Re privacy: At least in Delaware, I can have an LLC without having my name and address in the public domain, so such a setup would be ideal and it's perfectly legal. Like you said, it varies by state, so here's hoping that Stripe chooses a state which at least lets owners keep their address out of the public domain if not their name.
Another suggestion : setup an email capture form for people interested in LLC support, I suspect the interest would be far greater than what Stripe ever had for C-corps. As a bootstrapper, you know that there are far more lifestyle business owners who will never consider setting up a C-corp, but will jump at the chance of setting up an LLC though Atlas.
LLCs also have better privacy than C-corps. No information is in the public domain if everything is done through an agent. For C-corps, name and address of the owners are part of the public domain and can be obtained by anyone by contacting the relevant authorities.
Also looking forward to the "Payouts only" feature in Stripe connect.
Another question : how many members are in the private Atlas community forum?
In the mean time is there something like Stripe Atlas for LLCs?
