Webfleet Solutions and Lytx join forces on WEBFLEET Video

PRESS RELEASE

BURLINGTON, MA—Webfleet Solutions, a leading telematics provider and part of Bridgestone, announced January 26, 2021, a new collaboration with Lytx, a global provider of video telematics solutions for fleets, to offer an integrated video-based solution to better visualize how fleets are performing on the road.

WEBFLEET Video is a seamless integration of Lytx’s camera technology into Webfleet Solutions’ fleet management system. Fleet operators will be able to access and manage both their vehicles and their in-vehicle cameras via WEBFLEET, the award-winning fleet management platform, offering a single interface experience. 

WEBFLEET Video combines Webfleet Solutions’ vehicle and driving data with Lytx’s advanced machine vision (MV) and artificial intelligence (AI)-powered camera technology to give fleet operators insight into critical events, helping to prevent accidents, increase safety for the driver, enhance fleet efficiency and reduce the frequency and cost of insurance claims. 

“We are convinced that Lytx, the leading company in video telematics, is the right partner to introduce our fully integrated video solution in WEBFLEET,” says Raj Bajaj, vice president of Webfleet Solutions International. “Together, we can even better meet the needs of the fleets we serve with increased safety and efficiency. WEBFLEET Video will also provide clear evidence in the event of road traffic incidents. This protects the driver against fraudulent claims, while also helping the company to avoid lengthy legal proceedings and to refute incorrect damage or injury claims.”

WEBFLEET uses driving behavior data on idling or harsh braking to provide actionable insights and real-time feedback that supports drivers to drive more safely and sustainably. With the addition of Lytx’s video technology, fleet managers now have a better understanding of why these events occur. They can protect their drivers from non-fault claims and coach them to achieve a higher level of road safety. 

“We are excited to combine our expertise to equip many more customers worldwide with best-in-class solutions,” says Damian Penney, vice president, Europe at Lytx. “Many fleet managers today leverage more than one technology, which can be a lot to juggle. Finding opportunities to consolidate is crucial. Through this integration, customers will be able to seamlessly access industry-leading video-based driver behavior and fleet management insights.”
