Disclosure: Abivo is our product and is not affiliated with Upflow or Gaviti. Facts about both tools come from their own websites as of October 2026. Check each vendor's site for the latest.

The short answer: Upflow is a B2B AR platform focused on the US mid-market, with collections agents and multi-channel outreach including calls. Gaviti is an invoice-to-cash platform for medium to large enterprises and shared service centers that works on top of any ERP. Pick Upflow for B2B finance teams with several collectors who want AI agents inside a shared AR workspace; pick Gaviti for mid-market and enterprise teams that want to keep their ERP as is and add an AR layer on top. If what your team actually needs is someone to follow up on every past due invoice by phone, text and email, an AI collections agent such as Abivo can work alongside either one, or on its own with your accounting system.

Where Abivo fits

Upflow and Gaviti are platforms your AR team works inside. Abivo is different: its AI agent, Kate, does the follow-up itself. Kate calls, texts and emails your customers about past due invoices, names the invoice details your customer needs (job, site, PO or billing period), covers every open invoice on an account in one message, records promises to pay and disputes, and hands disputes and sensitive replies to the person you name. It follows up with customers in over 50 countries and in French where customers prefer it.

Teams usually look at Abivo when they have three or more people chasing invoices and still cannot reach every account each week. Abivo works with QuickBooks and Xero, and with Chargebee after card retries, so it can run on its own or next to an AR platform you already use.
