Your US LLC just got a $25,000 problem.
Foreign-owned LLC? The IRS expects Form 5472 every April 15. Miss it and the fine starts at $25,000 — even with zero revenue. We're the founder-built tool that keeps you compliant for $19/month, not $1,999/year.
Built by a non-US founder who learned this the hard way.

Three things doola, Firstbase, and your accountant didn't tell you.
"Disregarded entity" doesn't mean disregarded by the IRS. Your single-member LLC is invisible for income tax. But Form 5472 still applies. The $25,000 penalty applies. Even if you made $0.
Form 5472 cannot be e-filed. You have to fax or mail it to a specific IRS address in Ogden, Utah. From wherever you live. Most founders have no idea.
Capital contributions count as reportable transactions. That $5,000 you wired to open your Mercury account? Reportable. Year one of your LLC, you already triggered the filing requirement.

Questions founders actually ask.
No. We're a software product built by a non-US founder who got burned. We partner with licensed US CPAs for filings when you want it done-for-you.
Their compliance plans cost $899-$1,999/year. We cost $190/year. We do less, but it's what 90% of solo non-resident founders actually need.
Yes. The IRS allows self-preparation. Our templates and step-by-step guides walk you through every box. Most users finish in 30-45 minutes.
Our partner CPA can file late + draft a "reasonable cause" letter for penalty abatement. First-time filers usually get it waived.
On Firebase (Google Cloud, US region), encrypted at rest. We store the minimum we need to remind you and pre-fill forms — formation state, EIN, owner country. No bank connections, no Plaid, no payroll integrations. We are not collecting your transactions.
We support all 50 states for federal filings. State-level annual reports: we cover Wyoming, Delaware, Florida, New Mexico, Texas, Nevada, and California in MVP. If your state isn't in those seven, email us — we'll add it within two weeks and refund you if we don't.
We don't file for you
We're software, not a CPA. You file or our partner CPA does.
Built on IRS official sources
Every deadline cross-referenced with IRS.gov and state SOS sites.
