VideoProtects

What VideoProtects does

VideoProtects is a U.S.-based vendor of AI-powered dash camera systems for commercial fleet safety, operating as a product brand of J. J. Keller & Associates — a family-owned compliance firm founded in 1953. The product combines road-facing and driver-facing cameras with computer-vision-based risk detection (distracted driving, tailgating, speeding, and similar behaviors), in-cab audible ADAS warnings, and configurable event scoring to surface risky-driving events for fleet managers and safety officers.

The hardware lineup includes road-facing and dual-facing dash cameras, plus a Side Camera Kit and an External Cargo Cam that broaden coverage beyond the front of the vehicle. The platform also includes a Video Review Service (a managed-service add-on for outsourced event triage), a Corrective Action Training module backed by roughly 100 training titles in Spanish and English, and a Court Reporter Event File Manager that packages video evidence for litigation and claims defense. Native integrations with Geotab's MyGeotab fleet management platform and the parent company's Encompass compliance platform embed VideoProtects into existing fleet telematics and regulatory workflows.

The business model is a subscription with bundled hardware (including a free-hardware promotional offer tied to a 60-day free trial), sold direct and through Geotab's reseller channel, with a U.S.-based technical support team of 80+ associates. The company holds ISO 27001:2022, PCI DSS, and SOC 2 certifications, with encrypted video storage, and targets commercial fleet operators in North America. The only publicly named customer reference is Enviro-Eze, indicating the company is still in an early customer-logo-building phase.
