Built around how Philippine rental businesses actually work
Most rental software is written for a company with a counter, a back office and somebody whose whole job is the booking system. That is not what this market looks like, and building for it produces something nobody here can use.
What we assumed about you
Every one of these shaped a decision in the product. They are worth stating plainly, because if they are wrong about your business then ArkilaHub is probably the wrong tool and you should find that out on this page rather than three weeks in.
Your customers find you on Facebook
So nothing here tries to replace Messenger, and the booking page is built to be shared as a link rather than found through search. Your customers keep talking to you where they already do.
You get paid by GCash, Maya, bank transfer and cash
So payments are recorded and verified by a person rather than run through a card gateway. The money goes to you directly, the way it does now. We keep the record of it, not the funds.
You run the business from a phone
So every screen an owner, a driver or a customer needs works on a phone, and can be added to a home screen. A desktop is a nicer way to do the initial setup, not a requirement.
Your team is small, or it is just you
So there are no workflows that assume a separate finance department, and nothing needs three people to approve it. Staff roles exist for when you grow into them, not as a condition of starting.
You have somewhere between two and thirty vehicles
Small enough that a spreadsheet nearly works, big enough that it has started not to. That is the specific point where this helps most.
You did not buy this to learn software
So the trial is the whole product rather than a limited version, and when it ends you land on a free plan that still takes bookings rather than a locked door. The goal is that you find out whether it helps, not that you become an expert in it.
How we try to write about the product
Software marketing has a habit of describing what a product will do one day as though it does it now. We would rather be dull than do that, so these are the rules we hold ourselves to on this site.
- If a feature is not built, it is not on this website. Not as a hint, not as "coming soon" in a feature list.
- We do not collect your customers' payments. There is no gateway, and every page that mentions payments says so rather than letting you assume otherwise.
- There are no testimonials on this site until real operators give us real ones, with their name and their business attached.
- There are no customer counts, booking totals or "trusted by" logos, because we would be making them up.
- We do not claim security certifications. We describe what the system does and let you judge it.
- The price is on the site, and so is what happens when your trial ends: you move to the Free plan and keep taking bookings for up to 3 active vehicles.
- The trial is the complete Pro product, not a cut-down version, and nothing is charged automatically when it finishes. Pro is there when the business grows into it.
Where ArkilaHub is right now
It is a young product, and we would rather say that than dress it up. The system is built and working, covering bookings, fleet, drivers, payments, deposits, agreements, inspections, maintenance, reports and staff roles, and we are onboarding our first group of rental businesses.
That has one real advantage for an operator joining now: we have the time to help you set it up personally, and what you ask for genuinely affects what gets built next.
Turn your next Messenger enquiry into an organized booking.
Try every Pro feature with your real vehicles and bookings for 14 days. No card and no automatic charge.
