Why this matters

No last-minute stress, no loose notes, and no doubt about who sees your data.

Reminders 30, 14, and 7 days in advance help you choose and book on time, without unnecessary sharing or extra clicks.

REMIND & BOOK

Never miss your APK or search last-minute again

What it is · Flow from reminder to booking

You'll see your due date well in advance, compare stations by distance, quality, and availability, and secure the appointment directly from a secure flow.

30/14/7-day rhythm from reminder to confirmed appointment

Smart APK Reminder: A service that monitors your APK due date and reminds you in good time, including handy calendar integrations.
When you get a notification at the right time, you avoid last-minute stress and can plan ahead relaxed.
Find the best station: A search module that compares APK stations on factors like distance, quality, and current availability for the best match.
If you quickly see the most suitable address, you can make a good choice without hassle.
Connect & Book Directly: Secure an appointment at your chosen station with a single click—no separate phone calls or back-and-forth emails.
This allows you to complete the entire APK task in minutes instead of planning your day around it.

I don't want any more loose notes or half-finished tasks. I want to know well in advance where I need to be, what it will cost, and that it's booked immediately.

From deadline to confirmation in one path: know the date, compare smart options, book, and get confirmed instantly.

PRIVACY & CONTROL

Your license plate and vehicle data remain under your control - Slide 1

Your license plate and vehicle data remain under your control

Why Trust Matters · Consent and Auditability

License plate, calendar, location, and booking details stay under your control. You only share what's necessary for the step you're currently taking.

Purpose-based consent, audit logs, and minimal data sharing

Unwanted Profiling: Without control, your license plate, location, and APK history can be linked and resold.
When data circulates beyond your control, it leads to manipulation and misuse that you cannot reverse.
Data Minimization is Lacking: More is collected than necessary for a simple reminder or booking.
When unnecessary fields are stored, it increases the attack surface and the risk of data breaches.
Security Risks: Sensitive information (address + time of absence) can facilitate criminal misuse.
When calendar and vehicle data are leaked, the risk of theft or burglary increases.

If I have to share, I want to see exactly what is being shared, why, and how I can revoke it. Otherwise, I just won't use it.

Each action only requests the data necessary for it, with clear consent and direct insight.

AUTOMATION

AI, OCR, and calendar logic take the manual work out of arranging your APK - Slide 1

AI, OCR, and calendar logic take the manual work out of arranging your APK

How it works · Orchestration and timing

AI, OCR, and calendar logic handle the prep work: recognizing the date, suggesting times, and presenting only the best options for you to choose.

OCR, smart timing, and calendar syncing in a continuous flow

Reminder agent with trigger logic: Detects your APK expiration date (entered manually or via OCR) and schedules timely nudges with smart buffers.
Timely and contextual warnings help you avoid stress, fines, and last-minute appointments.
OCR & Document Parser: Reads inspection certificates/emails and extracts the date and license plate with high accuracy.
When data is captured automatically, you save time on typing and minimize input errors.
Calendar & Conflict Orchestration: Syncs with your calendar, checks for free slots, and prevents scheduling conflicts.
When conflicts are resolved in advance, your schedule remains realistic and achievable.

I don't want to search, retype, and double-check anymore. I want the system to do the prep work and just let me confirm the final choice.

The service reads the date, checks your schedule, suggests suitable garages, and lets you simply confirm the choice.

COLLABORATION

Driver, station, and partners work in the same chain

Who participates · Roles and collaboration

Driver, station, garage, and partners can work on the same appointment without separate calls, unclear roles, or duplicate work.

Shared appointment status for driver, station, and partners

Bestuurder/voertuigeigenaar: Krijgt tijdige herinneringen en boekt eenvoudig bij een passend APK‑station.
When control and clarity come together, the chance of fines and stress decreases significantly.
APK Stations & Garages: Receive better-prepared appointments with relevant vehicle context.
When planning and information are correct, occupancy rates increase, turnaround times improve, and customer satisfaction grows.
Lease & Fleet Managers: Manage multiple vehicles with central planning and a status overview.
By bundling and having predictable appointments, downtime is reduced and operational costs are lowered.

TECHNICAL FOUNDATION

Consent manager, data vault, and connectors make it tangible

What it runs on · Data vault and connections

Consent manager, data vault, connectors, and logbook together form the visible foundation of a service that works quickly and radiates trust.

Data vault, consent, and connectors work together visibly

Consent Manager: Fine-grained consent management for sharing license plate and inspection data.
When you share and revoke access per data field, control and trust demonstrably remain with the driver.
User Data Vault: Encrypted personal vault for vehicle and APK data, completely under your control.
Since your data stays local or in your cloud, you avoid platform silos and duplicate entries.
Secure API Gateway: A secure gateway with OAuth/OIDC, rate-limiting, and key rotation.
This enables secure integrations with calendars, notification channels, and booking partners.

VALUE

The benefits are money, time, focus, and less stress from procrastination.

