#301 Hemant Banavar & Ryan Paulson: The AI Safety System Driving Toward Zero Harm

How are AI and telematics changing safety for fleets in the real world, and what does it take to get from basic recordings to true accident prevention?

In this episode of Eye on AI, host Craig Smith speaks with Hemant, Chief Product Officer at Motive, and Ryan, CIO at Fusion Site Services, to explore how AI powered cameras and telematics are transforming safety, productivity, and profitability across the physical economy, from trucking and construction to field services.

We look at what makes safety AI trustworthy at scale, how to reduce false alerts that drivers ignore, and how to combine in cab coaching, human review, and rich telematics data to drive down risky behaviors. Learn how Fusion Site Services cut unsafe events by more than ninety percent while tripling in size, slashed insurance claims and premiums, and used real time insights to tackle idling, under utilized assets, and the hidden costs of unsafe operations.

You will also hear how leading fleets run side by side vendor tests, design incentive programs that get drivers on board with cameras, and build a culture around zero preventable accidents. If you are responsible for safety, operations, or risk, this episode will show you how to evaluate AI and telematics platforms, which benchmarks to demand, and how to turn your data into safer roads and stronger unit economics.
