Founded in 2008, Canvas specializes in Software as a Service (SaaS). It achieved a first round of funding in 2011.[4] In 2014, the company had 50 employees.[4] It was acquired by private equity firm K1 Investment Management for more than $100 million at the end of 2018.[5] In June 2024, Nemetschek announced that it has acquired GoCanvas for $770 million.[6]

GoCanvas services provide mobile and tablet interfaces for filling out forms or collecting other data, which is then stored online, through a cloud model. Apps offered by the company allow businesses to decrease paper usage.[4] MyCanvas is a service which allows access to data created by paid accounts, allowing, for example, a customer to review records they have submitted to a GoCanvas user.[7][8]

GoCanvas allows users to customize their apps and can include GPS location capture, photos, signature capture, and reference data. Data can be exported in a comma-separated values spreadsheet or a pdf.[9]

GoCanvas is a competitor of other digital forms providers such as Jotform, GoFormz, and Formstack.
