Dashcams are almost useless for most fleets (and nobody talks about it)

Every fleet manager I've spoken to has dashcams on every vehicle. Almost none of them watch the footage.

Not because they don't care but because there's no realistic way to. If you have 10 drivers doing 8-hour shifts, that's 80 hours of footage a day. Nobody is sitting down and watching that looking for problems that may or may not be there.

So what actually happens? The footage sits on a server somewhere and only gets pulled when something has already gone wrong. An accident. A complaint. A legal claim. By that point it's too late. You're using it as evidence, not as prevention.

The dashcam industry has done a great job selling the hardware. Nobody has solved the software problem: automatically surfacing the moments that actually matter.

That's what I've been building with detectly. But I'm curious, for anyone here who manages a fleet or works in fleet safety, how are you actually handling this today? Is footage review something that happens at all, or does it only come out when there's an incident?
