Voice-to-Data Safety Intelligence
Some operations find out about risks in the incident report.The best ones hear them coming.
Your crews are already broadcasting the warnings. Canary Waves makes sure the right people hear them.
- No new radio hardware required
- Works passively on your existing infrastructure
- Early warnings reach leadership — not just the incident report
Platform
Every shift, your radios hold data no one is reading.
Two-way radio has not fundamentally changed since the 1970s. But what we can now do with it has. The signal intelligence that prevents incidents is already in your daily radio traffic — it is just never been captured, structured, or surfaced to the people who need it.
Canary Waves listens to what your crews are already saying, finds the patterns that precede incidents, and gets that intelligence to the right people while there is still time to act.
- Turns raw radio audio into searchable transcripts — tuned for your site slang, equipment names, and terminology.
- Flags collision risk patterns, skipped protocols, and early equipment stress signals before they escalate into incidents.
- Delivers shift-level summaries so leaders see what matters — without reviewing hours of audio.
The information needed to prevent the next incident is already being said on site. It is just not reaching the right people in time.
— The founding insight behind Canary WavesSignals
The warnings your crews are already broadcasting — to no one who can act.
Equipment Communication and Collision Prevention
Stop the next metal-on-metal before the shift ends.Unsafe pass patterns get mentioned on channel 3. Canary Waves flags dangerous equipment communication in real time.
Hazard Identification and Mitigation Tracking
Hazards mentioned in passing should not disappear.Canary Waves captures every mention, tracks mitigation follow-through, and builds an auditable record.
Contractor Oversight and KPI Confidence
See performance with proof, not promises.Measure contract delivery and frontline execution with evidence, not assumptions.
Workflow
From radio chatter to intelligence your team can act on.
Capture
Connect to your existing radio infrastructure.
Transcribe
Convert audio to searchable text in near real time.
Analyze
Surface collision risk patterns and hazard mentions.
Report
Put decision-ready summaries in front of the right people.
Team
Built by people who've stood on the sites they're making safer.
Canary Waves exists because Jack has worked the sites where preventable incidents still happen — and Julia has spent a career building technology that actually gets adopted.
Jack Kellner
Co-founder and Mining Engineer
Built Canary Waves because he knew the warning signals were already there on every site — they just were not being captured.
Julia Georgi
Co-founder and Tech Entrepreneur
Builds the systems and strategy to make sure Canary Waves becomes the safety intelligence standard for industrial operations.

First POC partners co-shape the product roadmap and get priority access
FAQ
Questions we hear from safety and ops leaders.
No — that is the whole point. Canary Waves works entirely in the background.
Mining and quarrying first — where two-way radio is still the backbone of site communication.
Most POC deployments are operational within days of connecting to site radio data.
All audio is processed with strong encryption and can be automatically deleted post-analysis.
