GoCanopy, a Paris-based AI platform for institutional real estate investors, has raised €2.1 million in seed funding, ending its bootstrapping phase as it looks to scale its AI-driven operating system and expand internationally.
The round was led by ISAI and included participation from BNP Paribas Développement, Yellow, and several angel investors such as Andrew Baum, emeritus professor of real estate investment at the University of Oxford, and Ludovic Jacquot, CEO of Batipart Europe. This is the company’s first external investment and marks a shift toward venture-backed growth.
GoCanopy’s platform is designed to address a persistent challenge in institutional real estate: data fragmentation. Investment and asset-management teams typically store key information, including deal memos, rent rolls, financial statements, and lease documents, across emails, PDFs, spreadsheets, and siloed systems. The lack of a unified data layer makes it difficult to compare deals, benchmark performance, track leases, and generate timely reports.
To solve this, GoCanopy uses AI to ingest and structure unstructured documents, turning them into a shared “institutional memory” that teams can search, analyze, and use to support investment decisions. The platform aims to improve underwriting efficiency, enable faster deal screening, and help asset managers identify lease expirations, rent review opportunities, and operational risks more proactively.
GoCanopy said it has already secured contracts with major institutional clients, including Brookfield and Apollo-managed funds, indicating demand for an AI-native solution that reduces manual data work and supports more data-driven decision-making.
The funding will support product development, expansion of GoCanopy’s enterprise-grade platform, and international growth, including plans to open a London office while maintaining its Paris base. The company also intends to expand its engineering and commercial teams to accelerate go-to-market efforts.
As AI tools increasingly enter real estate investing workflows, GoCanopy positions itself as a foundational operating system for investment and asset management teams that need a centralized, searchable intelligence layer to navigate large portfolios and complex deal pipelines.
