What makes Canopii different?

“We don’t just point the way. We walk alongside our clients, ensuring they reach their goals successfully.”
Brent Benner, Founder & President

more than just a consulting firm

We're Experienced Guides

Brent Benner founded Canopii Collaborative after seeing a gap in the Epic marketplace—while providers had plenty of support, payers lacked true partners who understood their unique challenges. As Ex-Epic leaders, we are more than just a consulting firm—we’re experienced guides, helping our clients confidently navigate complex, uncharted territories. With deep industry expertise and a people-first approach, we do what’s right—not just for our clients, but for the members, patients, and providers they serve.

A higher standard of service:

Unmatched Industry Expertise

Tailored Support & Expert Guidance

Experience-Driven Partnerships

Innovative, Scalable Solutions

Our consultants can support all Epic applications, but specialize in the Payer Suite. Led by President Brent Benner, former head of Epic’s Tapestry team, we combine deep industry knowledge with hands-on experience to deliver full-spectrum support.

Our leadership takes a hands-on role, often serving as your dedicated Account Executive. With extensive Epic implementation experience, we provide expert guidance and personalized solutions.

We go beyond software, understanding our client’s unique needs from real-world industry experience. We build partnerships on trust that enhance efficiency, streamline operations, and drive growth.

Canopii creates forward-thinking solutions that deliver impact. Our proprietary software address provider data issues and our Catalyst program aids organizations in building a sustainable workforce.
