One thing that doesn't help is that you have a founder name on your about page, but I'm unable to find that person where I would expect. I also don't see your company registered as an LLC in Colorado.

I'm sorry, everything about this looks like a scam.

Our company is registered in Delaware, we do have remote-office in Colorado where I live It is not a scam, almost all startups uses Delaware incorporation to be able to raise money
Also of note, the address you list in Colorado does not have your name on the property.
I live there personally, I can provide any documents requested if Stripe needs
I'm inclined to believe you (as putting your name out, and having a random address is fine). But I'm used to seeing profiles for founders on a website. You have a name listed on there that I can find no payments or tech history for (I could just be terrible at searching). Normally there are other nuggets on the internet that would help provide credibility to your history/profile, which helps establish some trust.
