Insight Partners backs Canary Technologies’ mission to elevate hotel guest experiences

The hospitality industry is experiencing a resurgence, presenting technology startups with an opportunity to assist hotels in streamlining operations and enhancing the guest experience.

Today’s travelers have high expectations when it comes to technology, preferring to communicate with the front desk via text message rather than traditional methods. This shift has created a need for hotels to embrace technology to stay competitive in a market where options like Airbnb are gaining traction.

Canary Technologies, founded by Harman Singh Narula and SJ Sawhney, aims to provide hotels with the tools to offer superior guest experiences through technology integration. The platform digitizes the entire guest journey, from booking to checkout, offering features such as mobile check-in/out, guest messaging, and digital tipping.

Having worked with major hotel brands like Marriott International and Four Seasons, Canary Technologies has seen significant growth in recent years, with a 100% increase in revenue since 2022. The company recently secured $50 million in Series C funding to expand its guest-facing AI technology deployment.

The investment, led by Insight Partners, underscores the confidence in Canary Technologies’ ability to deliver innovative solutions to the hospitality industry. With a total fundraising of nearly $100 million to date, the company is poised for further growth and success.
