What it is

An operator network, in plain English.

One operator has work they can't cover. Another has a vehicle sitting idle. CoverMyRun puts the two in touch. That's it.

01

You post

The job details and the amount you're prepared to pay. No auction, no bidding war.

02

We match

Operators with the right vehicle, in the right area, on the right date get alerted.

03

They respond

Accept your price, come back with a counter-offer, or ask you a question first.

04

You connect

Once you both agree, contact details are released and you deal with each other directly.

CoverMyRun does not handle money between operators. No commission on jobs, no escrow, no payment processing. You agree terms directly, the same way you do now.

Why it exists

We've all had those days.

Fully booked

You've taken more work than your own fleet can cover.

Driver shortage

You've got the vehicle but not the driver.

Vehicle breakdown

Something goes wrong and you suddenly need replacement capacity.

Last-minute changes

A vehicle or driver becomes unavailable right before a job.

Empty returns

Your vehicle is travelling back empty and earning nothing.

Quiet fleet

You've got vehicles sitting idle that could be earning.

The plan

What we're adding, and when.

Operators who register now help decide what gets built first.

  1. Now, you are here

    Building the network

    We're signing up bus, coach and minibus operators across Northern Ireland before launch. Register and we'll come back to you with what we're building and when.

  2. Launch

    The job exchange goes live

    Post jobs you can't cover, find work that fits your fleet, negotiate directly and get connected. Verified operator profiles and email alerts from day one.

  3. After launch

    Empty legs and smart matching

    Publish an empty return and let the system find work that fits the movement. Jobs get scored against your fleet, your area and your availability.

  4. Then

    Fleet, drivers and urgent cover

    Tell the network when vehicles and drivers are free. Same-day emergency cover reaches suitable verified operators by email, SMS and push.

  5. Future

    Operator services

    Compliance tracking with reminders for insurance, licences and certificates. A supplier network covering insurance, finance, vehicles, tyres, parts, training and breakdown cover.

FAQ

Questions operators ask.

What is CoverMyRun, in one line?

A network where bus, coach and minibus operators pass work to each other. If you can't cover a job, you post it and another operator covers it. If you've got a vehicle free, you find work for it.

Does CoverMyRun handle the money?

No. We take no commission on jobs, hold no money and process no payments between operators. You agree the price on the platform, then invoice and pay each other directly, exactly as you do now.

What does it cost?

Registering is free, and there's no commitment. We'll be clear about pricing well before launch, and operators who register now will hear first.

What is Founder status, and how do I get it?

The first 10 operators to register and complete their profile are granted Founder status. Founders receive every future CoverMyRun update complimentary for as long as their account is active, along with a Founder badge and first access at launch. Places are granted in the order profiles are completed, so completing yours is what secures it.

Does complimentary forever really mean forever?

It means Founders are not charged for CoverMyRun features as they're released. It doesn't cover costs we pay to third parties on your behalf, such as SMS, and it applies while your account is active. We'll set the full terms out plainly before launch, and no Founder will be moved onto a paid plan for something that was free when they joined.

Is this just an auction where everyone undercuts each other?

No, and that's deliberate. You post the price you're prepared to pay. The other operator accepts it, counter-offers, or asks a question. It's a negotiation between two businesses, not a race to the bottom.

Who sees my contact details?

Nobody, until a job is agreed. Operators see your company profile and the job details. Contact details are released only once both sides have agreed.

Who can join?

Bus, coach and minibus operators. This is for operators, not for members of the public booking travel.

When does it launch?

We're building it now and recruiting operators first, because a network with nobody in it is no use to anyone. Register and we'll tell you the date as soon as we've got one.

Where does it cover?

Northern Ireland first, then across Ireland and the UK.

Be part of the network that keeps fleets moving.
