The app aims to reduce accidents and road damages. It will be primarily dedicated to the safety and well-being of commercial vehicle drivers and will be available to others for free as well.
Indias only dedicated app for the highly marginalized trucker community, the Hum Safer Driver Safety will have an incentive-based program, as well as provide end-to-end solutions to bring down instances of road accidents to zero.
It will do this by addressing three points of the logistics industry - Tiredness, Bad Driving, and Lack of emergency services. The developers of the app believe that these are the factors that round up for 80% of the reason why the accidents take place.

The Hum Safer App also has a built-in AI that detects sleep. In case of drowsiness, or eyelid shut detected, the app will gently alert the driver and encourage to take a rest stop as soon as possible.

This will be provided in the form of incentives, and rewards, aside from regular features like roadside assistance, insurance to truckers, emergency services, and keeping in touch with loved ones. The features in specific are:
1. Alerts that gently nudge drivers on their safety and good driving behavior
