A dashcam image showed an AI vision overlay with a safety score and an unsafe lane change alert. The Products menu lists Driver Safety, Fleet Management, Equipment Monitoring, Maintenance, Spend Management (the Motive fleet card), Workforce Management, Operations Intelligence and a platform overview, with featured items such as AI Dashcam, Fleet Compliance, Fleet Telematics, GPS Fleet Tracking, Sustainability, Reefer Monitoring, IFTA Fuel Tax Reporting and Electronic Logging Device.
