Features
Driving instructor software, feature by feature
Passly gathers the tools a self-employed ADI actually needs into one place: your diary, your bookings, your pupils, your money and your marketing. Here's everything it does, and where to dig into each part.
One app for the whole of your week
Most instructors run their business across a diary, a notebook, a bank app and a pile of texts. Passly pulls the lot together, so a lesson booked online lands in the same diary you check between pupils, on the same record where you keep their notes and progress. Nothing is stranded in an app that doesn't talk to the rest.
Everything here is built for a self-employed UK ADI's real week: pupils texting at 9pm, diary Tetris, no-shows, chasing what you're owed and the constant hunt for the next learner. Pick a feature below to see how it works, or start free and put your whole week in one place.

Learn moreHow the pieces fit together
Each feature is useful on its own, but the point of one app is that they share the same information. Here is what that saves you day to day.
One set of working hours
Your diary and your booking page read the same availability, so pupils only ever grab slots you are genuinely free.
Bookings land on the pupil record
Every lesson attaches to a learner who already carries their history, notes and pricing. Nothing to copy across.
New pupils arrive in the same place
Marketplace enquiries and leads drop into the inbox next to the diary they will end up booking into.
