Safety managers today are drowning in data—dash cam footage, driver scores, speeding events, road hazards, and more. But data is just the starting point. Impact comes from turning that data into context-rich, actionable insights.
That’s why we’re introducing Samsara’s intelligent Safety Inbox and new AI-powered Insights—a smarter way to see risk, coach drivers, and recognize great performance.
With AI Summaries and Context Labels, Samsara doesn’t simply flag incidents—we help you understand why they happened, so you can coach more effectively, prioritize the right drivers, and build a culture that rewards safe driving.
With every event telling a story, context is what brings it all together.
The intelligent Safety Inbox is more than just a list of events—it’s a smarter, AI-driven workflow that helps you:
Coach patterns, not just incidents: Group events by trip or driver to see recurring behaviors like harsh braking or speeding, and separate one-offs from coaching trends.
Prioritize what matters: AI surfaces the most critical risks—like crashes, drowsiness, and dangerous speeding—so you can focus on the highest-impact coaching opportunities.
Recognize the good, not just the bad: Positive behaviors like defensive driving are flagged too, helping managers balance recognition and coaching for better engagement.
Instead of sifting through every alert, managers get a focused, intelligent view of what needs their attention first.
Samsara’s AI analyzes video footage, trip data, and driver behavior and delivers clear, actionable summaries. AI Insights in the Safety Inbox helps you understand:
When a driver is driving defensively: AI flags moments of defensive driving so you can differentiate between harsh driving and necessary actions– and celebrate drivers for defensive driving.
Dozens of behaviors and risks on the road: From fatigue and distractions to school zones, snow, and traffic light violations, AI Insights automatically flags dozens of road risks and behaviors to safety managers.
Patterns of behavior: By combining visual understanding with data from safety scores and driver trip histories, AI Insights helps you identify patterns of driver behavior so you can focus your time on highest-impact coaching.
AI Insights gives you the full picture—so you can coach smarter, celebrate more, and stay ahead of risk. Explore the Safety Inbox in action below.

“Drivers often make split-second decisions to stay safe, but those moments can be easy to miss. With AI Insights and the intelligent Safety Inbox, we’re giving managers a clearer view of what’s really happening on the road, including positive behaviors like defensive driving,” said Johan Land, Samsara's SVP of Product & Engineering. “Now, safety leaders can spend less time sorting through alerts and more time taking meaningful action—whether that’s coaching or recognizing great performance.”
With the intelligent Safety Inbox and AI Insights, Samsara is setting a new standard for modern fleet safety:
Understand full trip context at a glance
Prioritize high-risk behaviors and drivers
Balance coaching and recognition to drive engagement
Reduce time spent on low-priority events
