How the order came together

Filing Shortlist puts 28% of the weight on three-year price and 28% on what the price covers. The remaining 44% goes to renewal terms, fit for the state and price clarity, and for Idaho the deciding factor was three-year price.

Idaho Registered Agent.co adds up to $297 over three years, which is $150 below Mainstay Filing. A company with a Idaho agent need gains little from fifty-state reach, so the smaller yearly price settled it.

Every criterion and weight is set out on How we rank.
