Lepermislibre

Lepermislibre.fr sells fully-online French driving-school packages for the B-category car licence: theory (code) training, mock exams, and step-by-step booking of the practical test. Prices sit in the budget-to-mid-range band, typically €299-€449 depending on the number of driving hours and whether the student already holds the code, undercutting traditional auto-école tariffs by 30-50%. The company operates 100 % digitally; students study theory on the site or mobile app and schedule practice sessions with partner instructors through the same dashboard. The brand’s USP is the “permis libre” route: learners prepare the code independently, take the official exam at a public centre, then book only the driving hours they need instead of buying fixed bundles. Unlimited corrected quizzes, AI-driven progress tracking and a same-day refund guarantee for any failed code test reinforce the positioning. Since 2016 the platform has trained more than 250 000 candidates and claims a 93 % first-time code pass rate. Core customers are 18-25-year-old students and young professionals who want schedule flexibility, transparent pricing and control over spending. They are comfortable with self-study apps and prefer to avoid the long commitment and upselling typical of neighbourhood driving schools; value-for-money and digital convenience outweigh the desire for hand-holding. Lepermislibre competes with both brick-and-mortar driving schools and a growing field of online code-only prep sites. It differentiates by integrating the whole licence journey—code training, hour purchase, instructor matching—into one low-friction, pay-as-you-go digital flow, eliminating enrolment fees and physical classroom attendance while keeping the student legally within the state-regulated “conduite accompagnée” or “conduite supervisée” frameworks.
