What is RAPP?

What is RAPP?

RAPP is a Belgian online learning platform that helps candidates prepare for the theory test for driving licence A and B, and for the risk perception test in the practical exam. The platform combines theory, practice questions, realistic mock exams and risk perception training in one accessible environment — without installation, without a subscription, available on any smartphone, tablet or computer.

RAPP is specifically built for the Belgian Highway Code and the official GOCA exam format, and is available in Dutch, French and English.

How did RAPP come about?

How did RAPP come about?

In 2026, the most common route to a driving licence in Belgium is still a thick paper book. Tars Van Der Vaerent, Daan Van Isterdael and Nick Van Isterdael could not believe it.

When a friend had to get her driving licence, the three technology consultants saw how far the learning process had fallen behind. They decided to investigate the problem thoroughly. Tars's MBA thesis at Vlerick Business School became the academic foundation of RAPP: an analysis of the entire ecosystem, supported by market research and interviews with candidates and parents. The conclusion was clear: a modern approach could make a measurable difference.

In 2025, Tars, Daan and Nick launched RAPP. The platform was mentioned in De Tijd (April 2026) as one of the most promising Belgian start-ups in the Jong Geweld section.

What is the ambition of RAPP?

What is the ambition of RAPP?

RAPP aims to become the obvious choice at European level for anyone who wants to get a driving licence. The platform is currently exploring how the Dutch market can be entered. In addition, the team is working on expansions such as AI integration for personalised learning, features around the practical driving test, and tools for affordable driving lessons.

The mission is simple: truly help candidates pass, not just repeat questions, but understand, practise and be prepared for the real exam.
