About

Why this site exists

Every dashcam review site I found had the same problem — they were written for European or American roads, tested in controlled environments, and published by people who'd never driven on NH48 at midnight or navigated Pune's monsoon season.

When I was researching dashcams for my own car, I kept running into spec sheets dressed up as reviews. Resolution numbers. Sensor names. Marketing copy reworded. Nothing that told me whether the mount would survive a Mumbai summer, whether the app actually worked on an Android phone, or whether the night vision held up on an unlit highway.

So I built DashcamScore.

How it works

Instead of buying and testing every dashcam myself — which would take years and cost a fortune — I built a process that does something more powerful: it aggregates the real-world experience of dozens of reviewers who have already done that testing.

For each dashcam, we analyse 10–20 YouTube reviews, extract what reviewers say about each performance attribute, and produce a score built from that aggregated evidence. Fifteen reviewers independently noting the same app connectivity issue is a stronger signal than any single lab test.

Night vision carries the highest weight because that is where dashcams matter most on real roads. Every score page shows exactly how many reviews were analysed, which channels contributed, and when the analysis was last run. Nothing is hidden.

Who I am

My name is Rajiv Godhwani. I'm based in Pune and I built the systematic process that powers this site — analysing hundreds of video reviews at scale and producing evidence-backed scores — because I thought the problem was worth solving properly.

I drive on Indian roads every day. I built this to serve the audience who actually needs honest dashcam data — and those insights turn out to be relevant everywhere.

What we won't do

We will not accept payment to improve a dashcam's score. We will not bury negative findings because a brand has an affiliate relationship with us. We will not publish scores without showing you the evidence behind them.

If a dashcam has a persistent app problem that fifteen reviewers have flagged, we will say so clearly — even if that dashcam generates affiliate revenue for us.
