Breaking the exclusivity of executive coaching: Introducing our AI Assistant
Leadership coaching shouldn’t be available only to the few who can afford it 💰 So, we're opening up our decade-plus worth of leadership research with our AI Assistant.
How many leaders can afford a $1,000/hour executive coach?
Some might, sure… But for most of us, it’s just not tenable 😅
Leadership coaching is one of the most exclusive services out there. I say this having been an executive coach myself for over the past decade.
My rate as an executive coach is $1,000 per hour – and while I know the executives I worked with were benefiting from my coaching and receiving more than $1K/hour worth of value, I thought:
What about everyone else?
What about all the other leaders who couldn’t personally pay $1,000/hour or have their organization cover that cost?
Not everyone has the means to afford executive coaching…
But as leaders, we all crave talking to someone. To get feedback, to get external advice.
As a result, one of my biggest dreams here at Canopy ever since I founded it a decade ago, has been to make leadership coaching more accessible to leaders.
Now, I’m excited to share that we’re closer to that dream than ever before with our new Canopy AI Assistant.
Below, I share how it works and how you can try it for free.
Our Canopy AI Assistant is now live! 🎉
Here’s how the Canopy AI Assistant works:
(1) Sign-up for a free Canopy account and go to the “Coach” area…
(2) Ask a question (and use our templates if helpful)…
(3) Then you get a response, based on your context and our Canopy content.…
Our AI Assistant is trained exclusively on Canopy content and methodology – and so it will also recommend other Canopy content to explore deeper, if helpful.
Give it a spin yourself here 🚀
Here are some examples of situations that leaders have asked our AI Assistant and gotten a helpful response…
How should I approach deadlines with my team?
How do I give constructive feedback to a high-performing employee?
How to prioritize my time and thinking?
How to give feedback upward?
I’m a brand new manager, where should I start?
Got any of these situations you’d like more support on? Take advantage of our AI Assistant to get immediate advice here 💡
Use our AI Assistant for immediate feedback – then leverage a Coach for greater nuance.
Of course, AI is far from perfect. Sometimes you might prefer to talk a real-life expert, and gain a deeper perspective on a complex challenge.
For a more personalized, nuanced answer, you can always directly message a Canopy coach and get a response within 48 hours.
Here’s an example of if you wanted a more in-depth answer from a real-life Canopy coach. (In this specific case, you’re speaking with Jenny, who has over a decade of leadership development experience and is sharing the linkage between low morale and burnout…)

More leaders deserve thoughtful support.
Exclusivity riles my blood.
So I’m thrilled to take this is one small but meaningful step toward making leadership coaching more accessible to all leaders.
With our AI Assistant, you get your first handful of queries 100% for free.
Then, beyond that, for unlimited access to our AI Assistant it’s $49/month billed annually. And if you wanted even more personalized live support with areal-life Canopy coach, it’s $125/month billed annually. (See all our pricing here.)
In short: A year’s worth of value for less than 1 hour's cost of executive coaching.
My hope is this gives leaders more options for support that is both economical and thoughtful.
