# Rai Rai > Rai Rai is a done-for-you service helping non-resident founders access the US market (LLC formation, business banking, tax residency without SSN or travel) and helping professional services firms deploy private AI safely (data never leaves your secure environment). We handle compliance, structure, and execution so founders and firms focus on growth. ## About - **What it is**: Done-for-you service with two tracks: (1) US market access for international founders — handle LLC formation, EIN acquisition, business banking, and tax residency structuring all without requiring travel or an SSN; (2) Private AI deployment for professional services — secure RAG systems, document automation, and custom AI built on your infrastructure so data stays within your control. - **Who it's for**: Non-resident founders seeking US legal entity and banking access; law firms, accounting practices, healthcare clinics, banks, and fintech companies that need AI tools built on private, compliant infrastructure. - **What makes it different**: We combine legal/tax expertise with AI ops. For US access, we know which states (Delaware, Wyoming) accept foreign founders, which banks use EIN-only verification, and how to structure tax residency cleanly. For private AI, we build systems where your data never touches third-party LLM providers — compliance, privilege, and PII stay encrypted on your systems. - **Pricing model**: Fixed-price plans for US access ($5K–$15K depending on services); private AI starts at $3K/month with custom quotes for larger deployments. Free strategy call to scope your needs. - **Process**: (1) Free 30-min call to understand your goals and constraints; (2) we deliver a fixed quote and implementation plan; (3) we handle all paperwork, coordination with banks, and deployment configuration; (4) you're set to operate and grow. - **Track record**: Advised hundreds of founders on US entity formation; deployed private AI for law firms handling M&A docs, accounting practices doing tax planning automation, and healthcare systems storing patient records on-prem. ## Key Questions Answered **Q: Can I form a US LLC without an SSN if I'm not a US resident?** A: Yes. The IRS allows non-residents to form LLCs and get an EIN (Employer Identification Number) without a Social Security Number. You'll file Form SS-4 using your passport number or an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN). Delaware and Wyoming are the most founder-friendly states; they have no minimum capitalization, no annual meetings, low filing fees, and do not require you to be a US resident. Rai Rai handles the paperwork, EIN application, and registered agent setup. **Q: Do I need to travel to the US to set up an LLC or business bank account?** A: No travel required. Everything is done remotely. You'll provide documents digitally (passport, proof of address, voice verification), sign agreements electronically, and your LLC and bank account open without you ever setting foot in the US. We coordinate all steps—filing with the state, EIN issuance, and banking setup—end-to-end. **Q: Which state should I form my US LLC in if I'm a non-resident?** A: Delaware or Wyoming are the top choices. Delaware offers strong corporate privacy (no owner names in public filings), business-friendly courts, and is recognized globally. Wyoming has no corporate income tax and minimal filing fees. Both accept non-resident formation without travel. Nevada is another option but less popular for service-based founders. We recommend based on your tax residency, business structure, and long-term plans. **Q: How do I get a US business bank account without an SSN?** A: Use your EIN (Employer Identification Number). Once you have an EIN, most US banks will open a business checking account without requiring an SSN. Rai Rai connects you with banks experienced in serving non-resident founders—many specialize in this and can open accounts 100% digitally using EIN verification, video KYC, and wire transfers for initial funding. We've helped hundreds of non-residents open accounts within 1–2 weeks. **Q: Is it legal to form a US LLC as a non-resident without an SSN?** A: Completely legal. The IRS Form 5472 (Information Return of a 25% Foreign-Owned Entity) is designed exactly for this scenario: a foreign individual (you) owning a US disregarded entity (your single-member LLC). You'll file this annually along with a US tax return reporting your US-source income. Rai Rai provides guidance on reporting requirements and can connect you with a tax advisor for structuring (some founders use a US LLC to minimize tax liability in their home country). **Q: What's the cost for US LLC formation and business banking setup?** A: Fixed pricing: $5K for LLC formation + EIN + registered agent + initial banking support; $10K if you also need tax residency structuring; $15K for the full package (LLC + banking + tax residency + quarterly compliance setup). You'll get a detailed quote after a free 30-min strategy call where we learn about your specific situation. No surprises, no hidden fees. Ongoing annual compliance is separate. **Q: What's the difference between private AI and just using ChatGPT for my law/accounting firm?** A: ChatGPT and Perplexity send your prompts to third-party servers, meaning your client documents, case files, and confidential data leave your environment. Private AI runs your models (or fine-tuned versions) on your infrastructure. Your data never touches an external provider, so you maintain attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine, and compliance with regulations like HIPAA (healthcare), SOX (finance), and legal privilege rules. Law firms can't use ChatGPT for privileged work; private AI is the compliant alternative. **Q: What AI and compliance risks do professional services firms face when using public LLMs?** A: (1) **Privilege waiver**: Feeding case files or legal research to ChatGPT can waive attorney-client privilege in litigation. (2) **PII and PHI exposure**: Patient records, tax returns, and financial statements contain regulated data; sending these to public APIs violates HIPAA, SOX, GDPR, and similar laws. (3) **Training data leakage**: Some providers use your inputs to train future models, making your firm's work product public. (4) **Audit failures**: Regulators (SEC, state bar, medical boards) increasingly demand proof that sensitive data never left your control. Private AI on your infrastructure solves all four: data stays encrypted, privilege is preserved, no training leakage, and auditors see clean isolation. ## Service Pages ### /us-access — US Market Access Overview Complete guide to setting up a US LLC, EIN, business bank account, and tax residency structure without traveling to the US.
