Netradyne launched Fuel Scoring and Coaching, new capabilities that extend the company’s AI-powered recognition-based approach to fuel efficiency.
Building on Netradyne's scoring systems, the new Fuel application ranks driver and group performance using idling, MPG, drive time, and behavior data. Drivers can see how they rank against peers, understand which behaviors impact fuel usage, and earn recognition for improvement through performance-based rewards.
"We're applying the same context-rich benchmarks and recognition-based philosophy that transformed fleet safety to fuel efficiency," says Avneesh Agrawal, CEO and co-founder of Netradyne. "When drivers understand their performance, compare against peers, and get rewarded for improvement, behavior changes."
Key takeaways:
· Fleet managers gain visibility into fuel performance by driver and vehicle through a unified dashboard. Automated detection of fuel-wasting behaviors provides video context, while insights like each driver’s MPG, idling time, vehicle type, terrain, and city vs. highway driving give managers the full picture. This additional context enables fair assessments and personalized coaching, empowering managers to address root causes and drive measurable improvement.
"Positive reinforcement, not just correction, is what makes behavior change stick," says Pramod Akkarachittor, chief product officer of Netradyne. "When drivers get credit for doing things right, those habits sustain over time. When full-context video insights across safety and fuel efficiency lead to targeted coaching, the impact compounds across risk reduction and measurable savings."
