Starting a virtual assistant business in 2026 means navigating the complexities of company formation. As a VA, you need to decide between operating as a sole proprietor or forming an LLC or corporation. Two platforms aiming to simplify this process are Lovie and Clerky. This comparison focuses on which platform better serves the unique needs of virtual assistants, especially considering low initial revenue and the need for W-9s with EINs for client privacy.
For virtual assistants seeking a modern, AI-powered approach with comprehensive tools and integrations, Lovie emerges as the stronger choice. While Clerky offers a more traditional legal tech experience, Lovie's AI-driven features and focus on automation provide greater efficiency and cost savings, particularly beneficial for VAs managing multiple clients and scaling their businesses.
