For Australian Tesla drivers & businesses
Your Tesla logs every trip. We make it ATO-compliant.
Odoproof captures every trip from your Tesla and classifies it business or private — a contemporaneous logbook that locks in your business-use percentage and stands up to an ATO audit. No paper logbook, no spreadsheet.
- Automatic trip capture
- ATO-ready logbook
- No paper logbook
Unlogged trips are lost money — or an audit risk
Without a complying logbook, the ATO caps your car claim at the cents-per-kilometre method — 88c/km for at most 5,000 business kilometres, no full running costs. The logbook method unlocks a percentage of every actual cost, but only if your records are contemporaneous. The ATO now cross-checks logbooks against toll and telematics data, and car expenses are a standing audit focus.
- •No logbook means the cents-per-km cap: 88c/km, max 5,000 km ($4,400).
- •Every untracked business kilometre is a deduction you never claim.
- •A messy 12 weeks can force the higher statutory formula method for FBT.

Everything you need to stay audit-proof
Built for the way Australian drivers and businesses actually keep a logbook.
Automatic trip capture
Trips are pulled straight from your Tesla with date, odometer readings, distance and start/end — nothing to enter by hand.
Business / private split
Classify trips individually or in bulk and get an accurate business-use percentage for the logbook method.
Contemporaneous logbook
Records are captured as you drive, meeting the ATO standard that reconstructed logbooks fail.
ATO-ready exports
Export audit-ready logbooks for your income tax return, FBT operating cost method or GST apportionment.
Multiple vehicles
Track more than one Tesla and keep each vehicle's logbook separate.
Private by design
Least-privilege access to your Tesla data, encrypted and never sold.
Works with every Tesla
Compatible with every Tesla regardless of the onboard computer (MCU1, MCU2, MCU3/Ryzen). Nothing to install in the car.
Saved places
Pre-set your usual places (home, work) so each trip is pre-classified as business or personal — you just confirm.
Apps coming soon
iOS and Android apps and an in-Tesla app are in private beta and will be available to everyone soon.

ATO Logbook Rules for Electric Tesla Drivers in Australia (2025-26)
Yes — the logbook obligation applies to your electric Tesla exactly as it does to any other car. Australia's rules for substantiating business-versus-private vehicle use are fuel-type neutral, so driving a battery-electric vehicle (BEV) does not remove the need to keep records. In fact, even when your Tesla qualifies for the electric-car FBT exemption, the ATO still treats it as a reportable fringe benefit, and only a complying 12-week logbook lets you (or your employer) work out the amount and claim the running-cost deductions and GST credits you are owed.
