SPOTTER

SPOTTER is an AIoT-powered road intelligence solution developed by Acumen Software, designed to help cities and organizations manage road infrastructure more efficiently and proactively. By combining artificial intelligence with Internet of Things technology, SPOTTER transforms ordinary fleet vehicles into mobile road-monitoring units, enabling continuous, automated detection of potholes and road surface defects without the need for dedicated inspection teams. The SPOTTER device is compact and versatile, allowing it to be easily installed on almost any vehicle. As equipped vehicles move through cities during normal operations, the system quietly analyzes road conditions in real time, logging defects, prioritizing maintenance needs, and triggering workflows within existing asset and work management systems. This seamless integration enables councils to move from reactive repairs to data-driven, predictive maintenance, significantly reducing costs and extending the lifespan of road assets. One of SPOTTER’s strongest advantages is its scalability. Beyond municipal and highway maintenance departments, the solution can be deployed across logistics fleets, utilities, and other organizations with vehicles already navigating urban environments.
