    EntityFlo?

    The real difference

    Four competitors. One clear answer.

    Diligent is a GRC suite with entity management bolted on. Athennian is a comprehensive entity platform built in Canada. BGL CAS 360 automates ASIC forms for accountants. Consultants charge by the hour. Each does some things well — but none were built around the governance challenges specific to Australian corporate groups: trust structures, ASIC DSP integration, deterministic compliance scoring, and the automation needs of 50-plus entity portfolios.

    EntityFlo was. That is reflected in the verified feature matrix above and in every section below.

    01

    Deterministic compliance scoring, not checklists or AI estimates

    Every entity scored against fixed jurisdictional rules continuously. Not a manual checklist, not an AI confidence interval. A score you can act on and audit — across your entire group, in real time.

    02

    Native ASIC DSP lodgement — no portal re-entry

    Direct filing via the ASIC API. Diligent and Athennian have no ASIC integration at all. BGL does ASIC forms but without the compliance engine around them.

    03

    Discretionary trust look-through for UBO

    Australian trust structures are modelled correctly — UBO identified through the trust, not stopped at the trustee. No other platform in this comparison supports this natively.

    04

    Auto-staged resolutions from compliance gaps

    When the engine detects a gap, it stages the resolution before you ask. Competitors flag issues at best — none auto-generate the fix.

    05

    Flat-fee pricing — no per-entity cost model

    One subscription covers your entire group. Adding a new SPV doesn't change your invoice. Diligent and Athennian charge per-entity or per-user at enterprise scale.

    EntityFlo vs. Diligent
    We are a purpose-built Governance Engine.

    Diligent is a US-based platform built for board portals and GRC first. Entity management was added later, and their automation focuses on surfacing insights from existing data — not enforcing compliance rules. They offer org charts, compliance deadline tracking, and search across entity records. But there's no native ASIC integration, no Australian trust modelling, and setup requires enterprise onboarding. EntityFlo is Australian-first — with deterministic compliance scoring, auto-staged resolutions, and native ASIC DSP filing from day one.

    EntityFlo vs. Athennian
    We are an Australian Compliance Engine.

    Athennian is a well-featured Canadian platform offering entity records, cap tables, structure charts, document management with e-signatures, and automated data entry. It serves corporate groups, PE funds, and real estate portfolios globally. However, it was never built for the Australian market — no ASIC DSP integration, no native discretionary trust modelling, no deterministic compliance scoring, and no auto-staged resolutions. EntityFlo fills the gap for Australian legal and finance teams who need compliance automation, not just data centralisation.

    EntityFlo vs. BGL CAS 360
    We automate the entire governance lifecycle.

    CAS 360 is the go-to for Australian accountants filing ASIC forms — and it does that well with direct ASIC DSP integration. But it stops at the form. No multi-level ownership charts with UBO look-through, no deterministic compliance scoring across a portfolio, no resolution generation, no governance lifecycle automation. It was designed for accountants preparing annual reviews, not for CLOs, CFOs and Company Secretaries managing complex entity structures end-to-end.

    EntityFlo vs. NowInfinity
    We are a governance engine for corporate groups.

    NowInfinity is an Australian platform built for accounting practices — trust deed generation, ASIC lodgements, SMSF compliance, and practice-wide client management. It's excellent for accountants managing hundreds of single-entity clients. But for in-house teams managing complex multi-entity corporate groups, it lacks compliance scoring, governance workflows, UBO look-through, e-signatures, and the structural depth needed to manage portfolios of 20, 50, or 100+ entities end-to-end.

    EntityFlo vs. Consultants & Spreadsheets
    We do it in seconds.

    EntityFlo becomes your single source of truth — accurate, auditable, and always current. A deterministic compliance engine works across multiple jurisdictions, applying the right rules to the right entities automatically, surfacing and resolving issues before they become penalties. Ironclad governance that works for your team, not against them — no matter how complex your structure or how many borders it crosses.
