- IoT and cloud integration: the development of AWS-based infrastructure to support the client’s IoT services.
- DevOps Integration: inclusion of automated CI/CD pipelines to secure smooth updates.
- Continuous support: the provision of expert recommendations to optimize the development strategies and outcomes.
Main Product Features
The platform tracks metrics via API and data sources.
It analyzes the data and sets criteria such as breaks, accelerations, turns, phone use, etc.
The solution allocates monthly incentives based on driving behaviors and provides real-time statistics for drivers to keep track of.
Business Context
SafeMode enhances traditional fleet management through AI-powered solutions. Its main product is a driver-focused platform that:
- Provides users with scoreboards and incentive plans with rewards to encourage drivers to safe driving, fuel efficiency, and compliance.
- Assists drivers with developing healthy driving habits and patterns through daily rewards, statistics, and feedback.
Challenges
