OCTO Revolutionizes Vehicle Safety with AI: Introducing the Proactive and Predictive Anti-Theft System10.12.2025 10:00:00 CET | Press release
Anticipating a theft before it happens. This is the goal of OCTO’s new predictive anti-theft system, developed by the global leader in telematics and data analytics solutions for connected mobility.
