We design mobile applications and SDKs to describe and quantifie all forms of mobility in order to reduce the environmental impact while improving road safety.
Who we are?
We are a multidisciplinary team of researchers, mobile and backend developers, physicists and data scientists aligned on a common objective : to understand driving behaviours to improve road safety and reduce the environmental impact of mobility.
Our mission
Over the past decade, we have witnessed radical changes in our mobility such as vehicle electrification, the end of a single model of individual ownership, the emergence of shared and green mobility, and the rise of connectivity in all modes of transport.
That revolution affects the entire mobility ecosystem and pushes companies to adapt their business model to these new realities. The insurance industry is deeply impacted by these changes with growing needs for more connectivity and data to allow for greater precision, more prevention, and additional services. It results in new products such as “pay-as-you-go” offer that are ecological and economical.
To facilitate industry transformation, DriveQuant describes and quantifies all forms of mobility to reduce its environmental impact while improving road safety.
To reach our objective, we have developed a universal driving measurement solution based on mobile telematics. Our algorithms analyze real-time data collected by mobile sensors and calculate the environmental and safety impact of every trip.
That information is then transparently returned to drivers to make them aware of the quality of their driving and the scope for improvement. We firmly believe, and our results prove it, that a radical change is possible by empowering and coaching drivers to drive greener and reduce distraction behind the wheel.
