Private Hire

Private Hire Fleet Compliance Made Simple

A private hire car carries a licence your council issues, an MOT, road tax, insurance and a service schedule, and any one of them lapsing takes it off the road. Autodue tracks all of them per car and tells you before they go.

Built For Licensed Fleets

The dates that keep a car earning, in one place per vehicle.

Plate Licence Renewals

The licence number, the council that issued it, the renew-by date and the expiry date, per car, with reminders before it lapses.

Checks On Cars

Switch daily walkaround checks on per car. Drivers complete them on their own phone, with photos, and offline when there is no signal. A car with checks on uses a fleet-vehicle slot, like a van.

One Report To Hand Over

A per-vehicle PDF with the licence, MOT and tax status, the last check and any open defects, verifiable online by QR code.

Drivers, Not Admin

Assign a car to a driver and they see only theirs. Owners and managers see the whole fleet, on the phone or the web dashboard.

What It Costs

Licence records, MOT, tax, insurance, servicing and defects are free on your cars: the free plan covers up to 5 of them, and Pro at £5.99 a month covers up to 25.

Daily walkaround checks are counted separately. A car with checks switched on uses a fleet-vehicle slot, exactly like a van: the free plan includes 1, Pro includes 2, and the larger plans add more.

No contract, no minimum term, no hardware to buy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Each car holds its own private hire licence record with the licence number and the council that issued it, a renew-by date and an expiry date. Autodue reminds you 60, 30, 14 and 7 days before, and you can change that schedule in your reminder settings. The licence sits alongside that car's MOT, tax, insurance and service dates, so one screen covers everything that can take the car off the road.
It does, once daily checks are switched on for that car: the compliance report is built around the walkaround, so it is available for any vehicle that runs one. It then lists the licence with its number, the issuing authority, both dates and its current status, next to the MOT and tax status and the last walkaround check. Anyone you hand it to can scan the QR code and see the same record online, so a licensing officer or an insurer is not taking your word for it.
Yes. Daily walkaround checks are off by default on cars and you switch them on per vehicle. Drivers complete the check on their own phone, with photos, and it works with no signal and syncs when they reconnect. Anything they fail becomes a defect with an audit trail from reported to resolved.
Not yet. Autodue tracks what belongs to the vehicle: the private hire vehicle licence, MOT, tax, insurance, services and daily checks. A driver badge belongs to the person, and the operator licence Autodue stores is a DVSA O-licence for HGV operators, not a council private hire operator licence. Neither of those is tracked for private hire today.
Two different things are counted, so it is worth being precise. Licence records, MOT, tax, insurance, service and defect tracking are free on your cars: the free plan covers up to 5 of them, and Pro at £5.99 a month covers up to 25. Daily walkaround checks are counted separately, because a car with checks switched on uses a fleet-vehicle slot exactly like a van: the free plan includes 1, and Pro includes 2. Larger plans add more slots, and the pricing page lists them. No contract and no minimum term.
No. No trackers, no dashcams, no OBD dongles. Autodue runs on the phones your drivers already carry, and you can manage the fleet from the web dashboard on any browser.
