THEIR STRENGTHS

Where Jaama Key2 is strong

Unmatched scale and depth

Jaama manages over 1.5 million vehicles. Their platform covers every aspect of fleet lifecycle management — from acquisition to disposal, grey fleet, driver risk, accident management, and HMRC compliance. For very large operations, this depth is hard to match.

Grey fleet and driver risk management

Key2 includes full grey fleet management — tracking employees who drive their own vehicles for work. Driver risk profiling, licence checking via DVLA D900, and integrated e-learning modules for driver training.

HMRC and regulatory integration

Direct integration with HMRC for P11D benefit-in-kind calculations, DVLA D900 bulk licence checks, and comprehensive regulatory reporting. Built for organisations with complex compliance obligations.

OUR ADVANTAGES

Where Kedra is different

Self-serve, no sales process

Jaama requires a sales call, scoping exercise, and multi-month implementation. Kedra is self-serve — sign up online, start adding vehicles immediately. No waiting for a demo, no procurement process.

80% of the value at 5% of the cost

Most fleet managers use compliance tracking, DVLA data, cost analysis, and daily checks daily. Kedra delivers these core features from £5/vehicle/month. Jaama's setup fees alone can exceed £5,000 before you track a single vehicle.

AI-powered fleet intelligence

Ask your fleet questions in plain English. Kedra's AI assistant works across compliance, costs, and vehicle data. Jaama has no AI capability.

Transparent, published pricing

Kedra's pricing is on the website. Free tier, Pro tier, no surprises. Jaama is quote-only with enterprise pricing that varies by fleet size, modules, and contract length.
