KeepTruckin released a new technology that uses high-frequency telematics data and artificial intelligence to analyze driver and vehicle efficiency, and then identify actionable cost saving measures.
The company’s Fuel Hub uses proprietary AI models to review datasets in real time to pinpoint the driver behaviors and vehicle issues that impact fuel consumption, company officials said in a press release. These insights are then automatically surfaced in the Fuel Hub to create one consolidated view of consumption across an entire fleet.
In this fuel command-center, customers can identify trends and outliers, and benchmark performance against a network of over 400,000 vehicles in North America to determine the true fuel efficiency profile of a driver or vehicle relative to their peers. Fleets can then automate coaching to modify driver behaviors that lead to poor fuel economy, or establish powerful incentive programs to retain top performers.
These actionable insights can help fleets save up to 10% on annual fuel costs, company officials said.
