At first, I was uncertain about the quality of service by Opstart since it was relatively unknown compared to other popular service companies.
However, it has been a great experience with Opstart every time I rely on its expertise. It is fast, professional, easy to communicate, accurate and importantly reasonably priced for the services.
I recommend Opstat for others.
Drew
Owner of an accounting firm in Toronto, Ontario.
This is a brief testimonial to tell you about my experience as a small business Entrepreneur with “Opstart”.
I am a new small business Entrepreneur who needed to incorporate my company and services with the Government. After researching a few companies, I did speak to “Opstart” and found them very efficient and they quickly provided all the information, documentation and pricing. My experience in dealing with them was positive as they were very professional with clear timely communications. They delivered on time and sent me all the documentation and most importantly made it stress free with a successful experience.
If you are looking to get your company Incorporated, I would highly recommend getting in touch with “Opstart” who will explain the process and deliver all your documentation on time for an economical fee.
Thank you “Opstart” and wish you continued success!

Frequently Asked Questions
Got questions? We’ve got answers
What is a NUANS Preliminary Search?
A NUANS Preliminary Search is a quick check to see if a business name is available for registration.
It’s not the official NUANS Name Reservation Report required for incorporating, but our free search helps you confirm availability before taking the next steps.
How long does the Free NUANS Preliminary Search take?
Results are provided instantly online.
If you then need an official NUANS Report, Opstart delivers it within 15 minutes.
Is the Free NUANS Preliminary Search the same as a NUANS Name Reservation Report?
No. The Free NUANS Preliminary Search provides an instant indication of whether your proposed name is available.
A NUANS Name Reservation Report is the official, government-approved document required for incorporation and certain registrations. It reserves your chosen name for 90 days and must be purchased separately.
How accurate is the Free NUANS Preliminary Search?
Our Free NUANS Preliminary Search is highly accurate for business name availability.
While only an official NUANS Name Reservation Report can confirm availability, we guarantee our Free NUANS Preliminary Search results. If our search indicates your name is available and the government does not approve it after you purchase a NUANS Report or registration through us, we’ll issue a full refund.
Will running a free search reserve my business name?
No. The free search does not reserve your name. Only an official NUANS Name Reservation Report reserves your proposed business name for 90 days.
How do I know if my business name is available?
Use our Free NUANS Preliminary Search to check for availability instantly.
Do I need a NUANS Report if I’m registering a Sole Proprietorship?
No. Sole proprietorships do not require a NUANS Report.
However, a preliminary search is still helpful to make sure the name isn’t already in use.
Can I run multiple free searches?
Yes, run as many as you like.
This is ideal if you’re still deciding between a few name ideas.
What should I do if my name appears to be taken?
Try variations or alternatives and run another free search.
If you’re unsure, our team can help assess your options or recommend changes that increase the likelihood of approval.
How do I buy an official NUANS Name Reservation Report after the free search?
After reviewing your results, you can order the official NUANS Report directly from Opstart.
The report is delivered within 15 minutes and can be used to complete your incorporation.