What It Delivers · Time, Money, and Peace of Mind

The benefit isn't just avoiding a fine, but also less time searching, fewer interruptions, and more peace of mind surrounding the entire APK appointment.

Lower risk of fines, less time searching, and reduced mental clutter.

Avoid Fines and Extra Costs: A timely APK prevents fines, unnecessary re-inspections, and potential downtime costs.
When reminders and scheduling keep you on track, unexpected expenses and stress are kept at bay.
Smart Booking for the Best Price: Compare by price, distance, and reviews to find the best value.
By not waiting until the last minute, you avoid peak prices and pay a fair, transparent rate.
Bundle Appointments for Package Savings: Combine your APK with a minor service or tire change to reduce trips and costs.
When you bundle services, you benefit from package discounts and reduce unnecessary mileage.

CHANNELS

The service lives in the app, calendar, notifications, and station finder.

Where It Works · App, Calendar, and Notifications

You use the service wherever it suits you: in the app, via your calendar, through notifications, and via direct links to suitable stations.

Available via app, calendar, notifications, and station finder.

EU-cloud-first with NL primary region: Containerized microservices run in EU data centers (NL primary, EU-west failover) for high availability and low latency. When workloads are regionally redundant, the service remains reliable during peaks and outages.
Kubernetes + Autoscaling: Stateless services behind load balancers with horizontal autoscaling and IaC (Terraform) for consistent deployment. As capacity scales automatically, reminders and bookings continue to work smoothly during busy periods.
Edge OCR & PWA Support: License plate/note OCR can run on-device or at the edge; web app as a PWA with offline caching. This allows you to capture data and plan, even with a temporarily weak network.
Observability & Resilience: Centralized logging, metrics, and tracing (OpenTelemetry) plus blue-green/rolling deploys. This reduces MTTR and ensures that updates go live without interruption.
Mobile & Web: iOS/Android apps via the App Store/Google Play and a responsive PWA for quick access without installation. This allows every driver to choose the channel that best suits their device and preference.
Calendar Connectors: Integrations with Google, Apple, and Outlook calendars for automatic appointments and reminders. When appointments are in sync with your calendar, the chance of forgetting or double-booking decreases.

Timing

30, 14, and 7 days in advance, with peace of mind until your appointment.

When It Helps · Rhythm and Follow-up

Reminders 30, 14, and 7 days in advance provide enough time to choose, book, and reschedule if needed, without any rush.

Fixed rhythm of 30, 14, and 7 days in advance.

Phase 1 – MVP Pilot (3–4 weeks): Smart APK reminder with calendar integration; manual entry and OCR of expiration date; limited test group. When the basic flow is stable with a small group, we can scale up safely without surprises.
Phase 2 – Beta + Station Finder (4–6 weeks): Add 'Find Best APK Station' based on distance, reviews, and availability; direct booking integration in selected regions. If searching and booking are smooth, this reduces friction and noticeably increases adoption.
Phase 3 – National Rollout (6–8 weeks): Phased rollout across the Netherlands with monitoring, observability, and performance SLOs; continuous improvement based on usage data. By launching in stages, we ensure stability and can quickly make adjustments where needed.
Phase 4 – Optimization & Expansion (ongoing): Fine-tuning reminder timings, improving station rankings, and adding new scenarios (e.g., multiple vehicles, maintenance appointments). This ensures the solution remains relevant and its value for drivers continuously grows.
Pilot Exit Criteria: ≥95% correct expiration date detection, >99% reminder delivery rate, positive user satisfaction (NPS/CSAT), and zero critical flow-blockers. Once these thresholds are met, the foundation is reliable enough for broader testing.
Beta Exit Criteria: ≥70% successful bookings via the flow, median booking time <3 minutes, ≥99.5% crash-free sessions, and validated UX improvements. When users can book quickly and flawlessly, the value proposition is proven and ready for scaling.

FUTURE

What's Next · 3D and Future-Ready

The 3D car demonstrates how the service can evolve with new regulations, connected vehicles, and richer vehicle data without needing to start from scratch.

Prepared for changing regulations, connected cars, and new data streams

EU Frameworks in Motion: The EU AI Act, Data Act, eIDAS 2.0, and NIS2 are setting the stage; UNECE R155/R156 are guiding software updates and vehicle cybersecurity.
By translating these developments into our design choices early on, we avoid cumbersome redesigns and stay compliant with the latest standards.
Smarter Vehicles & EVs: Connected cars, OTA updates, ADAS/OBD diagnostics, and faster EV adoption are changing maintenance and inspection patterns.
This allows our service to adapt to new APK requirements, data access, and remote checks in a timely manner, without creating friction for the driver.
Open Data & Interoperability: RDW services, European mobility data spaces, and ISO/ETSI standards promote secure, standardized data exchange.
This ensures that connecting with stations, planners, and ecosystems remains smooth, scalable, and future-proof.
