Analytics startup company Drive Spotter has announced plans to scale its video analytics program, which is designed to improve commercial fleet vehicle and driver performance.
The company was launched in 2015 and has operations in Omaha, Neb., Des Moines, Iowa, and Austin, Texas.
Fleet managers can use the Drive Spotter platform to query dash cams and telemetry data for an analysis of fleet data. The insights can be used to tune driver training and provide incentive structures that can boost driver performance and reduce operating costs and accidents.
Insurance and fleet service companies can also access Drive Spotter’s aggregate data to evaluate risks and assist with setting fleet premiums.
The company received $750,000 in financing from investors that will be aimed at scaling its product and growing the development team.
“This seed funding is helping to scale our product and grow our team on the Silicon Prairie, such as the fleet operations office we opened in Des Moines, Iowa,” said Chris Augeri, Drive Spotter’s president and CEO.
