At Geotab Connect 2026 in Las Vegas, Chris Brown of Automotive Fleet sat down with industry veteran Rob Minton, retired from Geotab and founder of Revved Up Strategies, to break down the most important fleet technology trends emerging from the conference.
Minton highlights how artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming fleet management, not just at the enterprise level, but also by making advanced analytics accessible to everyday fleet managers. He also discusses how real-time OEM data, AI-powered dashcams, and predictive maintenance are moving fleets beyond static dashboards toward dynamic, action-oriented operations.
The conversation centers on how fleets can use these innovations to improve safety, reduce unnecessary maintenance costs, and make faster, smarter decisions.
🧭 Key Takeaways Include:
• The “democratization of AI” and what it means for fleet managers
• Moving from static dashboards to living, real-time data environments
• AI-powered safety tools embedded in dash cameras
• The growing importance of near-real-time OEM data and data parity
• Why predictive maintenance may finally be ready for prime time
• How fleets can reduce overspending by shifting from preventive to predictive strategies
