What Sleek does

Sleek (legal entity Sleek Tech Pte Ltd) is a Singapore-headquartered fintech founded in 2017 that operates a multi-jurisdictional digital platform combining company incorporation, accounting, corporate secretarial, payroll, and adjacent financial services for small and medium-sized enterprises and foreign entrepreneurs. The company serves customers across four regulated markets — Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, and the United Kingdom — through locally incorporated entities (Sleek Hong Kong Limited, Sleek Australia Pty Ltd, Sleek Accounting Limited and Sleek Technology Limited in the UK) and holds a dense stack of regulatory licences including ACRA Filing Agent, MAS Major Payment Institution (PS20200521), MOM Employment Agency (17S8937), Hong Kong TCSP (TC006483), ASIC Reg Agent (47659), TPB Tax Agent (26131380), and operates as an agent of Plaid Financial Ltd.

The platform is a cloud-based SaaS dashboard with digital KYC onboarding, electronic signature (SleekSign), a multi-currency Sleek Business Account integrated with Airwallex and DBS, a digital mailroom, and a suite of free business tools (invoice generator, tax calculators, filing-deadline tracker). Core offerings are bundled as subscription tiers — incorporation packages from S$600 to S$4,000, corporate secretarial tiers from S$350 to S$1,550 per year, plus add-on modules for nominee director (S$2,000/year), registered office address, payroll, GST/VAT filing, CFO services, and market-specific products such as SEIS/EIS advance assurance and R&D tax credits (UK), ASIC agent services and discretionary trust setup (Australia), and audit services (Hong Kong). The company sells through a hybrid model combining 100% digital self-serve onboarding with a sales advisor team reachable via phone, email, and WhatsApp.

Expansion highlights6 records

Direct peers

• Osome: Singapore-headquartered digital corporate services and accounting platform for SMEs and foreign founders — the most direct competitor to Sleek in its home market, with overlapping incorporation, accounting and corporate secretary offerings.
• Doola: US-focused all-in-one incorporation, accounting and tax platform for non-US founders and international founders, mirroring Sleek's full-stack foreign-founder playbook but anchored in US company formation.
• Stripe Atlas: Stripe's global company-formation service for online businesses (Delaware C-Corp), providing incorporation, banking and tax-ID onboarding — directly comparable on cross-border founder onboarding.
• Firstbase: US incorporation, EIN, registered agent, banking and bookkeeping platform for founders outside the US — closest comp to Sleek's foreign-founder incorporation and compliance packages.
• Pilot: US bookkeeping, tax and CFO services for startups and SMBs — comparable to Sleek's accounting, tax filing and CFO service lines, with similar productized subscription packages.

Broad incumbents

• TMF Group: Large global provider of corporate secretarial, accounting, tax and HR services across 80+ jurisdictions — overlaps with Sleek's full-service compliance offerings but delivers primarily through traditional rather than native-digital channels.
• Hawksford: Global corporate services firm offering company formation, secretarial, accounting and tax services across EMEA and APAC, including Singapore and Hong Kong where Sleek competes.

Emerging players

• Deel (formerly Multiplier): Global employment, payroll and contractor-management platform — adjacent to Sleek's payroll and Employer-of-Record-adjacent services, increasingly competing for the same SME founder wallet.

Others

• Xero: Cloud accounting platform and Sleek's Platinum Partner — both an enabler (via integration) and a potential disintermediation risk if Xero deepens vertical services for SMBs.
