## Key features

Everything you need to detect, coach and change driver behavior automatically.

When Geotab’s native GO Focus Plus and Pro dash cams detect risky behavior, it delivers an immediate verbal alert. Drivers correct course on the spot - before the moment becomes an incident.

## A smarter coaching program that delivers measurable results

Geotab's Video Coaching connects  AI detection to a full coaching workflow — reducing risky behavior, protecting drivers and giving safety managers back their time.

### Less time on footage review, more time on coaching

Automated triage, ranked event queues and one-click coaching approvals replace hours spent sorting footage and verifying alerts manually.

### Risky behavior gets corrected faster

The shorter the gap between a risky event and driver feedback, the better the outcome. Coaching sessions can route directly to drivers without a manager having to manually approve each one.

### Exoneration protection built in

Every verified event stores road-facing footage, cabin footage, speed and G-force data together in one package. When a claim is disputed, the evidence is already there — AI-verified and ready to use.

### Builds driver trust

Alerts are accurate. Coaching ties to what a driver actually did and their Driver Score reflects that. Speed limit disputes come with video of the actual speed sign. Drivers see it as objective, which keeps them engaged with it. 

### A coaching program that closes the loop

Coaching sessions are assigned automatically or by a manager and delivered directly to drivers via the Geotab Video Driver App.  Drivers review flagged events, respond with notes and managers track progress end-to-end, so nothing falls through.

### A documented safety program that insurers reward

Collision Risk trends, coaching session history and driver behavior data give your fleet the evidence needed to negotiate lower premiums and demonstrate duty of care when it matters most.

-   **Example 1:** A large US fleet cut driver phone use by 95% within 90 days of deploying GO Focus Plus with real-time voice coaching.
-   **Example 2:** Fleets using Geotab's video coaching workflow see up to a 35% improvement in driver safety behaviors.
-   **Example 3:** A major fleet chose GO Focus Plus over Motive after a head-to-head pilot — citing better insights, better coaching outcomes, and a significant drop in risky driving.

How it works

## Detect. Coach. Improve. The closed-loop workflow

-   **Detect:** AI dash cams analyze in-cab and road-facing behavior in real time. Events are detected and re-evaluated on-device before an alert is triggered — no human review team, no delays.
-   **Coach**: In-cab voice alerts prompt drivers to self-correct instantly. Post-trip, magnitude scoring surfaces the highest-risk events and AI generates coaching sessions ready to assign with one click. Once assigned, coaching sessions are delivered directly to drivers through the Geotab Video Driver App — a mobile app where drivers access their flagged events, review coaching and respond with two-way notes, closing the loop between manager and driver.
-   **Improve:** Managers track driver progress over time, recognize improvement through gamification and measure fleet-wide behavior trends — all within the Video Coaching Dashboard in MyGeotab.
