MAVI vs. Entigrity
Trusted by Top US Companies
How the Two Models Compare
Both connect you with global accounting talent. The difference is who the model is designed for, and who employs the person.
The Dedicated Global Talent Model (MAVI)
MAVI works the other way around. Instead of routing your books through an external team, you get one dedicated global accountant, selected for your business, who works inside your company like any other hire. They use your tools, run your close, and report to you. MAVI still handles the operational weight in the background, including contracts, compliance, and payments, so the hire stays easy to run. The result is the support structure of a managed service with the ownership and continuity of an in-house team member. You manage a hire, not a vendor.
The CPA-Firm Staffing Model (Entigrity)
Entigrity specializes in placing offshore accounting staff with CPA and accounting firms, largely from India, under a model where Entigrity employs and houses the talent in its own offices. The pitch is "your staff, our office": the firm directs the work, Entigrity handles employment, facilities, and HR. It is designed around the needs of accounting practices scaling delivery, not around a company building its own internal finance function.
Why Choose MAVI vs. Entigrity
Built for Your Company, Not Just Firms
Entigrity's model centers on CPA and accounting firms adding offshore capacity. MAVI is built for the company hiring for its own finance team, from Series A startups to PE-backed mid-market. The roles, vetting, and onboarding assume you are the end business, hiring an accountant for your own books.
A Dedicated Hire Who Reports to You
With Entigrity, the talent is employed and housed in the provider's offices under its HR and facilities. MAVI's accountant works inside your team and reports to you. They join your Slack, log into your systems, and operate as part of your company, not from a provider's back office.
US-Caliber Talent at Global Cost
MAVI's network includes accountants with Big 4 backgrounds and depth in US GAAP, modern ERPs, and month-end close, at 50 to 70 percent less than a US-based equivalent. You hire for the specific skills your finance function needs, matched to your business rather than a firm-delivery template.
Placement in as Fast as 5 Days
MAVI places pre-vetted talent in as fast as five days. A short discovery call, a candidate review, your pick, and they start integrating that week, with no firm-oriented staffing cycle to work through first.
Ownership That Improves Your Books
A MAVI accountant embedded in your team takes initiative on what needs fixing: the reconciliation that runs late, the manual step nobody automated, the cleaner report. That ownership comes from being part of your company, not staffed from a provider's office to execute a firm's defined tasks.
MAVI vs. Entigrity: Side-by-Side
"We have been impressed by the quality of talent on MAVI's platform. They've been quick to provide excellent candidates with staying power, which has allowed our team to successfully scale up our department. We're very happy with the AP Specialist we hired through them."
Fast-Growing Companies are Choosing MAVI over Entigrity
Startups
For scaling companies that want an in-house accounting function without US full-time salaries. Rather than a model built for CPA firms, a dedicated MAVI accountant reports to you and works inside your team from day one.
Mid-Market Companies
For PE-backed and growth-stage teams professionalizing reporting. A dedicated MAVI accountant who learns your business and reports directly to you builds more consistency than staff employed and housed by an external provider.
Fractional CFO Firms
For fractional CFO practices that want senior, dedicated talent they choose and control per client, integrated into that client's systems rather than working from a provider's office under the provider's employment.
