About Canopy

Canopy is a practice management platform built specifically for tax and accounting firms, combining client management, workflow automation, document storage, and a client portal into a single system. Starting at $66 per month, Canopy addresses the operational complexity that firms face when juggling multiple clients across tax seasons, audits, and advisory engagements. The platform's workflow engine automates task assignment, deadline tracking, and status updates, reducing the administrative overhead that eats into billable hours. Canopy's client portal provides a branded interface where clients can upload documents, sign engagement letters, and communicate with their accounting team — eliminating the email chaos that plagues most firms. The QuickBooks and Xero integrations connect practice management to the accounting data, enabling a more unified view of each client relationship. For tax-focused firms, Canopy includes IRS transcript retrieval and tax resolution workflow tools that specialized competitors don't offer. The platform is well-suited to firms with 5 to 50 staff members who need structure without enterprise complexity. Larger firms may find the reporting and customization options limiting.
