What is Startup Helper?
Startup Helper is a specialized agent within the Openclaw Skills ecosystem designed to act as a one-stop consultant for entrepreneurs entering the Chinese market. It demystifies the high-friction administrative processes required for legal compliance, ranging from initial business license acquisition to complex technical filings like ICP recordal for web and app deployment.
By leveraging this skill, founders can navigate the intricate requirements of the 2024 Company Law, manage tax registrations, and coordinate with major cloud providers like Alibaba Cloud and Tencent Cloud. It serves as a bridge between technical execution and legal compliance, ensuring that your startup's foundation is solid and regulatory-ready.
Startup Helper Use Cases
- Initiating company registration and selecting the appropriate legal entity (LLC, Partnership, etc.) in various Chinese cities.
- Navigating the ICP filing process (beian) for deploying websites or mobile apps on domestic servers.
- Managing trademark applications across various classifications like Class 9 (Software) or Class 42 (IT Services).
- Coordinating bank account openings and setting up mandatory social security and housing fund accounts.
- Handling initial tax reporting and ensuring compliance with 'zero-declaration' requirements for new companies.
How Startup Helper Works
- The agent analyzes the user's specific business stage (e.g., pre-registration, server deployment, or brand protection).
- It provides a localized roadmap based on the target city and business scope, highlighting necessary physical and digital documentation.
- For technical steps, it guides the user through cloud provider integrations (Alibaba/Tencent) to secure domain certificates and server IPs for filing.
- It generates a dynamic checklist of tasks, including legal representative verification and official seal carving.
- The agent monitors the timeline, offering reminders for time-sensitive steps like the 30-day tax registration window after license issuance.
Startup Helper Setup
To integrate the Startup Helper into your agentic workflow via Openclaw Skills, use the following configuration:
# Example command to initialize a startup workflow
