Registered Agents Inc. (RAI) is an American registered agent firm founded in 2008. The company provides business formation services to set up limited liability companies and corporations and acts as a point of contact for legal notices. The company is headquartered in Wyoming where approximately 120,000 companies are associated with its address.[1][2]
RAI is known for obscuring ownership of the businesses it forms by listing its address and, in some reported instances, the use of fictitious personas as the agent of record on clients' business formation documents.[3][2][1]
In 2024, the company received media coverage after acquiring Epik, a domain registrar and web hosting company known for providing domain registration services to the alt-right.[3][4][2]
