Safety experts and technology innovators convened on the future of fleet safety, operational excellence, and AI-powered solutions
SAN DIEGO, April 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Lytx® Inc., the industry pioneer of video and safety-driven efficiency, presented new products, features, and key insights at their annual Lytx Protect Conference. The invitation-only event underscored Lytx's 27-year commitment to innovation, safety leadership, and customer success by providing a vital forum for transportation leaders, safety experts, and technology innovators to collaborate on addressing critical fleet challenges in a dynamic market.
This year's theme, "Protecting a World in Motion: Your People, Your Equipment, and Your Reputation," guided two days of impactful sessions designed to help commercial fleets lead with safety, efficiency, and confidence.
2025 Lytx Protect attendees also received the industry's first look at Lytx+, a new video-powered, all-in-one fleet management solution that integrates best-in-class video safety with industry-leading telematics. The first Lytx+ offering (Lytx+ with Geotab) leverages the strength of both powerhouses to streamline operations, enhance safety, and drive meaningful cost savings for fleets. The recent announcement of Lytx+ can be viewed here.
Confirming how Lytx is protecting a world in motion, the company celebrated surpassing 300 billion miles of commercial driving data captured, or the equivalent of 1,600 round trips to the sun. This depth and scale of insight continues to power Lytx's advanced AI models and risk detection capabilities, helping fleets operate more safely and make smarter decisions every day.
"The Lytx Protect conference brings together the people and ideas shaping the future of fleet safety," said Dave Riordan, Executive Vice President of Strategic Accounts at Lytx. "As fleets navigate evolving safety challenges and workforce demands, our mission is to provide solutions that empower them to lead with confidence. 'Protecting a World in Motion,' this year's theme, reflects our belief that safety is core and should be without compromise when it comes to protecting people, equipment, and reputations."
"Lytx Protect is an extremely important event for us and today's fleet leaders," commented Shawn Mandel, Vice President of Safety and Risk Management, Waste Connections. "Our team arrived enthusiastic about the fresh ideas and meaningful connections that come from this event, and now we head back to our company energized by Lytx's product roadmap and with an improved vision on how to continue to drive measurable improvements."
