Copper is the client and project management platform purpose-built for professional services businesses. Think marketing and creative agencies, consultancies, media firms, and other project-based teams that run on relationships, not transactions.
These businesses don’t follow simple, linear sales cycles. Their work is complex, collaborative, and ongoing. They’re constantly moving between pitching new clients, managing active engagements, and delivering on tight timelines. Yet most CRMs ignore this reality - forcing sales and delivery teams into siloed tools that don’t talk to each other.
That’s the gap we’re closing. Copper helps service-based teams manage the entire customer journey in one beautifully designed, Google Workspace-native platform - from first email to final deliverable. With a shared view of contacts, deals, tasks, and projects, our customers eliminate duplicate work, reduce handoff issues, and create consistently excellent client experiences.
Thousands of professional services firms trust Copper to keep their client work on track and we’re just getting started. Backed by $100 million in funding and growing fast, we’re building the modern operating system for relationship-led businesses.
