Most licensing focuses on:
basic compliance.
We focus on:
behavioral mastery.
Analyzing global best practices, crash histories, and jurisdictional licensing data from 24 countries. Our behavioral scientists identify the highest-leverage intervention points across the learner-to-license journey.
Gathering data points from road users, driving instructors, trauma surgeons, and policymakers across Australia and New Zealand. Every insight feeds directly into the national framework — no opinion is discarded.
Rolling out a unified graduated licensing system across all Australian states and territories, with New Zealand coordination. Built on our research and consultation data, with a 15% projected risk reduction in the first deployment year.
