Global connected vehicle solutions company Geotab has announced the launch of a new AI dash cam and video intelligence platform in a bid to remove risky driving behaviours.
The GO Focus Plus AI dash cam is a dual-facing design that addresses a critical industry need in delivering proactive, in-cab voice support that helps drivers self-correct risky habits.
A recent large pilot saw the voice coaching functionality reduce tailgating by 90 per cent and phone use by 95 per cent.
The system turns every alert into a coaching opportunity, aiming to prevent accidents and create a measurable impact on fleet safety culture.

“The transport industry is under pressure like never before,” Geotab associate vice president of safety solutions in Asia Pacific and Latin America, Fernando Ferreira, says.
“From driver shortages to rising costs and increasing safety risks, fleets are being stretched on all sides. Drivers are also facing huge challenges – long hours, unpredictable conditions and sometimes unfair blame when incidents occur.
“Our new video intelligence platform is designed to make things easier, not harder, by delivering proactive coaching and practical insights right when they’re needed most. It’s a big step towards safer fleets, healthier drivers, and building confidence behind the wheel, which ultimately benefits everyone on the road.”
The key features of the GO Focus Plus include proactive driver coaching, targeted fleet management and seamless workflow and safety culture.
“Fleets don’t just need more data, they need smarter ways to use it. With the GO Focus Plus AI dash cam, we’re combining Geotab’s connected vehicle insights with intelligent, in-cab coaching to give drivers instant support exactly when they need it,” Geotab global markets vice president Sean Killen says.
“At the same time, fleet managers get the tools to foster a culture of safety that feels supportive rather than punitive, turning every alert into an opportunity for learning. This is about more than technology – it’s about making sure every driver gets home safe at the end of the day, while helping businesses stay resilient and competitive in a challenging industry.”
On top of this, Geotab’s evolving new AI video intelligence platform is set to provide fleets with the smartest and sharpest tools to stay ahead of risk without extra administrative work.
The new video intelligence platform, with the GO Focus Plus AI dash cam, represents a significant step forward in Geotab’s commitment to fleet safety, uniting driving data and video, to deliver a complete picture of risk and a path for improvement.
