A calmer way to watch the air

Know the air before the school run.

Canary watches the air at home, school, and everywhere your kid goes — and gives you a calm heads-up before it turns rough. You can't be everywhere. Canary can.

Checking the air… Los Angeles

Canary watches this number at home, school, and work — and taps you on the shoulder when it crosses your line.

One less thing to keep in your head.

Canary makes the invisible feel simple: the air at the places that matter, in one calm little app.

A tiny bird with a big job

The air can change fast. Your plan can stay simple.

Canary is made for the moments when you need a helpful answer, not another tab to open.

01

Pick your places.

Home, school, daycare, work, grandma's house - name the places that deserve a quick look.

02

Set your comfort line.

Choose an earlier heads-up for sensitive lungs, or keep it simple with the AQI level that feels right for your family.

03

Get the heads-up.

When the air shifts, Canary helps you see it before the day gets away from you.

The moment that matters

Get warned before the group text starts.

A calm alert can turn a chaotic morning into a small adjustment. Keep the windows closed. Move the playdate indoors. Pack the inhaler. You decide what makes sense.

Make invisible air visible

Sometimes one picture says it better.

Canary turns a complicated number into a shareable air snapshot. It is the easy way to tell a friend, a co-parent, or a whole school group what is happening outside.

From the beta

Parents are already breathing easier.

I used to check the air once in the morning and hope for the best. Now Canary watches my daughter’s school and tells me when it’s worth changing our plans.
Maya R. — parent of two, Eagle Rock, CA
The alert came before pickup, when the air near school got rough. It gave me one less thing to carry in my head on an already busy day.
Jordan L. — Los Angeles parent
Canary makes the number make sense. I can see whether it’s a normal outdoor day or an inhaler-in-the-backpack day.
Priya S. — parent and asthma caregiver

Try the whole flock for 14 days.
