Canopy Practice Management Product Description

Canopy Practice Management is an all-in-one accounting practice management platform that helps tax, accounting, bookkeeping, and advisory firms coordinate client work, automate administrative processes, and manage firm operations from a shared system of record. It connects CRM, client and contact records, workflow, documents, communications, engagements, time, billing, payments, reporting, and embedded AI so teams can reduce app switching and maintain context across the full client lifecycle.

Key capabilities include:
— Client and firm management: Centralized client records, customizable fields and permissions, connected email and calendars, firm messaging, role-based access, mobile apps, and dashboards that provide visibility into work, capacity, utilization, realization, profitability, and revenue.
— Workflow automation: Tasks and subtasks, recurring work, automated dates and notifications, role-based assignments, checklists, Kanban views, bulk assignments, time and dollar budgets, workload planning, and approval processes.
— Engagement management: Tools for building proposals and engagement letters, collecting eSignatures and payment methods, standardizing service packages, and automatically creating related tasks and invoices when work is accepted.
— Document management and eSignatures: Secure document storage and sharing, client requests, folder-level permissions, retention rules, reusable eSignature templates, AI-assisted document naming and signature-field placement, and desktop access through Canopy Virtual Drive.
— Client collaboration: A branded client portal where clients can upload files, respond to requests, sign documents, review invoices, make payments, and communicate securely through web or mobile.
— Time, billing, and payments: Connected time entries, expenses, work in progress, retainers, recurring invoices, group billing, payment collection, automated reminders, and firm reporting that help move completed work into revenue without rekeying information.
— Tax workflow support: Intake, document requests, tax-workflow coordination, client communication, IRS transcripts, notices, form automation, and return delivery, while allowing firms to continue using their existing tax preparation software.
— Embedded AI: AI-assisted questionnaires, meeting notes, document organization, intake workflows, eSignature preparation, and the Canopy Coworker execution layer, with permissions and governance designed for sensitive accounting data.

Canopy is best suited to firms seeking to consolidate multiple point solutions, standardize repeatable work, improve client responsiveness, and scale operational control without rebuilding their technology stack as they grow.
