Making the Switch to Lytx+ with Geotab
As you consider Lytx+™ with Geotab as your video-powered, all-in-one fleet management solution, you could ask some key questions and find out how Lytx+ with Geotab delivers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Lytx+ with Geotab replaces your current fleet solutions with one designed to support your safety, efficiency, and compliance goals in one unified platform. This is a true all-in-one solution that consolidates, simplifies, scales and evolves with your fleet’s needs.
Lytx+ with Geotab can replace:
- Standalone GPS tracking and telematics devices
- Standalone dash cam systems – Lytx+ with Geotab integrates video with telematics
- Dedicated ELD devices or apps
- Dedicated DVIR inspection tools
- Third-party IFTA or fuel tracking tools
- Third-party routing and dispatch software
- Separate GPS tracking platforms
- Maintenance scheduling systems
and consolidates driver safety programs with video telematics.
Lytx+ with Geotab enables access to one comprehensive data platform, providing actionable data that allows you to level-set and track your most important KPIs.
Insights include but are not limited to:
- Fleet utilization and efficiency – Access data on vehicle utilization rates, route efficiency, and productivity. Managers can see how each vehicle is used—e.g. miles driven, hours in operation versus idle time—to spot underused assets or inefficiencies in routes. The integrated route optimization data shows actual vs. planned route performance, idle time at job sites, and other route efficiency indicators.
- Fuel consumption and cost analytics – Lytx+ with Geotab provides granular fuel usage data, including MPG, idling fuel burn, and fuel cost per trip or per mile. Fuel reports combine telematics engine data with fuel transaction information (via fuel card integration, available Q3 2025) to highlight fuel efficiency issues, i.e. identifying trucks with excessive idling or drivers with aggressive acceleration that lowers MPG rate.
- Maintenance and vehicle health – The unified platform can pull diagnostic trouble codes, engine hours, temperatures, battery voltage, and other sensor data from the Geotab GO device in each vehicle. Fleet managers receive alerts and reports on maintenance-related metrics. By analyzing these trends, Lytx+ with Geotab enables predictive maintenance so you can address issues before they cause breakdowns. Patterns, such as which vehicles incur the highest maintenance costs, can help inform decisions on vehicle replacement or enhanced maintenance intervals. Reducing unexpected breakdowns improves uptime and lowers overall maintenance spend.
- Compliance and operational metrics – Because Lytx+ with Geotab captures compliance data digitally, it can turn those into insightful metrics. Managers can review hours of service (HOS) logs and driver availability, monitor compliance rates, and identify any recurring HOS violations by day or by driver (useful for training or staffing adjustments.
The system also tracks DVIR compliance, supplying data on percentage of inspections passed vs. failed, and average time spent on inspections (a new metric Lytx introduced to detect rushed inspections). Additionally, Lytx+ with Geotab can report on fleet emissions by combining fuel usage with vehicle specifications, helping organizations measure progress toward sustainability targets.
Lytx+ with Geotab is built for broad compatibility with a marketplace ecosystem that enables flexibility for APIs and data conductor integration with your other enterprise investments. An open data ecosystem allows you to tailor the solution to fit your specific needs. Nearly 50 third-party integrations add flexibility and support a greater return on your existing investments.
Here are just some of the categories of tech-stack components that can be integrated with Lytx+ with Geotab:
- Routing & dispatch systems
