How the Two Models Compare
Both bring skilled global talent to your finance work. The real question is whether you are buying a managed service or hiring a person for your team.
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 Managed Outsourcing Model (QX Global)
QX Global provides finance-and-accounting outsourcing (FAO) through managed delivery teams, with much of its business serving accounting firms and larger enterprises. QX recruits and manages the staff, sets the delivery structure, and runs the engagement on its side. You get scalable capacity and process rigor, but the people work within QX's managed model on a defined scope, and the day-to-day relationship runs through the provider rather than sitting inside your team.
Why Choose MAVI vs. QX Global
A Dedicated Hire, Not a Managed Team
QX delivers your work through a firm-managed team on a defined scope. MAVI gives you one specific accountant who works only inside your business. They log into your systems, join your meetings, and report to you. When you need the person doing the work, you message them directly instead of routing through a delivery manager.
Built for Your Finance Team
QX's model is weighted toward accounting firms and larger enterprise back offices. MAVI is built for the growth-stage company running its own finance function, from Series A to PE-backed mid-market. The roles, vetting, and onboarding assume you are the business, hiring for your own team.
US-Caliber Talent at Global Cost
MAVI's network includes accountants with Big 4 backgrounds and real 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 exact skills your books need, not a standardized managed-service scope.
Placement in as Fast as 5 Days
Standing up a managed FAO engagement means scoping, transition, and onboarding run by the provider. 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.
Ownership That Improves Your Books
A managed team executes within its agreed scope. A dedicated MAVI accountant, embedded in your team, notices what needs fixing and fixes it: the late reconciliation, the manual step, the report that could be cleaner. That initiative is hard to get when the work is bounded by a provider's service definition.
MAVI vs. QX Global: Side-by-Side
"MAVI has been a game-changer for us. We onboarded a part-time Senior Accountant and a Staff Accountant, handling everything from our month-end close activities to AP function to international payroll, with expertise in QBO. I’ve been very happy with them - I’m even looking to increase their hours and responsibilities soon. They’ve made it so easy to scale our accounting"
Fast-Growing Companies are Choosing MAVI over QX Global
Startups
For scaling companies that want an in-house accounting function without US full-time salaries, and would rather own a hire than buy a managed service. A dedicated MAVI accountant gives you control and integration a firm-run FAO team cannot.
Mid-Market Companies
For PE-backed and growth-stage teams raising the bar on reporting and close speed. A dedicated MAVI accountant who learns your business and stays put builds the consistency a managed, scope-bound team struggles to match.
Fractional CFO Firms
For fractional CFO practices that want senior talent they select and control per client. Rather than plug clients into a provider's managed delivery, you give each one a dedicated accountant integrated into their systems.
