Bitepoint answers booking enquiries, qualifies leads, logs official DVSA progress in seconds, and sends weekly reports to parents automatically — all while you're on the road. No app downloads required, for you or your students.
A normal Tuesday
Here's what the same three hours look like, week after week — without Bitepoint.
Both hands are on a learner's steering wheel. A parent asks about block bookings. By the time the lesson ends, she's already messaged two other instructors — and booked one of them.
Three parents want to know if their kid is test-ready. Two invoices are unpaid. One pupil's slot needs moving twice before anyone agrees on a time. You open your notes app for the fourth time this week.
Half the parents never finish installing it. The other half message you weeks later asking for their password back — so you end up sending the update manually anyway, just like you always did.
The engine
Each one handles a job you're currently doing by hand. Set them once. They run while you drive.
Module A · Inbound lead handling
The WhatsApp bot intercepts incoming leads instantly. It checks their postcode against your coverage area, qualifies gearbox preference and theory pass status, and guides them straight into your open calendar — no manual effort required.
of inbound leads convert when answered within 60 seconds. Bitepoint replies in under one.
Module B · DVSA progress grid
No typing. A tap-to-grade matrix maps all 27 official DVSA skills across the 5 training stages. Update a student's progress rating the moment a lesson ends — the whole log takes 10 seconds.
Module C · Automated weekly reports
Every Sunday evening, Bitepoint compiles the week's lesson logs and sends an easy-to-read progress update directly to students and their parents — including a live test-readiness percentage score.
Modules D · E · F
When a slot opens up last-minute, blast a WhatsApp alert to your waiting list with a 1-click booking link. First to tap, first to claim — no phone calls, no back-and-forth.
10-hour block payments are stored as digital credits in a dual-layer ledger. Students rebook future lessons for £0 via WhatsApp — and double-charging becomes structurally impossible.
Drop your Total Drive or Midrive CSV export and Bitepoint instantly migrates your entire active roster, addresses, and pre-paid hour balances. No manual re-entry.
