California-based DPL Telematics, a provider of asset monitoring and telemetry technologies, has launched a smart dashcam that combines real-time video monitoring, GPS tracking and AI.

The ClearView smart dashcam was built to meet the escalating demands of modern fleet management. It delivers high-definition visibility and insights that go beyond simple video capture. With AI-powered driver assistance and intelligent alerting, it helps fleets reduce risk, coach drivers proactively, prevent fraud and streamline insurance processes.

“With the rapidly growing number of questionable claims, fleets, especially SMBs, are increasingly vulnerable to sophisticated fraud schemes,” said Tony Nicoletti, CEO of DPL Telematics. “Our AI powered ClearView smart dashcam empowers businesses to fight back with technology that captures the truth and protects their drivers.”

More than just a dashcam, it functions as a fleet’s digital co-pilot, combining real-time AI driver assistance, GPS tracking and high-definition video evidence into one device. Built to address the growing threats of staged accidents and fraudulent insurance claims, this technology delivers crystal-clear video proof, helping companies avoid costly disputes and build a culture of safety and accountability.

Seamlessly integrated into the DPL telematics platform, the dashcam appears alongside the full suite of tracking devices, providing fleet managers with unified, real-time visibility and control from a single, centralised interface.
