Our DriveSync Platform

Telematics is just the beginning.

Every business and program is different – which is why an effective solution must be sensor-agnostic and based on an adaptable, modular platform. The IMS DriveSync® platform can ingest data from connected vehicles, smartphones and aftermarket telematics devices, offering our customers flexibility and a seamless transition as vehicle manufacturers accelerate their journey to connectivity.

Ensuring all our customers benefit from technology developments, our single platform underpins the entirety of our offering across personal and commercial usage-based insurance, driver risk management, distracted driving detection, asset management, claims services, vehicle prognostics and dynamic road usage charging.

Unique Insights

There’s no substitute for experience.

Carrot Insurance, a sister company to IMS within Trak Global Group, is a real-life test-bed for IMS technologies, and an invaluable source of shared learnings for our customers. Under the Carrot brand, we’ve been running award-winning, direct-to-consumer UBI programs in the UK since 2012, pioneering the use of rewards and developing one of the world’s first smartphone-based telematics insurance propositions along the way.

The platform on which Carrot is built is also available to insurers as an end-to-end white-label solution for hardware or smartphone-based UBI programs, offering speed to market and a proven operating model. Alternatively, the configurable components that underpin Carrot can be delivered to all customers by IMS on a modular basis, from risk-predictive driver scoring algorithms to driver distraction monitoring and a stand-alone reward & engagement solution that is proven to increase customer retention and reduce collision frequency.
