OUR STORY
For generations, canaries served as early warning systems in mines, their keen sensitivity detecting threats humans couldn't perceive. Today, we apply that same principle of vigilant detection to the digital landscape where children face hidden exploitation.
Like a canary, we raise the alarm for those at greatest risk. Precise and dependable. Uniting forces from tech, non-profits, law enforcement, and government.
Our commitment is unwavering. We remain vigilant until every child is seen and safe.

We started
with Spotlight.
Every day more than 300,000 sex classified ads are posted in the U.S. Somewhere in that haystack are children who are bought and sold for sex. We aren't look for needles, we are looking for children. Spotlight by Canary, turns a massive amount of data into an actionable intelligence for law enforcement to identify children being exploited online, faster.

We're expanding our reach to protect more children.
Child sexual exploitation takes many forms beyond trafficking. Every child deserves safety, dignity, and the chance to simply be a child. We're scaling the innovative tools that work, strengthening connections between data and those on the frontlines, and advancing research that transforms minor signals into actionable intelligence —accelerating identification across more dimensions of online child sexual exploitation.
