Does this mean you're also hoping to expand into Delaware PBCs, too? Lots of open source projects are considering this approach due to a combination of poor response to open source nonprofits from the IRS and flexibility in figuring out their funding sources. There's only trivial differences to a C Corp in terms of filing.

I'd been planning to reach out to Stripe about this when it made sense; I probably should've just emailed you! We're advising folks we're bringing onto our Stripe Connect platform as managed accounts to go use Stripe Atlas where possible, but plenty have voiced support for having B Corps be part of that happy path.

Honestly, I might even just pay a lawyer at some point to open up some standardized set of docs for this.

Do you hope to have any way for Connect platforms with managed accounts to more directly refer people into Atlas? Having an API for the application process would be amazing.

I would also like to see Atlas expand to include B Corps.
+1 for Stripe Atlas support for Delaware PBCs
