Would you know if I already started a project on my personal account can I still move it to a new LLC account?

Also, assume I already have an LLC then how do I indicate this account is an LLC? Can you sign up as an organization on Firebase?

You sell it to an LLC and draft a bill of sale/invoice.

I’d only feel comfortable with a new account at Firebase explicitly in the LLC’s name, and keep my personal name/identity far away from it.

It’s not hard to get an EIN (a few clicks online and free), open a bank account (my credit union turns this around in a day or two), fund it, use debit card as billing method.

I’m not positive… I would imagine you’d need to transfer ownership. Like if I have an iOS app under my personal dev account then start an LLC and someone sues me for whatever reason, I think it would be hard to argue the LLC actually owns the app, but IANAL. You can generally sign up for most of these services as a team or business but I’m not familiar with firebase. It being Google though I’d assume they support business accounts

A pain point will be you’ll need to wait for your new LLC to get a DUNS number + apply for an Apple developer account. (Whilst you’re at it, set up Apple Business Manager too.) Realistically you will want a domain for that LLC that has email, so set that up too.
