OneDriver.lk marked a milestone on 12 August 2026, winning Silver in the Best Automotive Website category at BestWeb.LK 2026.

The award reflects its journey from handwritten booking records to a fully automated, technology-driven service.

This recognition also highlights the close partnership between OneDriver and HighFlyer. While OneDriver has remained focused on safety, reliability and personal service, HighFlyer has provided the digital roadmap, engineering and strategic guidance needed to scale the operation without losing the simple human experience on which the business was originally built.

OneDriver began with Drink’nDrive, a catchy name for a serious idea: helping customers return home safely in their own cars after a night out. A professional driver travels to the customer, then drives both the customer and their vehicle home. Today, OneDriver also provides drivers for airport transfers, corporate travel, events, long-distance journeys, tourism and vehicle servicing.

Serving 2,500+ customers through 35+ professional drivers around the clock, OneDriver is Sri Lanka’s leading Driver-as-a-Service company and its only deeply technology-integrated operator.

HighFlyer Global guided OneDriver’s technology growth and strategy, transforming its handwritten process into an integrated ERP platform for bookings, driver allocation, pricing, tracking, notifications, invoicing and payments. Its agentic AI lets management ask natural questions, receive insights and initiate actions. The internal driver app works in Sinhala, Tamil and English, eliminating language barriers for all staff.

OneDriver deliberately chose not to create a customer app. After a good night out, downloading an app, registering and remembering a password are hardly appealing. Calling or sending a WhatsApp message to a real person is simpler.

“Our customers don’t need another app. They just want to talk to a real person and book a driver. That’s it,” said Lakmal Wijesiri.
