Velocitor Solutions: The software company with a spare-parts habit
A fleet platform is only as useful as the devices that survive the working day. Velocitor pairs tracking, cameras, and mobile software with the people who install, support, and replace the hardware - and its owners have added a routing specialist to the mix.
The Camera That Refused to Be a Phone
LightMetrics learned that a clever driver-safety app was no match for a trucker who would not surrender a phone. Its answer became a camera-flexible software business that lets telematics companies sell safer driving under their own names.
The Little Camera That Wanted to Change the Price of Risk
CARVI began with a puck-sized windshield coach and a $299 promise: give an ordinary car some of the judgment of a new one. The more interesting business emerged behind the warning beep - a record of why risk happened, built for fleets and insurers.

GreenRoad Put a Traffic Light in the Cab - Then Turned Safer Driving Into a Score
The fleet-tech veteran built its business on a stubborn idea: the useful moment is not after a harsh turn appears in a dashboard. It is while the driver can still correct it.
The Dash Cam That Learned to Coach: How Lytx Turned 311 Billion Miles Into a Fleet-Safety Business
A brick through a windshield inspired a crash recorder. Twenty-eight years later, Lytx is selling fleets something more ambitious: a system designed to spot risk, coach drivers and make the next collision less likely.

After more than a decade at Qualcomm, where he led 4G LTE research, ran corporate R&D, and served as president of Qualcomm India and South Asia, he left in 2015 to chase a convergence he saw coming: cheap camera sensors, edge computing, and deep learning arriving at the same moment. Netradyne's Driver-i platform now analyzes billions of miles of driving and reduces accidents by 30 to 50 percent. In January 2025, a $90 million Series D led by Point72 pushed the company past a $1 billion valuation. A Stanford PhD with more than 150 US patents, Agrawal builds at the intersection of research and the real world.
