API Plan

Tesla Fleet API & Telemetry, pay as you go

Full access to the Tesla Fleet API and live telemetry through a single proxy token — commands, vehicle data, streaming and alerts. No subscription: pay only for the calls you make.

What you can do

Everything the Tesla Fleet API offers, in one place

Full Fleet API via one token

Call vehicle commands, read vehicle data and wake up your car through a single proxy token — over api.myteslamate.com, no app to register and no signing to manage.

Real-time telemetry streaming

Stream live signals from your Tesla — location, battery, speed and hundreds more — straight into your own tools and dashboards.

Sentry break-in alerts on Telegram

Get pushed the instant Sentry catches a threat — or someone pulls a door handle even with Sentry off to save battery. No false alarms when you (un)plug the charge cable, and optional auto-honk to scare intruders off.

Automations

Schedule commands and automatic reactions across every vehicle on your account — charging, climate, security and more.

Full call & telemetry logs

See every API call and telemetry event in one place — per day and over 30 days — so you always know exactly what your integrations are doing.

You stay in control

Manage granted Tesla scopes, cap a daily API limit, renew your token or tune command permissions at any time. 100% private — it runs on MyTeslaMate, with no third-party data sharing.

Use it your way

Plug it into whatever you already use

The API streams your data — TeslaMate keeps it

The Fleet API gives you live access to your Tesla. To also record everything — every drive, charge and battery reading — into beautiful Grafana dashboards you can look back on, add the hosted TeslaMate plan. It logs your data automatically, on top of the same API.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Tesla Fleet API?

The Tesla Fleet API is Tesla's official interface for reading vehicle data and sending commands to a car, replacing the old owner API. Using it directly means registering a developer application, hosting a public key and signing every command. MyTeslaMate's hosted proxy gives you the full Fleet API through a single token, with none of that setup.

What is Tesla telemetry and how do I access it?

Tesla telemetry is the real-time stream of signals your car emits — location, battery, speed, charging state and hundreds more — pushed live rather than polled. Access it through the Tesla Fleet API's telemetry configuration. MyTeslaMate streams that telemetry for you over one proxy token, so you can pipe live data into Home Assistant, dashboards or your own scripts without running any infrastructure.

How is MyTeslaMate's Tesla API different from Teslemetry?

Both give you Tesla Fleet API and telemetry access. Teslemetry charges a fixed per-device subscription; MyTeslaMate is pay-as-you-go with no base fee — you pay only for the calls you make. MyTeslaMate can also host your full TeslaMate with Grafana dashboards on top, which a pure API service does not.

Do I need a MyTeslaMate subscription to use the API?

No. The Tesla Fleet API and telemetry access are pay-as-you-go — you only pay for the calls you make, with no TeslaMate plan required.

How does pay-as-you-go pricing work?

You buy credits and spend them as you go: 500 credits cost 1€ (excl. tax). A command or 300 API calls use 1 credit, vehicle data uses 2, and a wake-up uses 20. You can cap a daily limit at any time.

What's the difference between this and creating my own Tesla API?

You can create and use your own Tesla API application for free. Our proxy is for when you'd rather not host the public key, sign commands and manage streaming yourself — you send requests through one token and we handle the rest.

Are there rate limits?

You can set your own daily cap to stay in control. Tesla's own Fleet API limits still apply, and full call and telemetry logs let you see exactly what your integrations are doing.
