Canoe Expands its Canoe Pro Offering with Four New Pro Partners

Fintech takes the next step in broadening full-service solutions available to alternative investors

NEW YORK, October 22, 2024Canoe Intelligence (“Canoe”), the financial technology company powering smarter alts management, today announced the expansion of its Canoe Pro offering with four new Pro Partners: Deviate Consulting, Ellevate Consulting, Alpha Alternatives (formerly Lionpoint Group), and Prime Buchholz. Canoe Pro combines Canoe technology with Pro Partner services that enable clients to streamline their alts operations, make more informed decisions, and drive results for end clients. By expanding the program, Canoe gives clients greater access to vetted managed services expertise in the alts space, enabling tailored solutions that address each firm’s specific technology needs.

Canoe Pro pairs Canoe’s industry-leading document and data management technology with expert outsourced managed services for alternative investors looking for an all-in-one, fully outsourced solution to manage their investments. Each Canoe Pro Partner brings their unique aptitude to Canoe’s clients. Amplify Advisory Solutions (“Amplify”), the flagship Canoe Pro Partner, along with new Pro Partners Deviate Consulting and Ellevate Consulting, cater specifically to family offices and wealth managers. Rounding out the group are Alpha Alternatives and Prime Buchholz, both of whom specialize in serving enterprise and institutional customers. Canoe carefully matches each client with the most suitable Canoe Pro Partner based on their specific business requirements.

Kim Raymonde, Director of Partnerships & Integrations at Canoe, stated, “Expanding the network of Canoe Pro Partners is a critical step in enhancing our offering. Each new Pro Partner represents a greater ability to tailor solutions to our clients’ specific needs. By collaborating with top-tier managed service providers and integrating their expertise with our technology, we can further streamline our clients’ workflows and optimize their technology ecosystems.”

Canoe Pro Partners act as a seamless extension of a client’s operational team. They manage tasks like collecting documents, validating data and handling exceptions, integrating data into downstream systems, and even administering the Canoe platform on the client’s behalf. By combining Canoe Connect and Intelligence with these managed services, Canoe Pro accelerates the client’s value realization and ensures comprehensive workflow support on an ongoing basis.

“Canoe Pro embodies our commitment to providing truly end-to-end solutions that empower our clients. By introducing the expertise of our Pro Partners alongside our renowned technology, which has become an essential part of the alts workflow, we’re delivering an unmatched level of service and support and an unrivaled experience for our clients,” said Mike Muniz, Chief Revenue Officer at Canoe. “The rapid adoption we’ve seen this past year underscores the need for this comprehensive approach in certain market segments. With each new partner, we broaden our collective impact, driving innovation and accelerating the transformation of alts data management.”

The expansion of Canoe Pro showcases Canoe’s dedication to continuously innovating and providing best-in-class solutions for the alternative investment industry. This announcement follows the recent news of Canoe’s Series C financing round, led by Growth Equity at Goldman Sachs Alternatives (“Goldman Sachs”) with participation from existing investors F-Prime Capital and Eight Roads. Canoe Pro formally launched in November 2023 to integrate expert-managed services into the Canoe client experience.
