    The Australian Alternative
    to Athennian.

    Athennian is a strong platform for North American law firms. But if you're managing entities in Australia, you need something purpose-built for ASIC — not retrofitted from Canada.

    Why Australian teams choose EntityFlo over Athennian

    01

    ASIC-native vs ASIC-foreign

    EntityFlo was built from the ground up for the Australian regulatory environment. That means native ASIC registry sync, direct lodgement as a registered ASIC DSP, and a compliance calendar mapped to Australian statutory deadlines — annual reviews, director changes, registered office updates, and more. Athennian has no ASIC integration. It was designed for Canadian and US corporate registries. If you're operating under Australian corporate law, you're working around the platform, not with it.

    02

    Pricing built for Australian mid-market — not North American enterprise

    Athennian's pricing starts at approximately CAD $25,000 per year and scales from there. That's a significant commitment before you've seen a single return — and it requires engaging a sales team before you can even trial the product. EntityFlo starts at AUD $199/month — no sales call, no negotiation, no lock-in. You can be managing your entities within minutes of signing up.

    03

    Self-serve vs sales-heavy buying process

    With Athennian, you can't start without talking to their sales team. That's fine if you're a large law firm with an IT procurement process — but for a CFO who needs to get governance under control this quarter, it's a blocker. EntityFlo is fully self-serve. Sign up, import your entities, connect to ASIC, and start managing compliance on day one.

    Built for Australia — feature by feature

    ASIC DSP Direct Lodgement

    EntityFlo is a registered ASIC Document Service Provider (DSP) — meaning you can file directly with ASIC from inside the platform. No third-party agent required. No manual form-filling. Director changes, registered office updates, annual reviews — lodged in seconds, with a full audit trail.

    Rebecca AI — Your Compliance Co-Pilot

    Rebecca is EntityFlo's built-in AI compliance engine. She monitors your entity portfolio continuously, identifies compliance gaps before they become breaches, surfaces upcoming ASIC deadlines, and drafts board resolutions and governance documents on demand. It's like having a Company Secretary on call 24/7 — for a fraction of the cost.

    Entity 360 — One Dashboard, Every Entity

    The Entity 360 dashboard gives you a single source of truth across your entire corporate structure. Directors, shareholders, registered offices, share capital, UBO calculations, document history — all in one place, always current. No more spreadsheets. No more chasing subsidiaries for data.

    Compliance Health Scoring

    EntityFlo scores every entity in your portfolio against its Australian regulatory obligations — annual reviews, officer details, registered addresses, and more. You get a real-time health score across your portfolio, so you know exactly where the risk is before ASIC does.
