Since launching on ProductHunt we've been doing a lot of thinking. Conversations with fleet managers, feedback from this community, and honest reflection on what detectly actually is versus how we were describing it.
We got the framing wrong.
detectly isn't another fleet safety tool. It's the layer that sits between dashcam footage and action. The dashcams are already there. The footage already exists. The gap was never hardware, it was the missing layer between footage and insight.
That's what we're building. The AI safety layer for fleets.
#69 out of 1300+ launched the same day, which happened to be a Vercel Ventures sponsored day. Traffic was the best detectly's had so far, 100+ unique visits in 24 hours.
Honestly the conversations were the highlight. Had some genuinely good back and forth with other founders and a couple of people who really know fleet safety and insurance, asking sharp questions about driver coaching and the reactive vs proactive gap. That's shaping the roadmap more than any ranking will.
If you upvoted, commented, or just had a look, I appreciate it. Still time to check it out if you haven't.
Also follow the LinkedIn page if you want the regular updates on how this is going, that's where most of the build in public stuff lives.
