Archway Platform vs Canopy

Archway Platform is paid web software that combines investment aggregation, accounting, and reporting on one general ledger. The same ledger serves as both investment and accounting books of record. It aggregates public and private markets, liquid and illiquid assets, and held-away and managed positions, with performance, investor, and multi-currency reporting. Accounting workflows include invoice intake, approval routing, vendor verification, fraud controls, payments, and reconciliation. Fund administration records agreement-based waterfall calculations as journal entries and provides capital accounts and K-1 summaries. Carried-interest tools cover grants, vesting, forfeitures, scenario modeling, and distributions with traceable allocations. A branded client portal uses the same ledger and includes approvals. Supported structures include trusts, LLCs, partnerships, foundations, private funds, fund of funds, mutual funds, pooled cash vehicles, omnibuses, and individuals. Pricing is on request under fixed annual pricing based on entities, services, and users.

Canopy brings wealth records from multiple custodians into a consolidated, reconciled portfolio view for family offices, external asset managers, and private banks. It connects to more than 250 custodians through direct feeds, real-time SWIFT, and statement parsing, and covers assets from equities and cash to private markets and real estate across multiple entities. Portfolio accounting includes daily revaluation, cost basis, profit and loss, FX attribution, accruals, corporate actions, and double-entry bookkeeping. Analytics cover returns, risk, exposure, scenario modeling, benchmarking, allocation, mandate monitoring, and cash flow forecasting. Teams can create custom or white-label reports and schedule delivery. The client portal offers iOS and Android apps, role-based access, and AI chat. Optional AI tools include portfolio questions with cited answers, PDF analysis, and transaction classification; Canopy says client data is not used to train shared AI models. Pricing depends on scope and is available on request. Listed annual plans start at $15,000 a year for a Single Family Office, with a one-year commitment.
