- Each year, more than 40,000 people in the U.S. leave home and never make it back due to traffic crashes. At , we believe these deaths are preventable. We deploy solar-powered, AI-assisted cameras to enforce traffic laws where pedestrians are most vulnerable—automating enforcement in ways that traditional systems cannot. Our approach has already led to a 50% reduction in reckless driving in early partner cities. Founded by the team behind Motive's AI dashcam and backed by Bain Capital Ventures and Khosla Ventures, we are building the intelligence layer for safer streets globally.

You will still spend time reviewing video and working directly in our annotation workflows, but your bigger responsibility is making sure the people around you are successful. That means answering questions, reviewing difficult cases, catching quality issues before they become patterns, helping new hires ramp quickly, and making sure the team understands how to apply guidelines consistently.
