What the Team is Saying
What We Do
Corporate Tools LLC was created to make starting, running, and organizing a business easier. We service registered agent companies, business filing services, lawyers, accountants, corporate secretaries, governance professionals, small, medium, and massive corporate conglomerates.
Corporate Tools LLC is family-owned and operated, employs over 1,200 good humans across the nation, and services over 3 million active businesses nationwide. As we've grown, we've maintained a 95% employee retention rate. We have no debt, no investors, no venture capital, and no private equity.
What does it mean to be family-owned and operated?
Well, it's not perfect. But growth, profits, KPIs, endless investor meetings, warrants, options pools, vesting, or manipulating employees to be indentured servants in exchange for paper shares that won't make you rich, aren't things we have to deal with here.
We try to do good work and see where it goes. That's our actual mission statement. We try to make our customers and our employees happy. We get to focus on that versus making investors happy. We are well aware of competing with startups, and VC and PE-funded, or worse yet, public companies' total compensation packages, so we bring it up. We are different. Our packages include an excellent salary and 401K to buy stock wherever you want. We try to make our overall benefits better each year as we grow. We offer tough challenges—focusing on the journey as the reward, not the finish line. We try to hire people we enjoy being around.
We're not a platform or an AI cool guy place. We're not software as a service/whatever is the cool thing that gives investors a reason to ask for a higher multiple on their next round of stock dilution. Whoops, I mean, investment for the future.
We make business entity compliance tools. We power over 50,000 Professional Services that do registered agent service, corporate filings, VoIP phones, credit card processing, and various tech products. Here's a few examples of industry leaders riding on our backbone:

We made a CRM system but focused on a whole stack of solutions for our business services customers and now we're pretty busy and could use your help. Thanks for looking!
Why Work With Us
A mid sized company servicing millions of clients, employing hundreds, but being family owned and operated with no debt, investors, VC, or PE in the tech space is unique. We offer stability, flexibility, and an opportunity to make a high impact almost immediately. We don't sell data to third parties. We're extremely open source and privacy focused.
