Samsara (IOT) launched Agent Studio, a no-code platform for building AI agents for physical operations, now available to all customers. Adoption on Samsara’s platform has accelerated 7x since June as customers expand their use of agents beyond automated reporting. Agent Studio combines prebuilt agents with tools for creating custom chat and voice agents using operational data and company-specific guidance.
Voice agents surpassed chat in interaction volume within four weeks of launch and have led every week since.

The partnership also supports a raffle for first-row seats behind the player bench and a chance for one child per home game to ride an ice resurfacer between periods. Eligibility and entry details will be available on the Laval Rocket website.

Customers can also route complex questions to Samsara Assistant and combine Samsara data with HR, finance and procurement systems for cross-system analysis.
Samsara (IOT) launched Driver Perks, described as the first rewards program built specifically for professional drivers, available starting today in the U.S. The program is free for drivers and comes at no cost to participating fleets.
Millions of drivers using the Samsara network in segments such as long-haul trucking, passenger transit, and last‑mile delivery can access exclusive offers and discounts from more than 50 partner brands. Categories include food and beverage, wellness, fitness, travel, learning, and personal development, with examples such as Audible, BetterHelp, BetterSleep, Dickies, Liquid I.V., OLIPOP, Pit Boss Grills, MEATZY, and Truck Parking Club.
Driver Perks can be accessed through the Samsara Driver App, a direct web link, or a QR code provided by organizations.

Samsara (IOT) released its Compounding Risk Report based on a patent-pending Risk Model showing that the top 10% of risk-ranked drivers account for 47% of crashes.
The model evaluates about 50 factors across behavior, exposure, context and driver development, and is designed to rank drivers by relative risk so safety leaders can prioritize coaching. The research finds that risk concentrates among a small group of drivers and compounds when behaviors like mobile use, distraction and harsh braking appear together. These insights power Samsara’s AI-based Coaching Priority feature, which highlights where targeted coaching and self-coaching may most improve fleet safety.
