Getting started with DrivoPilot takes about an hour. Create your account, add your school details, set your availability, then switch on online booking and payments and publish your website. You can be taking bookings the same day, with no tech skills needed.

How to set up your driving school software

  • Create your account and add your school name, logo and details.
  • Set your availability, with travel time built in, to power your diary and online booking.
  • Turn on card payments and lesson credit blocks so pupils can pay as they book.
  • Pick a starter layout, check your prices and instructor details, and publish your branded website on your own domain.

Once you are live, new enquiries arrive as leads you approve before they reach your diary, and you can track each pupil against the DVSA syllabus in pupil progress. Want the bigger picture first? Read how DrivoPilot works, or see pricing and start your free trial.
