open /mcp inside Claude Code, select Corply, and choose Authenticate. Select your intended account in the browser and finish sign-in.

If Claude Code shows Corply as pending approval (it was added from a project .mcp.json), approve it first. When Claude sets Corply up for you, it asks one setup question that covers adding, approving and signing in.

Ask Claude to verify the connected account, then continue your original goal.

What happens when you ask Claude to incorporate

Corply collects the company name, founder identities, addresses, stock ownership, directors, officers, and applicable vesting and 83(b) choices. Each founder reviews and signs their documents. Payment and human review follow before the Delaware filing.

State acceptance supplies the actual formation date and file number. Corply then prepares corporate records and EIN materials through the disclosed authorization workflow. Your approvals, documents, deadlines, evidence, and company context remain attached to the organization for banking, fundraising, and diligence.

Use the agent or the browser

Claude Code can guide the application in conversation and keep track of the company's next steps. Cofounders review and sign in a secure browser, regardless of the client you use. Delaware C-Corp founders can also complete the application directly on the website: create an account and choose “Start a new C-corp.” Both paths keep documents, approvals, and filing evidence in Corply.
