RDZN Roadzen Inc

Roadzen Inc. (Nasdaq: RDZN) ("Roadzen" or the "Company"), a global leader in AI at the convergence of insurance and mobility, today announced two major milestones: its proprietary, computer vision-powered Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) platform, DrivebuddyAI, has become the first-ever system to receive Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) certification under India’s Automotive Industry Standard 184 (AIS 184) and has crossed one billion kilometers of real-world driving data. These accomplishments establish DrivebuddyAI as a pioneer in real-world AI and road safety.

The AIS 184 standard, expected to be mandated for all 4 million commercial vehicles in India by FY 2026, defines stringent technical and procedural requirements for driver monitoring, drowsiness detection, and road safety compliance. Following months of extensive validation and road testing by ARAI, DrivebuddyAI emerged as the sole compliant, integrable, driver safety system for auto OEMs looking to adopt the standard.

Transforming Road Safety Through Computer Vision

Leveraging DrivebuddyAI’s custom neural networks built to analyze objects, road markings, traffic signs, driver behavior, and the behavior of other road users to make informed driving decisions, the system offers a comprehensive suite of real-time safety features, including:

• Distraction and drowsiness alerts
• Predictive collision warnings
• Driver behavior monitoring, such as seatbelt compliance, phone usage detection, and smoking alerts
• In-cabin analysis powered by 98-point driver eye-movement tracking
• Seamless 2-way communication for fleet optimization

In another milestone, DrivebuddyAI has surpassed one billion kilometers of real-world driving data, enabling continuous improvements in driver safety and monitoring while addressing critical needs for fleet operators, carmakers, and insurers. This data is also invaluable for training autonomous vehicle (AV) systems, offering insights across diverse road environments.

Rohan Malhotra, the Company’s founder and CEO, commented:"India, one of the fastest-growing economies globally, is undergoing massive infrastructure expansion, driving unprecedented demand for heavy commercial vehicles. With over 4 million trucks today projected to grow to 17 million by 2050, safety and compliance have become critical. We’re proud to be the first and only company to meet India’s rigorous AIS 184 requirements while achieving the extraordinary milestone of a billion kilometers of real-world driving data."

Mr. Malhotra added:"Imagine a network of connected vehicles functioning as a continuous mesh of camera sensors, capturing real-time data on road conditions, traffic flow, and driver behavior. This is the future of mobility, and we are powering it."

Nisarg Pandya, Head of DrivebuddyAI, emphasized:"Studies show that up to 50% of road accidents are caused by fatigue or distraction. With India set to mandate Driver Monitoring Systems (DMS) by 2026 and Europe, the U.S., and China following suit, DrivebuddyAI is positioned to lead the global shift toward AI-driven safety compliance. The global ADAS market, valued at $24.5 billion in 2023, is growing at 18.2% annually, with India outpacing at 18.8% to reach $9.98 billion by 2032. We are committed to capturing a significant share of this transformative market."
