foodpanda introduces AI-Powered telematics technology to improve delivery riders’ safety

Karachi: foodpanda has introduced a new rider safety feature powered by advanced telematics technology in its rider mobile application. Developed in partnership with Sentiance, a global provider of behavioral analytics technology, the feature will help delivery riders better understand their driving habits, receive personalized safety insights, and improve their driving through actionable guidance. Sentiance’s Software Development Kit (SDK) has been integrated directly into poodpanda’s rider app. Using on-device edge computing, the technology processes raw data collected from smartphone motion sensors, including GPS, accelerometers, and gyroscopes, directly on the rider’s phone. Through a dedicated Safety Center within the app, riders can access analytical insights into their driving behavior. These include their personalized “Safe Trip Rate” and safety recommendations, designed to encourage cautious driving, reduce road risks, and improve the safety of the entire delivery fleet over the long term. Ahsan Malik, Director of Logistics at foodpanda Pakistan, said: “The physical safety and well-being of our delivery partners are among foodpanda’s top priorities. By integrating Sentiance’s behavioral analytics technology into our rider app, we are transforming everyday smartphones into proactive tools that help enhance safety.” News Desk
