YAS
YAS turns live driving and machine data into risk scores for fleet safety and insurer pricing support. Its AURA system combines roughly 100 risk factors into an explainable score and identifies behaviors that changed it. The ODD Engine adds road, weather, speed and operating-condition context before scoring. Fleet views include live machine tracking, risk dashboards, predictive claim risk, driver scoring and ranked driver tables. Data can arrive through certified telematics connectors, edge-capture SDKs or custom feeds. YAS provides iOS and Android SDKs that capture motion and GPS at the edge, batch records locally and sync securely. A read-only REST Events API exposes scored trips, routes, vehicles and factor-level AURA details. Production controls include encryption in transit and at rest, role-scoped access and audit trails. Inputs, scores and recommendations are logged and time-stamped, with a qualified person making the final decision. Licensed insurers retain pricing and underwriting authority. YAS works with licensed insurer partners across APAC, subject to carrier programmes. Pricing is on request.
