Netradyne uses AI dashcams to reward safe driving

The DriverStars program from Netradyne uses AI to track and reward safe fleet driving, with over 20B miles analyzed and 100M positive events logged.

Netradyne, a San Diego-based fleet safety company founded in 2015, utilizes AI-enabled dashcams to monitor driving behaviors and surrounding conditions, aiming to improve road safety through positive reinforcement.

The company’s approach integrates advanced AI with a focus on encouraging positive driver actions. Adam Kahn, Netradyne’s chief business development officer, emphasized the benefit of daily positive feedback, stating, “Why not tell someone they’re doing a good job every day?” He added that consistently acknowledging positive performance shifts safety culture from punitive to reward-based, leading to significant improvements in fleet outcomes.

Netradyne’s solution is a safety platform employing high-definition video safety and management technology powered by advanced AI. This system uses vision-based object detection to analyze every minute of drive time, achieving up to 99% accuracy in its assessments. The company has analyzed over 20 billion driving miles since its inception, accumulating a substantial dataset for behavioral analysis.

A central component of Netradyne’s positive reinforcement strategy is its DriverStars program. As of July, this program had recognized more than 100 million positive driving events. The DriverStars initiative leverages real-time analysis and edge computing to identify and reward favorable driver behaviors, according to a company news release. The program also incorporates a “GreenZone” score, which gamifies safety improvements by providing rewards based on performance, and Netradyne asserts that improvements in this score correlate directly with a reduction in crashes. Kahn noted the impact of this philosophy, observing positive results when drivers and fleets adopt a supportive approach rather than focusing on disciplinary conversations.

Kahn identified four common risky driving behaviors that contribute to crashes: excessive speed, driver distraction, following too closely, and disregarding traffic signals. He explained that Netradyne tracks comprehensive data related to these activities. Instead of solely informing a driver of three minutes of distracted driving, the system prioritizes the duration of non-distracted driving. Kahn stated, “If I can create awareness around your compliance, the next thing I can do is try to incentivize the improvement of that compliance.” This approach aims to foster a proactive shift in driver habits by highlighting and encouraging adherence to safety protocols.

In January, Netradyne completed a Series D funding round, securing $90 million. Kahn indicated that this capital infusion would be allocated to enhance customer care, support the company’s expansion into new global markets, and fuel research and development initiatives.

The company is also developing predictive capabilities within its platform. Kahn explained, “Instead of waiting for a vehicle or a driver to do something, based on where they’re at, I can start to forecast and assist the driver in moments where maybe there’s an ice storm.” He highlighted the potential to proactively address issues rather than merely reacting to them, thereby enhancing driver safety and operational efficiency.

Looking to future applications of its extensive data, Netradyne CEO and co-founder Avneesh Agrawal previously informed TechCrunch that the company intends to leverage its collected driving data to train a driving model. This model could potentially be utilized by autonomous vehicle companies for their development efforts. Furthermore, Agrawal stated that Netradyne is increasing its investment in generative AI to enhance its copilot tool. Kahn commented on the rapid evolution of AI, noting, “Three years ago, if we talked about AI versus today, vastly different. Three years from now when we talk about AI versus today, it’ll be vastly different.” He affirmed Netradyne’s commitment to maintaining a leading position in innovation within the AI landscape.
