Fleet video technology has moved far beyond simple dash cameras. Today’s solutions are expected to improve safety, support drivers, protect privacy, and integrate seamlessly with broader fleet operations. Geotab’s latest updates to GO Focus Plus reflect that shift, introducing new AI-powered features, expanded hardware options, and flexible bundle plans designed to make advanced video telematics easier to deploy and manage.
At EnVue Telematics, we work closely with fleets to evaluate, implement, and support Geotab video solutions. Below is a breakdown of what’s new with GO Focus Plus — and why these updates matter for fleet managers.
What Is Geotab GO Focus Plus?
GO Focus Plus is Geotab’s AI-enabled video telematics platform designed to help fleets improve driver safety, reduce risk, and gain better visibility into on-road events. The system combines road-facing and in-cab camera options with intelligent event detection, video access through the Geotab ecosystem, and tools that support proactive driver coaching.
Recent updates expand the platform’s capabilities, giving fleets greater control over data, privacy, and hardware configuration.
New GO Focus Plus AI and Video Features
Customizable Video Data Retention
Fleets can now define separate data retention periods for camera storage and cloud storage. This allows organizations to meet internal policies or regulatory requirements while still maintaining access to important event footage when it matters most.
For fleets operating across multiple regions, this added flexibility helps simplify compliance without sacrificing visibility.
Privacy Mode Blurring for Drivers and Road-Facing Video
Privacy continues to be a key consideration when deploying video telematics. GO Focus Plus now supports automatic blurring of faces and license plates on both in-cab and road-facing cameras.
This enhancement helps fleets:
- Build driver trust
- Meet regional privacy regulations
- Maintain usable video data without overexposing personal information
Smart Rules Escalation for More Effective Coaching
Not every event needs the same response. With Smart Rules Escalation, fleets can distinguish between minor, one-off incidents and repeated patterns of risky behavior.
This allows safety teams to:
- Focus coaching efforts where they’re most needed
- Reduce noise from low-value alerts
- Encourage drivers to self-correct before formal intervention
The result is a more efficient and fair driver safety program.
Winter Mode for Battery Protection
Cold weather and long periods of inactivity can strain vehicle batteries. GO Focus Plus now includes a Deep Sleep winter mode that significantly reduces camera power consumption after extended idle periods.
If the vehicle remains parked for 72 hours, power usage drops by roughly 90%, with the system automatically waking when movement is detected. This is especially valuable for fleets operating in colder climates or with seasonal equipment.
SD Card Tampering Detection
To improve data integrity and security, GO Focus Plus now monitors SD card presence. If a card is removed while the device is powered, a tampering event is recorded.
This provides fleets with greater visibility into potential data interference and strengthens the reliability of video records used for safety reviews and incident investigations.
Expanded GO Focus Plus Hardware Options
GO Focus Plus Road-Only Camera
For fleets that want road visibility without in-cab monitoring, Geotab now offers a Road-Only GO Focus Plus option. This version provides the same core platform features while eliminating the driver-facing camera, supporting enhanced privacy policies.
It’s a strong fit for fleets that prioritize external incident documentation and driver comfort.
Auxiliary Rear Cameras
GO Focus Plus now supports auxiliary rear cameras, available in standard and rugged IP69K-rated versions. These cameras improve rear-vehicle visibility and help reduce:
- Backing incidents
- Blind-spot collisions
- Property damage claims
Auxiliary cameras are particularly useful for delivery fleets, utility vehicles, and larger commercial vehicles.
GO Focus Plus Bundle Plans: Lower Upfront Costs
To reduce barriers to adoption, Geotab now offers GO Focus Plus bundle plans that eliminate upfront hardware costs.
How the Bundle Program Works
With bundled pricing:
- Camera hardware costs are included in the monthly subscription
