Cortex AI — the intelligence layer

AI driver coaching that actually changes behaviour.

Most telematics platforms give you charts and expect you to do the coaching. Tracking Guardian's Cortex AI does the analysis for you — every Monday, every driver gets a personalised, plain-English coaching report, and every manager gets a fleet summary that says what to act on.

How it works

From raw driving data to a Monday-morning conversation.

Cortex AI analyses the previous week's driving data — harsh braking, speeding against real road limits, acceleration, cornering, idling and mileage — and turns it into something a human being can act on. No spreadsheets, no manual analysis, no jargon.

  • Plain-English reports — no data dumps. Coaching summaries any driver can understand and act on immediately.
  • Week-on-week trends — improving and deteriorating patterns identified per driver, before they become incidents or insurance claims.
  • Predictive maintenance — harsh braking patterns correlated with service history to predict brake wear weeks ahead.
Cortex AI — weekly driver coaching · M. Evans

"Your harsh braking events increased 38% this week, mostly on the A48 between 08:00–09:30. This suggests time pressure on morning runs — consider leaving the depot 10 minutes earlier to reduce risk."

Fleet manager summary — Monday

"Fleet risk score improved from 79 to 84 this week. Most improved: S. Thomas (+11 pts). Requires attention: R. Jones — 4 speeding events on the M4."

Fair scoring

Scoring drivers can trust.

⚖️

Normalised by mileage

A driver doing 1,200 miles a week isn't punished against one doing 200. Scores are normalised so the league table is fair — and drivers buy into it.

🚦

Real road limits

Speeding is measured against the actual limit of the road driven, not a blanket threshold. Drivers aren't penalised for legal motorway speeds.

🪪

Per-driver accuracy

Automatic driver ID fobs mean scores follow the driver, not the vehicle — accurate even in shared vans and pool vehicles.

🏆

Weekly leaderboard

A weekly league table on harsh braking, speeding, acceleration and cornering. Recognition for the best drivers, gentle pressure for the rest.

📉

Fewer incidents

Coached drivers brake earlier, speed less and idle less — which shows up in fuel bills, wear and tear, and insurance claims.

🔒

Your data stays yours

Cortex AI runs on Engineer M8's own infrastructure. Your fleet's driving data isn't shipped to third-party AI providers.

FAQ

AI coaching, answered.

Is AI coaching included in the price?
Yes — Cortex AI driver coaching is included in every Tracking Guardian plan at £14.95 per vehicle per month. It's not a premium tier or an add-on.
How do drivers receive their coaching reports?
Reports are generated every Monday and delivered through the portal and by email. Managers receive a fleet-level summary highlighting who improved, who needs attention, and what to act on.
Does the AI replace the fleet manager?
No — it replaces the hours a fleet manager spends staring at charts. Cortex AI does the analysis and writes the summary; your managers spend their time on the conversations that actually change behaviour.
