Lytx, Geotab Partner to Provide Fleet Safety Support

Lytx, a global provider of machine vision- and artificial intelligence-powered video telematics solutions for fleets, announced a new integration with Geotab, a global leader in internet of things and connected transportation.

The integration, introduced at Geotab Connect 2020, creates what the companies call “a seamless experience—within a single interface—between Lytx’s unrivaled video-based telematics platform and Geotab’s world-leading fleet management capabilities.”

This integrated offering will be available via the Geotab Marketplace, a growing portfolio of hardware add-ons, software add-ins and mobile apps to help businesses better manage their fleets.

The Lytx and Geotab integration enables—through a single sign-on—browsing of video and data from Lytx’s DriveCam event recorders through the Geotab platform to help fleet managers understand exactly what is happening in their fleets at any moment.

“Lytx developed the video telematics industry over 20 years ago and continues to lead in providing advanced technologies for safer and more efficient fleets,” said Brandon Nixon, Lytx chairman and CEO, in a statement. “We are thrilled to work with Geotab to help better meet the needs of the fleets we work with and bring access to sophisticated video to many more. This integration, which seamlessly pairs Geotab’s exceptional fleet management platform with our own best-in-class video platform, will help fleets take their safety, productivity and efficiency to new heights.”

The Lytx Driver Safety Program combines machine vision and artificial intelligence (MV+AI) with professional review and behavior tagging, and it delivers prescriptive and customized coaching insights to fleet managers—exposing risk and filtering out the noise to help clients focus on what’s most important. Lytx leverages MV+AI and onboard sensors to collect information about what’s going on inside and around the vehicle.

“Video is an information-rich technology, and with our scale and advanced machine vision and artificial intelligence capabilities, Lytx is the leader in delivering actionable intelligence from video,” added Nixon. “This new integration gives fleets the power of the Driver Safety Program and our MV+AI technology to deliver the best safety insights in the industry—now in a single sign-on, integrated experience with the Geotab platform they know and love.”

Processing more than 40 billion data points every day, Geotab offers technology that connects commercial vehicles to the internet, helping businesses better manage their fleets through data-driven insights. By delivering critical business intelligence in the form of advanced and accurate data, Geotab provides fleets with enhanced visibility into their drivers and vehicles, helping to increase productivity and efficiency, boost compliance and improve driver safety.

“We are proud to partner with Lytx, a leader in the industry in both years of experience and miles of driving data,” said Geotab CEO Neil Cawse in a statement. “With this integration, more customers will be able to use the power of both companies’ technologies to easily manage fleets and drivers through a single-user interface, enabling a stronger return on investment without the need to juggle several different platforms at once.”
