Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	9 Months Ended
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	Sep. 30, 2025
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation	Basis of Presentation and Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, for interim financial information. Certain information and disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, these unaudited, condensed, consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited, consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. The December 31, 2024 unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from our audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring items, necessary for the fair statement of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. There have been no significant changes in accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from those disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 and the related notes, except as noted below under Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements. The operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year ending December 31, 2025.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates are used for, however not limited to, revenue recognition, sales allowances and expected credit loss allowances, other equity securities, recoverability of long-lived assets and goodwill, income taxes, commitments and contingencies, valuation of assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations, valuation of assets in asset acquisitions, and fair value of stock-based compensation. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate the estimates compared to historical experience and other factors including the current economic and regulatory environment, which form the basis for our judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities.
Segment and Geographic Information	Segment and Geographic Information Our Chief Executive Officer, as the Chief Operating Decision Maker, or CODM, organizes our company, manages resource allocations, and measures performance on the basis of one operating segment.
Concentrations of Credit Risk	Concentrations of Credit Risk We maintain accounts in U.S. banks with funds insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC. Our bank accounts may, at times, exceed the FDIC insured limits. Financial instruments that potentially subject us to credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. Management believes that we are not exposed to any significant credit risk related to our cash or cash equivalents and have not experienced any losses in such accounts.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses	Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses Our accounts receivable balances, which are not collateralized and do not bear interest, primarily consist of amounts receivable from our credit and debit card merchant processors, customer receivables, and fees due from third parties for services purchased by our customers from such third parties. We reduce our accounts receivable for sales allowances and a reserve for potentially uncollectible receivables. We determine the amount of the allowances based on various factors, including historical collection experience, the age of our accounts receivable balances, credit quality of our customers, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect our ability to collect from customers. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when we determine that it is not probable we will collect the receivable.
Investments in Other Equity Securities	Investments in Other Equity Securities We hold an equity investment in LawPath, Pty Ltd, or LawPath, an Australian proprietary limited company that provides an online legal platform to individuals and small and medium sized businesses.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition We derive our revenue from the following sources: Transaction revenue—Transaction revenue is primarily generated from our customized legal document services upon fulfillment of these services. Transaction revenue includes filing fees and is net of cancellations, promotional discounts, sales allowances and credit reserves. We also earn fees from third-party providers in connection with lead generation activities, where referred customers purchased services that are transactional in nature. Subscription revenue—Subscription revenue is generated primarily from subscriptions to our registered agent, compliance packages, attorney advice, legal forms, tax and accounting, virtual mail and e-signature services, and software-as-a-service, or SaaS, subscriptions. We generally recognize revenue from our subscriptions ratably over the subscription term. Subscription terms generally range from thirty days to one year. Subscription revenue also includes amounts earned from third-party providers in connection with lead generation activities, where referred customers purchased services that are subscription in nature. Subscription revenue includes the transaction price allocated to bundled free trials for our subscription services and is net of promotional discounts, cancellations, sales allowances and credit reserves and payments to third party service providers. For transaction and subscription revenue, we generally collect payments and fees at the time orders are placed and prior to services being rendered. We record amounts collected for services that have not been performed as deferred revenue on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. The transaction price that we record is generally based on the contractual amounts and is reduced for estimated sales allowances for price concessions, charge-backs, sales credits and refunds, which are accounted for as variable consideration when estimating the amount of revenue to recognize.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements and Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted	Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires public entities to disclose information about their reportable segments’ significant expenses on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We adopted ASU 2023-07 as of December 31, 2024. Refer to Note 13 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards, which clarifies how an entity determines whether a profits interest or similar award is a share-based payment arrangement that is within the scope of ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation. This accounting standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within those years, and early adoption is permitted. ASU 2024-01 can be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements or prospectively to profits interest and similar awards granted or modified on or after the date at which the entity first applies this accounting standard. We early adopted ASU 2024-01 effective January 1, 2024 and will apply the amendments prospectively to profits interest and similar awards granted or modified on or after January 1, 2024. The adoption of this accounting standard did not have a material impact to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-02, Codification Improvements—Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements, to amend a variety of topics in the accounting codification by removing references to various FASB concepts statements. This accounting standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and early adoption is permitted. ASU 2024-02 can be applied retrospectively to the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in which the amendments were first applied or prospectively to all new transactions recognized on or after the date that the entity first applies the amendments. We early adopted ASU 2024-02 effective January 1, 2024 and will apply the amendments prospectively to all new transactions recognized on or after January 1, 2024. The adoption of this accounting standard did not have a material impact to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires entities to disclose more detailed information in the reconciliation of their statutory tax rate to their effective tax rate as well as disclosures of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. This accounting standard is effective for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, and will be applied prospectively with an option for retroactive application to each period in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires public business entities to disaggregate certain expense captions into specific categories in disclosures within the notes to the financial statements. As further clarified by ASU 2025-01, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), issued by FASB in January 2025, this accounting standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 should be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements, and early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In November 2024, FASB issued ASU 2024-04, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments, which clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion. ASU 2024-04 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a reporting period if the entity has also adopted ASU 2020-06 for that period. Entities may apply the new guidance prospectively to settlements of convertible debt instruments that take place during annual reporting periods (and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods) beginning after the effective date of ASU 2024-04. Retrospective application may be elected as of the beginning of the first comparative reporting period in which the entity has also applied ASU 2020-06. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which provides a practical expedient for calculating current expected credit losses for current accounts receivables and current contract assets by assuming that the current conditions as of the balance sheet date will not change for the remaining life of the asset. The accounting standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025 and is to be on a prospective basis. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, to remove all references to software development stages and to require capitalizing software costs when management has authorized and committed to funding a software project and it is probable that the project will be completed and that the software will be used to perform the function intended. The accounting standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods with early adoption permitted at the beginning of an annual reporting period. Adoption of ASU 2025-06 can use a prospective, modified retrospective or retrospective transition. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
