Still managing your diary the old way?

Most instructors lose time and money to problems that are simple to fix.

Missed reminders

Students forget lessons because no one sent them a reminder.

Unpaid lessons

No easy way to see who owes money or by how much.

Manual rescheduling

Changing a lesson means texts back and forth for 20 minutes.

No-shows

Students don't attend, you're sat outside their house with no record.

Paper notes

Progress notes written in a physical notebook, not accessible anywhere.

No school overview

Running multiple instructors with no visibility across them.

Everything in one place

No more juggling between apps, spreadsheets, and a paper diary.

Booking calendar

A full booking calendar with month, week, and day views. Book a lesson in seconds. Drag to reschedule. No double bookings.

Student management

Full student profiles including licence details, theory test status, practical test dates, emergency contacts, and lesson history.

Automatic reminders

Confirmation emails sent when a lesson is booked. Reminders go out 24 hours and 2 hours before each lesson, automatically.

Payment tracking

Progress tracking
