Company profile
researched Aug 2026Besolo operated a platform for "businesses of one" — freelancers, solopreneurs, fractional executives, consultants, independents and creators — combining benefits access, tax handling and business administration in a single subscription service. The platform covered entity formation and compliance (LLC and S Corp), annual and quarterly tax filings supported by US-based tax professionals, integrated accounting, time tracking and invoicing, and benefits including a solo 401(k), dental, vision and pet coverage, with PPO healthcare, life and accident options for S Corp members. Besolo described its model as combining software tooling with human guidance, committing to respond to member questions within one business day.
The company was described by investor Everywhere Ventures as a technology-driven PEO platform serving high-earning self-employed workers with corporate-level benefits and back-office tools. In February 2025 it launched Solo LLC as a nationally available service, while its S Corp offering was available in California, Colorado, Arizona and Georgia. Besolo said its platform produced more than $10,000 in annual tax savings for most of its members.
In November 2025, Lettuce Financial announced it had acquired Besolo, characterizing it as a benefits access startup whose health, life, dental and vision offerings would be added to Lettuce's AI-powered operating system for solopreneurs. Besolo's founders joined Lettuce to lead its healthcare initiative.
Founding story
According to the company, its co-founders each had over a decade of independent working experience and built Besolo to help members across the United States design independent working lives. Mark Jackson was co-founder and CEO.
Business model
Besolo sold a subscription membership to independent workers. Its Solo LLC tier was priced at $129 per month and included LLC formation, EIN and registered agent support, annual tax filings with US-based tax professionals, standard benefits (solo 401(k), dental, vision, pet), a compliance calendar, integrated accounting, time tracking and invoicing, quarterly estimated tax calculations and year-end consultations. The Solo S Corp tier was priced at $349 per month and added S Corp formation, premium benefits access including PPO healthcare, life and accident coverage, and hands-on business tax filings. Both tiers included access to business insurance from Vouch.
Recurring monthly subscription fees per member, tiered by entity type: $129 per month for Solo LLC and $349 per month for Solo S Corp. State filing fees were excluded from the subscription price.
Traction
Besolo reported generating more than $10,000 in annual tax savings for most of its members and published testimonials from fractional executive customers. Its Solo LLC product reached availability in all 50 US states, with the S Corp product live in four states. Investors included JFFVentures, Everywhere Ventures, New Stack Ventures and Service Provider Capital, and the company was acquired by Lettuce Financial in November 2025.
Latest developments

Market position
Besolo competed in the emerging market of financial and administrative platforms for one-person businesses, a segment its acquirer described as underserved in tax, retirement and healthcare benefits despite nearly 50% of the US workforce being expected to freelance by 2027 and 5.6 million solos earning more than $100,000. Its acquirer, Lettuce Financial, offered an overlapping automated tax and accounting platform for solopreneurs and identified Besolo's benefits access as complementary.
Besolo positioned its offering as an integrated platform rather than a set of individual tools, bundling entity formation, compliance, tax filing, accounting and benefits under a single subscription with one support team. Its stated distinguishing feature was benefits access — including a solo 401(k) for all members and PPO healthcare, dental, life and accident options for S Corp members — that is typically tied to traditional employment. Its acquirer cited this benefits and healthcare access as the specific capability being added to its own platform.
Technology
An integrated web platform bundling entity formation and compliance workflows (a task-based compliance calendar), accounting, time tracking and invoicing, quarterly estimated tax calculations and tax filing, plus benefits enrollment covering solo 401(k), dental, vision, pet, and for S Corp members PPO healthcare, life and accident coverage. Business insurance was offered through a partnership with Vouch.
Go-to-market
Besolo sold directly to individual independent workers via self-service online sign-up for its LLC and S Corp plans, supplemented by consultations with in-house experts. It cited trust and distribution through communities of independent professionals, published a content blog covering self-employment tax, benefits and entity-selection topics, and used customer testimonials from fractional executives. Investor channels also promoted the product, including an Everywhere Ventures newsletter post and podcast episode featuring the CEO.
High-earning self-employed workers and "businesses of one": freelancers, solopreneurs, fractional executives, consultants, independent professionals, creatives and side hustlers in the United States. The Solo LLC tier targeted solos and side hustlers seeking liability protection and flexibility, while the Solo S Corp tier targeted seasoned full-time solos with larger annual incomes.
Geography
Headquartered in Boulder, Colorado. The Solo LLC offering was available in all 50 US states, while the Solo S Corp offering was available in California, Colorado, Arizona and Georgia.
