Founding program For designated pilot examiners

Help build the software your practice runs on.

DPE Portal brings requests, documents, deposits and FAA filing prep into one place. Before launch, we're working with a small group of founding examiners who shape what gets built and use it free while we do.

✓ Pro free during early access ✓ Founding pricing after launch ✓ No card and no commitment to join

Most of the job isn't the checkride.

Requests come in by text, email and voicemail. Documents show up the morning of the ride. And every checkride ends with an evening of typing the same details into DMS and IACRA.

Requests get lost

A text from a CFI, a voicemail, an email from a school. Tracking who asked for what is a job of its own.

Rides fall apart on the ramp

A missing endorsement or an expired test report ends the ride before it starts, and the day is gone.

Late cancels cost you the day

Without a deposit, a cancellation the night before is a slot you can't fill and a fee you don't collect.

Filings follow you home

DMS and IACRA entries stack up after every ride. Fall behind and a post-activity report goes overdue.

The founding offer

What you get for helping us build it.

Founding examiners use DPE Portal on real rides before anyone else and tell us what to fix. In return:

01 Pro, free during early access

Every Pro feature at no cost while we build it with you. No card needed to join.

02 Founding pricing after launch

When early access ends, you keep founding pricing instead of moving to the standard Pro rate.

03 A say in what gets built

You talk directly with the people building DPE Portal. Founding feedback decides what ships next.

04 Setup done with you

We go through your fees, policies and ride types together on a call, so you're not configuring software alone.

What you'll use

One place for the whole ride, from request to filing.

✓
One request queue

Texts, calls, email and your booking site, all in one list with the source on each.

✓
Documents before the ramp

Applicants upload ahead of time. You verify or reject with a reason they see word for word.

✓
Deposits and your policy

A deposit holds the date, and your cancellation policy is enforced without an awkward phone call.

✓
Weather moves in two taps

Offer new dates and the applicant and CFI confirm. Moving for weather is always free.

✓
FAA filing prep

DMS and IACRA fields assembled in the order the FAA asks for them. You enter and sign with your own credentials.

✓
Your own booking site

A page with your real open dates, fees and policy, so applicants stop texting to ask.

Features open to founding examiners in stages during early access.

How it works

Three steps from this page to your first ride on it.

Step 01 Join the waitlist

Two minutes. Tell us where you fly and how you book rides now.

Step 02 Talk with us

A 30-minute call about how you run your practice, so your setup matches it from day one.

Step 03 Use it on real rides

Run your next rides through DPE Portal and tell us what's missing. You can leave any time.
