Peace of Mind When Sharing Your Tesla
Know how your Tesla is being driven when you're not behind the wheel. Sentry Driver monitors trips and alerts you in real-timefor speeding, curfew violations, and risky driving behavior - all powered by Tesla's official Fleet API.
The Challenge of Sharing Your Vehicle
Whether it's a teenager learning to drive, a family member borrowing the car, or an employee using a company vehicle - you want to know your Tesla is being driven safely. Without real-time visibility, you're left hoping for the best.
How Sentry Driver Protects Your Vehicle
Sentry Driver connects to your Tesla via the official Fleet API and uses Bluetooth detection to check whether your owner phone is present. When your owner phone is not detected during a monitored drive, you get timely alerts for speeding, hard braking, late-night driving, and possible accidents - without any action needed from the driver.

Tesla Has Parental Controls — Here's What Sentry Driver Adds
Tesla's built-in Parental Controls are good at setting hard limits — such as a speed cap, reduced acceleration, and a late-night curfew notice where available — on a PIN-protected mode you switch on manually. Sentry Driver works differently, and the two can complement each other.
Tesla Parental Controls
Enforces limits on the car: caps top speed, can force gentler acceleration, and can notify you about late-night driving — once you turn on its PIN-protected mode and remember to switch it back when drivers change.
What Sentry Driver Adds
Near real-time alerts when your owner phone is not detected — automatically checked over Bluetooth, with no mode to toggle. Set your own speeding thresholds, get hard-braking alerts, and review trip history. Sentry Driver watches and tells you; it never controls the car.
