Everything you need to run a storefront

Analytics Dashboard

Revenue trends, order counts, average order value, top products, and payout summaries — all in one real-time overview. Know your business at a glance.

AI Website Builder

Create professional websites by describing what you want in plain English. Our AI generates your theme, pages, content, and product integration — then keeps improving it with every prompt you send.

Track every order from placement to delivery. See commission splits, supplier assignments, tracking numbers, and carrier URLs. Process returns with a full lifecycle workflow.

Earnings & Payouts

View your commission earnings, pending payouts, and completed transfers. The system holds payouts during the return window and releases them automatically via Stripe Connect or Wise.

Marketplace Subscriptions

Browse the supplier marketplace, subscribe to catalogs (all products or selective), and manage your product assortment. New supplier products auto-sync to your store.

Promotions & Marketing

Create discounts and promotions with built-in guardrails — the system prevents discounts that exceed your commission rate. Run newsletter campaigns per-channel.

Forget templates and form fields. Just tell the AI what you want — "Make it luxurious with dark tones and gold accents" or "Add a hero section with our best-selling products." The AI generates your entire site and keeps refining it with every prompt.

  • Create multiple websites per channel, each with its own design
  • Dynamic catalog pages that auto-populate from your products
  • AI blogging with scheduling and product-linked articles
  • Three AI quality tiers: Standard, Pro, and Elite
  • Version history — roll back to any previous publish

Product Catalog

Upload and manage your full product catalog with variants, pricing, facets, and rich descriptions. Products auto-sync to every merchant who subscribes to your catalog.

Supplier Analytics

Track which merchants drive the most sales, monitor product performance across channels, identify stale inventory, and analyze return rates by product.

Fulfillment Center

Manage shipping methods, stock locations, and zones. Add tracking numbers with automatic carrier detection (FedEx, UPS, USPS, DHL, Canada Post, Royal Mail).

Team Roles

Assign dedicated roles for products, fulfillment, shipping, team management, and collections. Each team member sees only what they need.

Revenue Engine

Three-way splits. Automated.

When a customer buys on a merchant's store, the order engine automatically calculates and splits revenue three ways: merchant commission, supplier payout, and a small platform fee. No spreadsheets, no manual reconciliation.

Payouts are held during the return window (configurable per supplier), then released automatically via Stripe Connect or Wise — depending on the business's country. 74 countries supported with local bank deposits. The promotion guard ensures merchants never discount beyond their commission — violations are auto-disabled before they cost anyone money.

Example Split — $1,000 Order

Merchant Commission (20%)$200
Platform Fee (10%)$100
Supplier Payout (70%)$700
Payout holds until return window expiresAuto-released

Enterprise Security

Built for multi-tenant commerce

Every role, every route, every API call is permission-gated. Canopy enforces security at four independent layers so no single point of failure can expose data.

Role-Based Access Control

Every screen, every button, every API endpoint is gated by fine-grained permissions. 25 pre-built templates cover every combination of merchant and supplier access.

Defense in Depth

Four layers of security: server-side resolver guards, nav configuration overrides, client-side route interception, and channel picker restrictions. No single point of failure.

Multi-Tenant Isolation

Each business operates in its own channel with complete data isolation. A merchant can never see another merchant's orders, customers, or products.

Global Payment Infrastructure

PCI-DSS compliant payment processing via Stripe + payouts through Stripe Connect or Wise. Automatic tax calculation, 3-way commission splits, and payout automation across 74 countries.
