Canary Technologies, which provides guest
management solutions for hotels, has closed a $50 million Series C funding
round – bringing its total funding to date to nearly $100 million.
The round was led by global software
investor Insight Partners, which also led the company’s Series B in 2022, with participation
from existing investors F-Prime Capital, Thayer Ventures, Y-Combinator and
Commerce Ventures.
Canary works with more than 20,000
hoteliers around the world, including many that are aligned with brands such as Wyndham,
Marriott, Hilton and Four Seasons.
It provides solutions to digitize
everything from post-booking through checkout – to help eliminate paper
processes, increase efficiency, boost revenue, improve the guest experience and
reduce chargebacks and payment fraud. The company said it is also currently
deploying what it calls “one of the largest rollouts of guest-facing [artificial intelligence] technology in hospitality ever.”
