Overview

DriveBook is a business management platform built specifically for ADI-registered driving instructors in the UK. It replaces spreadsheets, paper diaries, and fragmented tools with a single, purpose-built solution.

The Problem

Driving instructors run small businesses with complex scheduling, invoicing, and student management needs. The tools available today are either generic (and don't fit the driving instruction model) or outdated (no mobile-first design, no automation).

DriveBook is being built by engineers who understand the domain — from ADI licensing requirements to the way lessons are structured and invoiced.

Planned Features

Lesson Booking

A smart calendar that accounts for lesson duration, travel time, and student location. Students can request lessons; instructors confirm. Reminders are sent automatically.

Student Management

A complete profile for each student — progress notes, test history, licence details, and communication log. All in one place, accessible on any device.

Invoice Generation

Automated invoice creation from completed lessons. Instructors can send invoices by email, track payment status, and generate reports for tax purposes.

Payment Tracking

Integration with payment providers for online payment. Overdue invoices trigger automatic follow-up reminders.

Roadmap

Phase 1 (UK) — Core booking, student management, invoicing
Phase 2 (UK) — Payment integration, reporting, mobile app
Phase 3 (Australia) — Localisation for Australian licence frameworks

Where We Are

Core scheduling and pupil-management flows are built. Payments and reporting are in progress. Early access opens later this year. Contact us to register interest.
