GoCanopy Raises €2.1m Seed Funding to Build the AI Operating System for Institutional Real Estate Investors

GoCanopy, the AI-powered operating system for institutional real estate investors, has raised €2.1m in seed funding. The round was led by ISAI, with participation from BNP Paribas Développement, Yellow and angel investors, including Andrew Baum, University of Oxford Emeritus Professor in Real Estate Investment, and Ludovic Jacquot, CEO of Batipart Europe and ex-Chairman of EMEA Real Estate Investment Banking at Morgan Stanley.

GoCanopy will use new funding to accelerate the development of its enterprise-grade platform capabilities and support its international expansion, including opening an office in London alongside Paris and expanding its commercial and engineering teams as it scales go-to-market efforts globally.

William He, Co-founder and CEO of GoCanopy, said, “Over years spent as a real estate investor at Morgan Stanley and Davidson Kempner, I saw firsthand how data fragmentation blocks revenue. When intelligence is captured and made available across both investment and asset management, it compounds. It can be harnessed to uncover millions in potential revenue opportunities that spreadsheets simply can’t reveal.”

François Collet, Partner at ISAI, said, “At ISAI, we believe the strongest vertical AI companies are built by founders who deeply understand the real operational pain points of their market. GoCanopy is a strong example of this: a team with deep institutional real estate expertise, a product already validated by leading players in the sector, and an AI approach closely aligned with real-world investment and asset management workflows. This positioning enables rapid integration and supports a highly effective land-and-expand growth strategy.”

Andrew Baum, University of Oxford Emeritus Professor in Real Estate Investment, said, “Over my career, there have been a very small (3 or 4) number of points in time at which we knew that innovative technology would change the way we worked. The recent breakthrough in AI/LLM is the latest. The real estate industry needs guidance and applied tools or agents that will harness the power of this technology. The combination of domain expertise and engineering in the founding team made it easy for me to want to support GoCanopy.”
