How does Kanary Copilot work?

Kanary is a mobile app that automates tasks like monitoring for data leaks, strengthening settings to prevent leaks in the future, and removing sensitive data from public search engines, data brokers, and social platforms. The app does all the searching, tapping, and maneuvering for you. So all you have to do is click Start, and occasionally prove you’re a human.

What happens next depends on your priorities, risks, and engagement. Kanary’s goal is to help you tackle online safety challenges in an approachable and automated way.

Why should I trust you?

Since 2020, we’ve been building software to find safety risks and help you fight back. Throughout the journey, we’ve written publicly about our work on our blog, reddit, and X. We have never shared or sold data to 3rd parties. Mozilla (creator of Firefox) was our first investor and we're funded by our customers.

Our technical vision is clear. We are moving toward a trust-less architecture where your information is stored on your phone and the humans at Kanary don’t have access to it. This is hard to build while balancing quality and cost. We’re making progress toward it and appreciate your support.

You can meet our team and join the community on Discord & socials.

Why/how is Kanary Copilot free?

It’s free because helping more people tackle online safety problems is our mission. We don't want cost to be a barrier, especially for younger people just establishing their online footprint. We believe online safety should not be limited to executives or celebrities. Everyone should have access to the protection they need.

We fund Kanary by offering a premium tier and enterprise plans. With premium, you can protect loved ones, cover deeper risks, and get priority support.

Is Kanary Copilot “AI”?

Copilot isn’t a chatbot. No, it doesn’t use OpenAI.

But, yes, there are scripts that automate work for you, saving you hours of work. Yes, the Kanary team uses private, secure, and tested LLMs to speed up development.

Is Kanary Copilot US-only?

Kanary Copilot works best if you are a US resident or citizen, or if you've been a US resident in the past. It also works for members who have an association with a US address or business.

Our team focuses on protecting you from risks associated with US-based social media companies, search engines, and data brokers.
