directio
What it is
Directio is a web platform for driving-school businesses that combines classroom teaching, scheduling, payments, paperwork, state credentials, and a marketing website. Its classroom supports editable lessons, quizzes, video, PDFs, images, and AI-assisted curriculum import. Scheduling offers parent self-service booking, instructor and vehicle conflict checks, lesson series, and automatic email reminders. A family portal lets people follow progress, book or cancel lessons, sign waivers, record supervised drives, and download completion certificates. Stripe handles tuition, including one-time, installment, and buy-now-pay-later choices such as Klarna or Affirm. Schools can export payroll-ready CSV files for Gusto, Justworks, ADP, and QuickBooks Payroll, plus operational data. Minnesota has the deepest state coverage; other states vary. On Free, every state has a guided checklist and official PDF export, while electronic DMV submission is available only for supported states on Pro. Free costs nothing; Studio costs $29 a month, with a 2.5% payment fee capped at 15 USD per student.
