Canary Technologies, a hotel guest management platform, has raised $80 million in a Series D funding round led by Brighton Park Capital, with participation from Insight Partners and YC Continuity. Founded in 2018 by Harman Singh Narula and SJ Sawhney, the company has now amassed nearly $180 million in funding.
Canary aims to modernize hotel operations by digitizing and automating the guest journey. The platform offers solutions for mobile check-ins, AI-driven guest support via text, web, and voice, and seamless integration with hotel branding. “Running a hotel is increasingly complex,” said Singh Narula, highlighting how Canary helps address evolving guest expectations and operational challenges like staffing shortages.
The company’s services are used by 20,000 hotels across 100+ countries, including brands such as Rosewood Hotels, Marriott, Best Western, and Wyndham. While competitors like Cloudbeds and Revinate are active in this space, Canary differentiates itself through its comprehensive and customizable suite of tools.
This funding will enable Canary to further integrate AI technology, expand its global presence, and enhance its platform’s capabilities, reinforcing its commitment to improving profitability and guest experiences for hoteliers worldwide.
