KeepTruckin, a fleet management platform that the ELD application is their mainstay and that has more than has a million of drivers already registered on their system, has enhanced their optional feature Smart Dashcam on the company’s mobile platform.

Thanks to the use of machine-driven algorithms provide by KeepTruckin events that can be considered as important are identified and analyzed by the feature providing to fleet managers important data and context about incidents.


Video annotation:
