Reporting is a manual job
Exporting, pivoting, and formatting takes a week, and it starts again the next month.

The numbers, without the exportThe numbers, without the exportThe numbers, without the export
Canary reports on the work as it happens. Ask a question in plain language, get the chart, and share the view — nobody rebuilds the same spreadsheet every month.
The Challenge
By the time the report is finished, it describes last month
[02]
Two versions of the truth
Everyone keeps their own spreadsheet, so the meeting spends its first half reconciling numbers.
[03]
Nothing is current
The dashboard on the wall is as fresh as the last person who remembered to update it.
[04]
You can't ask a new question
Anything the template didn't anticipate means starting the export over.
The solution
Every asset connected in one place.
[Automate]
Ask a question, get the chart
Describe what you want to see and Canary builds it from live work orders, assets, and readings.
- Ask in plain language instead of building a pivot table.
- Read from live work rather than last month's export.
- Save and share the view so everyone reads the same number.
[Execute]
Track the KPIs your team is judged on
PM compliance, MTTR, MTBF, and availability side by side, per site and per asset.
- Watch PM compliance on time, late, and missed.
- Follow MTTR and MTBF by asset and by site.
- Break down downtime into planned and unplanned.
[Optimize]
Optimize maintenance performance
Overall equipment effectiveness broken into availability, performance, and quality, with the losses named.
- Read OEE down to its three components.
- Find the recurring losses and what they cost.
- Prove the improvement with the same numbers every month.
Core capabilities
Best for teams who spend the last week of the month building the report.
Live Dashboards
Read from the work orders themselves.
Plain-Language Queries
Ask for a chart and get one.
PM Compliance
On-time, late, and missed, per site.
Downtime and MTTR
Where the hours are actually going.
Cost Reporting
Labour, parts, and contractor spend per asset.
Scheduled Exports
The same view, in an inbox, every Monday.
We used to lose hours tracking down parts across spreadsheets and storerooms. Canary gave us real-time visibility into every part, every location. Stockouts dropped, carrying costs fell, and our technicians finally have what they need when they need it.
