Fondo may suit you better if
- You want books kept quarterly or once a year instead of every month.
- You want an R&D tax credit study.
- You have one foreign owner and few other filings, so the TaxPass bundle covers you.
Durity may suit you if
- Your U.S. company already exists and you want the books and the federal filings, Form 5472 and FBAR included, for one published monthly price.
- You live outside the U.S. and want every deadline on one calendar, with each return sent to you to approve before it is filed.
- You don't need help forming the company: Durity doesn't offer formation yet.
