For my company in Australia, I'm thinking of making a US subsidiary because it's the easiest way to get a US bank account, so I don't have to pay fees from Stripe for currency conversion to accept US dollars. Also, it would let me accept ACH payments from US customers which is nice.
Next, as I'm doing some hardware stuff and buy parts from distributors in the US, it could save more in currency conversion rates there as well. Just need to talk to someone about how to do that legally (transfer pricing).
If I use Atlas, I'll probably wait for them to support LLCs because I think that would be a lot better for my uses.
Finally, incorporating the business in the US would good for founders wanting to take funds from US investors (but my startup is bootstrapped so I'm not really interested in that).
