I just have a hard time seeing how "going international" is going to be easier. Suddenly you have to deal with a completely foreign tax system and people who are well versed in international tax laws in your own jurisdiction. A lot of people can't start companies abroad without considering controlled foreign company rules, double taxation agreements, permanent establishment etc.

It's not necessarily going to be easier, but if your business plans to sell primarily to the US market and wants to accept credit card payments then incorporating in the US with a US bank account may be easier than trying to do so from many other countries. If on the other hand you are mostly planning on addressing your local market then a US based entity may make things more complicated for no reason. I think Atlas is targeted at the former.
