detectly: AI dashcam analysis tool generates driver safety scores from fleet footage
By
Kieran Wallace
Yesterday's bagel. Skim it, don't savour it.
Summary
detectly is a new AI-powered tool that analyzes dashcam footage from fleet vehicles to automatically detect dangerous driving incidents (following too close, cut-ins, pedestrian hazards) and generate driver risk scores. Built solo by Kieran and live for 3 weeks, it addresses the problem that fleet managers have dashcam footage but no time to review it manually. The tool works with any existing dashcam footage and provides annotated clips ready for review in minutes.
Key quotes
· 4 pulledThe thing that stuck with me when I started talking to fleet managers is that the first anyone hears about a problem driver is usually an accident.
The footage exists, but nobody has time to sit and watch hours of it on the off chance something bad happened.
Upload a clip and the AI automatically flags dangerous incidents: following too close, cut-ins, pedestrian hazards, and more.
No manual review. No new hardware. Works with any dashcam footage you already have.
