I’ve had only positive experiences with the HeySara team, and recently I even had the pleasure of meeting them in person.
Their support for anyone looking to establish a professional life in this amazing city is tireless, thoughtful, and genuinely welcoming. The entire incorporation and secretarial process was handled smoothly from start to finish.
A special thank you to Jie Han and Joycelyn for standing by my side throughout the process and making everything so clear and stress-free. I couldn’t have asked for better support. Highly recommended!

Very similar experience to Kanchaya, apptrailers, deeDee and everyone else. If you're reading this RUN FAR FAR AWAY FROM HEYSARA!!!!

Extremely disappointing experience with HeySara, especially after becoming a paying customer.

I signed up with HeySara basic plan $199 because of their strong Google reviews and the impression that they would provide reliable, transparent company secretarial support. Unfortunately, my experience has been the complete opposite.

From the very first interaction, there has nothing but claims of mandatory processes which they later corrected when I asked for ACRA evidence to show prood of compliance, constant upselling and additional charges for even the most basic tasks — tasks that I later discovered I could have done myself directly in BizFile with Singpass.

The only reason I engaged HeySara was because I needed assistance appointing a company secretary after incorporation. However, once I converted to a paid customer, I found myself being quoted extra fees repeatedly for:

- The simplest procedural updates

- Basic changes in BizFile

- “Mandatory” documents that were never mentioned during sign-up

- Additional one-time charges that kept appearing along the way

What made the experience worse was that every request seemed to trigger yet another hidden cost, even when I was fully capable of completing the process myself if they had provided clear guidance upfront.

When I finally requested something extremely simple — help appointing a new secretary so I could take over the filings myself — I was told they could not assist due to “compliance requirements,” despite this being the entire reason I engaged them in the first place.

HeySara prioritizes upselling over actually getting anything done, the biggest myth is their 4.8 stars probably all reviews that were bought/bot generated.

Definitely won't reccomend HeySara to anybody unless I have a grudge with them
