1Step 1

A driver types their reg.

Every booking starts with the number plate. A live DVLA and MOT history lookup fills in the make, model and MOT expiry automatically.

No forms, no friction — and it works at 9pm on a Sunday, when your phone doesn’t.

  • Live DVLA lookup
  • Real MOT expiry shown
  • Books 24/7

MOT reminders go out automatically.

This is the retention engine. Before every customer’s MOT expires, they get a text from your garage.

Miss nobody. The work comes back to you, not the dealership down the road.

  • 30 / 14 / 7-day schedule, plus an overdue nudge
  • 100 texts a month included
  • Opt-out handled for you (PECR compliant)

The maths is simple

One extra MOT a month covers it.

The maximum UK MOT is £54.85. As a founding garage you pay £49.50/month — less than a single MOT — locked at that price for life. If our reminders bring back ONE customer per month, you've already broken even.

Automatic reminders are the single biggest reason customers come back instead of drifting to the dealership.
