Geotab, a global leader in connected vehicle solutions and asset management, today announced the launch of the GO Focus Plus AI dash cam and its new video intelligence platform.
This dual-facing dash cam is designed to address a critical industry need by delivering proactive, in-cab support that helps drivers self-correct risky habits. In a recent large pilot, the voice coaching functionality helped reduce tailgating by 90% and phone use by 95%.
Go Focus Plus helps fleets improve driver safety by delivering instant, highly accurate voice feedback to drivers, while also providing fleet managers with a new coaching platform to help deliver targeted and effective training. This system turns every alert into a coaching opportunity, aiming to prevent accidents and create a measurable impact on fleet safety culture.
The transportation industry is at a crucial juncture. A recent Geotab survey noted that drivers believe there is an increase in driving accidents, with 46% having considered leaving the profession in the year prior. Commercial drivers face long hours, unpredictable conditions, stress and wellness challenges, and even unfair blame in incidents. At the same time, fleet managers are dealing with rising costs, the vital need to keep their workforce safe, and the need to protect the company’s reputation. These challenges have a profound human and financial impact, directly affecting driver well-being, business vitality, and the safety of our shared roads.
Charlie Elliott, Senior Vice President, Marketing & Marketplace at Geotab said:We believe the safest fleet is a well-supported fleet. Our new video intelligence platform and the GO Focus Plus AI dash cam are a direct investment in supporting the driver and their safety. By uniting the power of video with Geotab data intelligence, we are providing drivers with an in-cab partner that helps them correct risks instantly. This system empowers fleet managers to move beyond reactive incident review and instead foster a culture of safety that protects their most valuable asset, which is their people.
Key Features of the GO Focus Plus
