COLUMBIA, Md. (PRWEB)

GasBuddy users are highly interested in saving on fuel and optimizing their fuel economy. With Vyncs, they can now better understand how their vehicles are being driven and how their vehicle’s health issues are impacting their fuel economy, all while earning GasBack. Commercial fleet owners will be able to keep track of their vehicles’ whereabouts, reduce driving risk, and optimize the fuel performance of their fleet. This saves money and keeps the world cleaner.

“Vyncs provides a unique and affordable solution that is going to offer the GasBuddy users a powerful tool to optimize and correlate fuel economy and emission footprint in addition to improving their vehicle’s safety and security”, said Dr. Hillol Kargupta, President of Agnik. “It is a pleasure to see that this best-selling connected car product is now available at the finger-tips of GasBuddy’s users.”

GasBuddy’s GasBack program launched earlier this year supported by the proven psychology that consumers have a high affinity for free gas, opening opportunities for brands to work with GasBuddy as part of their acquisition strategy.

“Our GasBack partners see great returns because free gas is such a desirable commodity for consumers,” said Mark Coffey, Executive Vice President of Strategic Partnerships, GasBuddy. “We’re excited to provide our users with another way to earn free gas by introducing innovative solutions from Vyncs.”

Vyncs comes with a tiny computer that plugs into the OBD-II port of light and medium duty cars, analyzes data onboard the vehicle, and sends the results of the analysis to the cloud in real-time over the wireless network. Among other things, Vyncs offers a wide range of location-based services, vehicle health alerts, driver safety notifications, and fuel analytics services.

Vyncs is powered by Agnik’s patented deep distributed learning technology for connected cars that computes predictive models onboard the vehicle and aggregates those over time across multiple vehicles in the high throughput data stream analytics engine it runs in the cloud. For example, the Vyncs device learns models for various vehicle subsystems including fuel subsystem, correlates them with driver behavior, and offers users personalized tips for improving fuel economy.
