A single brake job is quoted anywhere from KES 3,500 to KES 12,000

Owning a car in Kenya is a ten-year relationship that quietly drains money, time and trust. There is no way to verify the work, and no record once it is done.

UrDrive swaps the guess for three fixed things.

  • Vetted mechanics

    Every mechanic is reviewed by the UrDrive team before their garage can take a single booking.

  • Itemised, up front

    Parts, labour and the total are shown before work starts, not after the car is already on the ramp.

  • History on the car

    Each vehicle keeps its own service record, whichever garage turned the wrench.

One booking, from the driveway to pickup.

The operating system for owning a car in Kenya.

In Kenya, a car is treated as a one-time purchase when it is really a ten-year relationship. The market that serves it afterwards is scattered and short on trust: service, parts, history and resale all run on phone calls and guesswork.

UrDrive is replacing that with a curated, standards-enforced network: vetted mechanics, itemised pricing shown before work starts, and a permanent service history attached to the vehicle itself.

  • Driver app

    Android

    Book a vetted mechanic, see the price first, track the job, keep the record.

  • Vendor app

    Android

    Garages and mechanics manage bookings, services, chats and payouts.

  • Operations console

Tell us who you are. We will take it from there.

One form, three paths. Drivers get early access to the app, garages are walked through vetting, and fleets get a direct conversation about Fleet Boss.
