Coupa

What It Does

Coupa is a cloud business spend management platform covering procurement, sourcing, invoicing, expenses, supplier management, and payments. It is primarily a finance and procurement tool, not a legal-specific product, though its contract management module and supplier-risk controls overlap with legal operations and procurement-legal workflows. Buyers most likely to encounter it on the legal side are in-house teams reviewing supplier contracts inside a procurement process.

What We Found

Coupa was founded in 2006 and is based in Foster City, California. It traded publicly on Nasdaq before Thoma Bravo took it private in a deal that closed in 2023. It is an enterprise-scale company serving Fortune 500 procurement teams, with several thousand employees — far larger than the “11-50” range previously listed here, which we removed as inaccurate. The integrations recorded on this page (AWS Marketplace, Celigo, Jitterbit, Sage Intacct) reflect its app marketplace.

What We Haven’t Verified

• Current headcount and LinkedIn follower count — not captured with a dated source.
• The depth and status of the listed marketplace integrations beyond their presence in Coupa’s catalogue.
• How much of Coupa’s footprint is genuinely “legal tech” versus procurement/finance.
