Kanarys

aid: kanarys
name: Kanarys
description: 'Kanarys, Inc. was a Dallas, Texas workforce-analytics company founded in 2018 by Mandy Price, Star Carter and
  Bennie King. Its SaaS platform combined employee experience surveys, demographic and cultural data, anonymous employee reviews
  and peer benchmarking to give enterprise HR and diversity leaders analytics on workplace inclusion. Integration with customer
  HRIS, ATS and payroll systems was delivered as managed, per-customer connectors run by Kanarys staff rather than as a self-serve
  public API, and the company never published a developer portal, an OpenAPI or any other machine-readable contract. Kanarys
  raised a $5M Series A, counted 7-Eleven and Yum! Brands among its customers, and in mid-2024 sold its intellectual property
  and name to a special-purpose vehicle formed by a group of former chief diversity officers; co-founder Mandy Price left
  for the Draper Richards Kaplan Foundation in February 2025. The company now operates no public web surface: kanarys.com
  served the real site as recently as 22 April 2026 and is a GoDaddy parking lander as of 17 May 2026, and no successor domain
  resolves.'

  detail: Kanarys sold its IP and name to a chief-diversity-officer special-purpose vehicle in mid-2024 and its domain has
    since been abandoned — kanarys.com served the real site through 22 April 2026 and by 17 May 2026 became a GoDaddy parking
    lander that answers HTTP 200 with the same 114-byte redirect stub for every path, including a randomly generated control
    path, /openapi.json and /.well-known/agent-card.json.
