The story

Canopy is a Utah-based vertical SaaS for accounting/tax/bookkeeping firms — CRM, document management, workflow, time & billing, and client portal in one platform. The embedded finance angle is Canopy Payments (ACH and card acceptance for CPA firms billing clients), launched on Adyen. In 2025 the company reoriented around AI (Canopy Coworker, Notetaker, Tax Workflow Automation) built on OpenAI and Anthropic, positioning itself as an 'autonomous firm' platform rather than a point tool.
