Features

Everything you need to run a rental business

Bookings, fleet, payments and a branded booking site in one place — built for independent operators rather than enterprise fleets.

Bookings & calendar

A drag-to-create calendar with one row per vehicle, 24/7 online reservations and overbooking protection — plus quotes, extensions and pooled book-by-class.

Your branded booking site

A booking site in your own colours and logo where renters pick dates, choose a vehicle, add protection and pay — mobile-ready, in English or Spanish.

Payments & deposits

Cards, refundable deposit holds, refunds and pay-by-link through your own Stripe account — on a monthly subscription with 0% commission on your rentals.

Fleet management

Mileage, service history, maintenance costs, photos and documents for every vehicle — with alerts before a service falls due or papers expire.

Flexible pricing

Seasonal and length-of-rental rates, promo codes, extras, protection plans, young-driver fees and per-location tax — set the rules once and they just apply.

Customers & CRM

Profiles, rental history, loyalty points, tags and company billing details — your whole customer book in one place, with one-click export.

Reports & insights

Revenue, utilization, per-rental breakdowns, cash flow, AR aging, a booking funnel, cancellations and maintenance margin — with CSV export on the rental, customer, cash-flow, funnel and maintenance views.

AI assist

Photo capture is included. Coming soon: optional AI damage analysis to compare check-out and check-in photos and suggest possible new damage for your team to review.

Multi-location ready

Run one car or a fleet across several branches — each with its own business hours, pickup points and tax — from a single account, with per-branch staff access.

Day to day

From reservation to return, on one screen

Every rental — booked online or taken at the counter — lands on the same calendar and the same customer record. No double entry, no second system for walk-ins.

  • Drag across dates to create a booking; extend or cancel from the same place
  • Check-out and check-in capture odometer, fuel, walk-around photos and a signature
  • Overdue returns surface automatically, so nothing quietly runs late
  • Send a quote, then convert it to a booking when the customer says yes
  • One-way returns, delivery and with-driver service when you offer them
Getting paid

Money handled properly, with none of it ours

Payments run through your own Stripe account, so payouts land in your bank. RentalPilot charges a monthly subscription and takes no cut of a rental.

  • Take card payments at booking, at the counter, or by sending a pay-by-link
  • Place a refundable security-deposit hold and release it on return
  • Cancellations early enough refund the renter in full, automatically; the booking page shows each renter their exact position
  • Branded PDF invoices and receipts for any rental
  • Card details never touch our servers — Stripe Elements handles them end to end
Your fleet

Know what every vehicle costs you

Each vehicle carries its own history — bookings, mileage, services, costs and documents — so a car's real margin isn't a guess at the end of the year.

  • Service schedules by mileage, with alerts before they fall due
  • Maintenance costs logged per job and rolled into your reports
  • Document expiry tracking for insurance, registration and inspections
  • Retire a vehicle without losing its history
  • A "needs attention" panel that lists what's overdue right now
Setup & data

Yours to bring in — and to take out

Moving over shouldn't mean retyping your fleet. Import what you have, and export whatever you need, whenever you want it.

  • Import vehicles and customers from CSV, with a preview before saving
  • Review every row before anything is saved — nothing goes live until you say so
  • Export bookings, customers and financial reports to CSV at any time
  • An accounting export for your bookkeeper
  • Month-to-month — no contract, no lock-in, no exit fee
