Donlen will begin offering the Nauto Coach video safety system to its fleet customers under a new partnership with the Silicon Valley telematics provider, the fleet management company has announced.

Nauto Coach is an A.I.-powered driver safety system that uses camera hardware installed behind the rearview mirror to send real-time alerts about risky driving behavior. The system uploads video snippets and event data to a cloud-based platform.

Donlen chose Nauto Coach because of its automation, real-time safety alerts, and actionable insights, according to the company.

"Our partnership with Nauto highlights Donlen's continuous commitment to the safety of fleet drivers," said Eli Rossiter, Donlen's director of safety and telematics products. "Nauto's intelligent driver safety system in conjunction with the Donlen Risk Center and DriverPoint Telematics now provides our customers the most robust distracted driving detection program with coaching opportunities."

Donlen, which is based in the Chicago suburb of Bannockburn, announced the agreement at the NAFA Institute and Expo in Louisville, Ky.
