AI dash cams for fleet risk management
Onboard AI spots harsh braking, distraction, drowsiness and phone use instantly, alerting drivers and managers, with footage backed up automatically.
SD cards can't watch your drivers. AI can.
Traditional dash cams only capture what happened. By the time you retrieve the footage, the risky habit has repeated itself a dozen times.
There's no way to spot distraction, drowsiness or phone use in the moment, let alone step in before it becomes an incident.
Days of waiting
Footage sits on SD cards in vehicles spread across different locations, with no way to view it remotely. An incident discovered on a Friday might not have footage retrieved until the following week.
Manual retrieval processes
Someone has to visit each vehicle, remove the SD card, transfer files to a computer and search hours of footage for the right clip. That's time taken away from running the rest of your operation.
Missed golden hour deadlines
Missed golden hour deadlines for First Notification of Loss because footage isn't available quickly enough. Insurers need evidence within 24 hours but your video is trapped in vehicles you cannot reach.
No real time visibility
You only find out about incidents after they've happened, with no alerts to help you respond. Vehicle tracking can show you where a vehicle is, but without a connected camera, you can't see what's happening on the road.
What makes a dash cam "connected"?
AI behaviour detection
AI is built into the dash cam to flag risky behaviours the moment they happen, rather than relying on someone spotting them later.
Upload footage automatically
Connected dash cams use 4G mobile networks to upload footage automatically to the cloud.
Remote video access via web or app
Unlike SD card cameras that store everything locally, connected systems give you remote access to video from anywhere through a web portal or mobile app.
Instant alerts & live streaming
The connection means instant alerts when events occur and live streaming directly from vehicles.
Data retrieval
Everything happens remotely, including automatic evidence submission to insurers, without physically accessing vehicles or retrieving storage cards.

Key features of connected dash cams
Key benefits of connected dash cams
Live incident awareness
Push notifications alert you the moment events occur. You can respond while situations develop rather than discovering problems hours later.
Proactive risk reduction
AI detection of distraction and drowsiness lets you coach drivers before a habit becomes a collision. Our guide on how dash cams improve road safety covers more.
Less admin
Footage uploads automatically, so there's no SD card retrieval, no chasing drivers for clips and no transferring files between devices.
Manage from your phone
Stream live video, download clips and receive alerts from the vehicle tracking app, wherever you are, so you can keep an eye on vehicles without being tied to a desk.
Instant evidence access
Download footage within minutes of an incident. There's no waiting for drivers to return or travelling out to collect SD cards.
Faster claims resolution
Send evidence to insurers quickly after an incident. Fast access to footage helps speed up liability decisions and gets vehicles back on the road sooner.
Secure cloud storage
Footage is backed up to the cloud, so it's still available even if a camera is damaged in a serious incident or someone tampers with it.
Lower insurance costs
Some insurers offer discounts for vehicles with dash cams. Clear evidence and fewer fraudulent claims can also help when it comes to fleet insurance renewals.

Frequently asked questions about connected dash cams
A connected dash cam uploads video directly to online storage using a mobile data connection. This eliminates the need to physically collect SD cards from vehicles. Managers can watch footage on their computers or phones, get notified immediately when driving incidents happen, and even watch what's happening in vehicles right now through live streaming.
Onboard AI analyses driver behaviour in real time, recognising patterns like phone use, drowsiness and distraction as they happen. When risky behaviour is detected, the driver receives an in-cab alert and fleet managers get a push notification, both instantly, without anyone needing to review footage first.

The key difference is accessibility. SD dash cams keep everything stored in the vehicle until someone retrieves the card manually. Connected models send video over the mobile network so you can view it remotely. If you need evidence quickly for an insurance claim or want to know about an incident as it happens, connected systems deliver that. SD card models work better for basic recording needs where immediate access isn't critical.

Yes, you can view several vehicle cameras at the same time. The platform lets you switch quickly between different vehicles or watch multiple video streams together on one screen. Useful for checking on various operations happening simultaneously across your business.
Any video already sent to online storage stays safe and accessible. Even if a camera gets destroyed in a severe crash or someone tries to tamper with it, you'll still have the footage that was uploaded before the damage occurred. This backup protection is one of the main advantages over cameras that only store locally.
Yes. Connected dash cams work in cars, vans, HGVs and commercial vehicles of all sizes. Van dash cams are particularly popular for delivery and trade businesses, whilst the same system works equally well in trucks, lorries and smaller fleet vehicles. Professional installation ensures cameras fit properly regardless of your vehicle type.
