Shopventory renamed to Thrive Inventory. It reads vendor invoices now, but it charges $59 a month extra to do it, plus $2 every time, and not at all on its entry plan. Fireworks is $79 a month, unlimited, and Square stays your system of record.

If you are searching for Shopventory, you are searching for Thrive Inventory. Same company, same product, new name. It is a good product and it does far more than Fireworks does. Reporting, stock forecasting, min and max levels, bundles and recipes, multi-channel sync across Shopify and Clover and BigCommerce. If you need a back office, Thrive is a real back office and this page is not going to tell you otherwise.
This page is for the merchant who went looking for one thing. She got a vendor invoice as a PDF or a photo, Square would not take it, and she wanted software to read it so she did not have to type it out. If that is the whole job, you are about to buy a platform to get a feature.
Invoice reading lives inside Thrive's AI Assist. Here is where AI Assist sits on their published price list.
| Thrive plan | Per month, billed annually | Can it read your invoice? |
|---|---|---|
| Starter | $55 | No. AI Assist is not available on this plan. |
| Standard | $119 | Only with the $59/mo AI Assist add-on, then $2 per purchase order. |
| Professional | $249 | Only with the $59/mo AI Assist add-on, then $2 per purchase order. |
| Elite | $519 | Included, then $2 per purchase order. |
| Fireworks for Square | $79 | Yes. That is the product. No per-invoice charge, no line caps. |
The cheapest Thrive plan that can read a vendor invoice is Standard at $119 plus the $59 add-on. That is $178 a month before you upload anything, and $2 every time you do past your included drafts.
Fireworks is one price. No card to start. $10/month for your first 3 months from signup, then $79/month.
Thrive prices above are their published annual rates as of August 2026. Billed monthly they are $59, $129, $279 and $559. Check their pricing page before you decide, not ours.
$2 a purchase order does not sound like much. It is not really about the money. It is that every upload now has a price on it, and you start doing arithmetic before you use your own software.
Is this invoice worth two dollars. Should I just type this small one in. Do I re-run the import I got wrong. Should I put through the three little ones that came in this week.
Fireworks has no per-invoice fee, no per-document fee and no line caps, so the answer is always yes, put it through. Every invoice, every time, is the point. That is also how it gets better at your catalog, and it cannot get better at a catalog it is never shown.
This is the difference that outlasts any price. Thrive documents it plainly on their own Square page:
"All inventory, catalog, and stock levels edits should be made in Thrive Inventory."
Thrive Inventory, thrivemetrics.com/square, under "Is the integration between Thrive Inventory and Square two-way?"
"Any changes made directly in Square will not be reflected in Thrive Inventory."
That is a real decision, not a gotcha. Thrive becomes the place you work, and Square becomes a screen it pushes to. If you want a back office that owns your catalog, that is the correct design and it is what you are buying.
Fireworks is the other arrangement. Square stays your system of record. Items, costs and received stock are written into your Square catalog. You keep working in Square, your staff keep working in Square, and nothing you do in Square breaks anything. There is no second system to learn and no habit to unlearn.
No multi-channel sync. Fireworks is for Square. If you sell on Shopify and Clover too and you need one catalog across all of them, buy Thrive.
No reporting suite, no demand forecasting, no bundles or recipes or bills of materials.
What Fireworks does is take the invoice your vendor sent, in whatever form it arrived, and turn it into items in your Square catalog and stock on your shelf, with the cost you actually paid attached. Nothing reaches Square until you approve it.
Only if reading vendor invoices is what you needed. Thrive is a full back office: reporting, forecasting, bundles and recipes, multi-channel sync across Shopify and Clover and BigCommerce. Fireworks does one job. It reads your vendor invoice and puts the lines into your Square catalog and inventory. If you need the reporting suite, buy Thrive. If you are paying for a platform to get the invoice read, that is what Fireworks is.
Invoice reading is part of Thrive's AI Assist. It is not available on the Starter plan at all. On Standard and Professional it is a $59 per month add-on, plus $2 for every purchase order created. It is included on Elite, which is $519 per month billed annually or $559 billed monthly. The cheapest Thrive plan that can read an invoice is Standard at $119 plus the $59 add-on, so $178 per month. Fireworks is $79 per month with no per-invoice charge.
No. Square stays your system of record. Fireworks writes items, costs and received stock into your Square catalog, and you keep working in Square exactly as you do now. Thrive documents the opposite arrangement: it states that all inventory, catalog and stock level edits should be made in Thrive Inventory, and that changes made directly in Square will not be reflected in Thrive.
No. Fireworks works with any Square plan, including the free one.
Take the last invoice a vendor sent you, the awkward one, and upload it. Fourteen days free, no card, and you will know inside ten minutes whether this is the thing you were looking for.
