OtoZen, a California-based company spearheading the market with its leading driving assistant app, is taking strides to expand its popular services to help drivers and their families. Founded by Krishna Kalidindi, a parent of teen drivers and a knowledgeable entrepreneur, OtoZen was born out of a need to do better.
After his daughter pointed out his distracted driving habits, the tech startup founder was committed to creating a solution that could improve safety in real time. Krishna took an unconventional approach, utilizing the very same technology that distracts and endangers drivers to mitigate it. His ingenuity paid off. OtoZen is proud to be a reliable platform for teen and adult drivers all over the US. The company is actively expanding its user base, connecting with more drivers and their families, and cultivating seamless driving experiences built for the modern age.
Technological advancements have unlocked heightened safety features but created a serious problem with safety on the road. Texting and driving, speeding, and other behaviors claim the lives of countless teen drivers annually in the United States. This tragic issue has encouraged the creation of multiple safe driving platforms offering parents and teen drivers insights on their commutes.
However, OtoZen is one of the only driving and family safety apps that provide proactive real-time alerts, improving safety when it matters rather than when it is too late. Many in the industry only share driving behavior data with users after teens have left the wheel, eliminating any opportunity for corrections en route. However, OtoZen recognizes the critical need to do things differently, reflected in its real-time comprehensive driving alerts, warnings, and safety feedback reports while creating long-term habits that will last a lifetime.
“OtoZen encourages new and experienced drivers to improve their driving habits with speeding alerts, texting while driving warnings, driving safety feedback, and many other features. On the other hand, each and every element within our app is built to give parents peace of mind through the knowledge that their loved ones are driving safely. It’s our team’s passion to take the stress out of driving for drivers and their families,” says Founder Krishna Kalidindi.
New drivers using OtoZen receive speeding alerts based on the road’s speed limits, texting while driving vibration buzzes, Drive Score Reports for each trip, and a Weekly Drive Score with in-depth feedback. They also have access to automatic crash detection and automated contact with emergency services when the driver is unable to seek help.
Parents and guardians on the OtoZen app can view their child’s live location, ETA, place notifications, and speed limit activity on-demand. They also have the option of sending short voice messages, and viewing trip reports and driving scores. These real-time insights keep parents in the loop without distracting their new driver on the road.
Parents, teen drivers, and other prospective users can protect themselves and their families in minutes by downloading the OtoZen app from Google Play or the iOS App Store. OtoZen is compatible with all cars and will deliver alerts via the vehicle’s speakers when Bluetooth, CarPlay, and Android Auto are enabled.
Users can enjoy a limited number of the app’s robust features with a free account, or upgrade to a premium subscription after a 14-day trial. OtoZen is constantly looking to expand its app’s value by integrating new features and data tracking.
The company is currently refining its location-sharing services to enhance pick-up and drop-off coordination along with general safety regarding their child’s whereabouts.
In the near future, Krishna aims to take OtoZen global, providing drivers and families worldwide with preventative safety features that keep their loved ones protected 24/7.Test OtoZen’s impressive features today by downloading it from the iOS App Store or Google Play.
