AI forklift safety that sees it happen

A OneTrack sensor rides on every lift. Iris-1, our world model, catches collisions, near misses, phone use and dismounts, and every event comes with the video.

Telematics tells you something happened. OneTrack shows you what happened and why.

Forklift telematics records an impact's g-force, speed and hours. It can't see what was hit, who was involved or what led to it. OneTrack's cameras and Iris-1 can.

Forklift telematics

A spike, a time and a truck number.

Impacts

A g-force reading, with no context on what was hit or why.

Video of what was hit, and what the operator did before it.

False alarms

Potholes, dock plates and debris trigger the same alert as a real impact.

Sees whether it hit something or rolled over a crack in the floor.

Behaviour

Sensors can't observe it.

Phone use, not looking where it travels, seatbelts and PPE.

Near misses

No impact, no reading.

Close calls with pedestrians, racking and other equipment.

Investigations

A timestamp and a number. Witness statements fill the gap.

Video of the seconds before and after every event.

Among AI models, Iris-1 sees best

It accurately describes 90% of real forklift collisions, while still detecting almost all of them. General-purpose models answer “no collision” to almost every clip. Iris-1 learned the floor from one of the largest data sets of real-world operational data, hand-curated, selected, anonymized and cleaned.

“Yes, the lift hit another forklift.”

“Yes, the lift hit another forklift and hit product or a load.”

Another lift bumps the stationary stand-up truck.

Then the right person sees it, with the video

Serious events go to the safety lead. Coaching moments go to the operator's supervisor. Each one arrives by email, Teams or text, clip attached.

“Before OneTrack, it was difficult to truly know why incidents would occur, and our supervisors weren't able to have the quality of coaching conversations that we can now, because they didn't have video proof to back them up.”

What clients see on the floor

Common questions

Is this surveillance? Will operators feel like Big Brother is watching?

No. OneTrack is a coaching tool, not a monitoring system. There is no facial recognition or biometrics, and operators sign in with a QR code. It surfaces the moments worth coaching instead of hours of footage, and operators tend to value the fairness that video brings.

How is this different from our existing forklift telematics?

Telematics measures g-force, not what happened. A hard brake to avoid a pedestrian looks the same as reckless driving. OneTrack sees the event itself and sends the video with it, so you get fewer false alarms and alerts worth your time.

How long does installation take?

About 30 minutes per forklift, with no IT project. The sensors have built-in connectivity, and most sites go live within a week of receiving equipment.

Can OneTrack work in union environments?

Yes. OneTrack runs in union environments at several clients. It works best positioned as a safety and coaching tool: the video has cleared operators of unfair blame and shown process problems that were not any one person's fault.
