ALL-IN-ONE PRACTICE MANAGEMENT
What Canopy Replaces
The tools, logins, and workarounds you won't need anymore.
What Changes When You Switch To Canopy
Ask any firm that's made the move, and you'll hear the same three things.
Sleeker, Faster, Better Tools
No more waiting on five logins to catch up with each other. One connected system, one platform.
Easier, Simpler Client Relationships
One place for clients to reach you, with every interaction logged, so nothing gets lost and nothing starts from scratch.
Security, Support, Scalability for Your Firm
Client data in one protected system, one team to call, and a platform that grows with your firm, no extra software required.
Everything Your Firm Needs
You used to need a dozen tools. Now there’s Canopy.
Document Management Tools
No more hunting through shared drives and email attachments. Every file lives in one place, findable in seconds. Nothing gets lost, and no one’s waiting on you to dig up a file.
- Replaces: SmartVault, FileCabinet CS, ShareFile, Dropbox, Google Drive, Microsoft 365
Client Communication Tools
Email, phone, and text scatter every client conversation. Bring it all into one thread, attached to the client record. Every conversation stays with the client, so nothing falls through the cracks.
- Replaces: Liscio, Twilio, Textbetter, WhatsApp, Multiple Email Aliases
Engagement & Proposal Tools
Scoping a new engagement usually means a separate letter tool, a manual approval chase, and hoping the client actually signs. Set the scope, send it, and get it signed, all from one place. Work starts faster, and there’s no gap between “client agreed” and “client signed.”
- Replaces: Ignition, Anchor, DocuSign, Microsoft Word, Adobe PDF
CRM
Spreadsheets and sticky notes only get you so far. Manage every relationship from one dashboard instead. You always know where every client stands, without piecing it together from memory.
- Replaces: Hubspot, Excel, Google Sheets, Notion tables, and Monday.com
Payments Tools
Checks and third-party processors slow everything down. Get paid straight from Canopy. Faster payments, fewer awkward follow-ups.
- Replaces: Stripe, QBO or Xero invoicing, CPACharge
Close Automation Tools
Automate recurring tasks, client reminder triggers, and workflow handoffs automatically as work progresses. Projects move forward without constant manager oversight, shortening close cycles.
- Replaces: Double (fka Keeper), Aider, BlackLine, FloQast, Excel
Time & Billing Tools
Capture every billable minute, create bulk or group invoices, and track work-in-progress (WIP) in real time. You get paid faster, capture missed time, and eliminate the monthly invoicing headache.
- Replaces: QuickBooks Time (formerly TSheets), BigTime, Harvest, Bill4Time
Coworker & AI Tools
Searching across client files, past emails, and practice management tools for answers slows down your entire team. Canopy’s embedded AI assistant instantly retrieves firm knowledge, drafts client responses, summarizes client histories and more.
- Replaces: Claude Cowork, ChatGPT, CoPilot, Gemini
Reporting Tools
Rebuilding reports by hand every month eats a day you don’t have. See firm performance in real time instead. You catch problems — and opportunities — before they become a bigger deal.
- Replaces: Looker, Tableau, PowerBI
Notetaker Tools
Canopy’s AI Notetaker automatically transcribes meetings, summarizes key points, and drafts follow-up tasks linked directly to the client record. No details slip through the cracks, and your team spends zero time writing post-meeting recaps.
- Replaces: Vinyl, Ping, FireFlies, Granola, Fathom, Gong, Otter
Tax Workflow
Smart Intake, Smart Prep, and Smart Delivery work as one continuous engine — auto-populating client documents, killing manual PDF re-entry, and closing out with fast, integrated billing
- Replaces: Standford Tax. Truss, SafeSend, SurePrep
Task and Project Management
Task lists and disconnected apps aren’t a system. Give every project one home instead. You always know what’s next, without hunting for it across five tools.
- Replaces: Clickup, Asana, Trello, Monday.com
Client management, workflow, document management, time tracking, billing, and a secure client portal all live in one platform, so your team stops logging into a different tool for every task
When your tools don’t talk to each other, your team pays for it in billable hours. Canopy is one system, so nothing falls out of sync and nothing needs to be reconciled by hand.
A single, secure place for clients to send documents, sign, message, and pay drives higher adoption than a fragmented stack ever gets, and it closes the security gaps that come when data is scattered across different tools
