TeslaMate Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

TeslaMate hosting on xCloud lets you deploy TeslaMate, a self-hosted data logger for your Tesla with Grafana dashboards for drives, charging and efficiency, on your own domain. xCloud runs the pinned stack with PostgreSQL, Grafana and a Mosquitto broker behind a Caddy gateway that asks for a generated login on every route, keeps volumes for your data and publishes it over HTTPS. TeslaMate is independent of Tesla.

What is TeslaMate?

TeslaMate is a self-hosted data logger for your Tesla, written in Elixir, storing data in Postgres and visualising it with Grafana. It records drive data with high precision, tracks charge costs, looks up addresses, supports geofencing, handles several vehicles on one account and publishes vehicle data to a local MQTT broker for tools such as Home Assistant, Node-RED and Telegram. A self-hosted TeslaMate is a Tesla data logger on your own server. It is AGPL-3.0 licensed and is not affiliated with Tesla.

On xCloud it is TeslaMate 4.1.1 with PostgreSQL, Grafana, Mosquitto and Caddy, all pinned by digest. Caddy protects every public route with HTTP Basic authentication and Grafana sits at /grafana/ with its own admin password. The teslamate_db, teslamate_grafana and teslamate_import volumes hold durable data, and a generated encryption key protects stored Tesla API tokens.

From Sign-Up to a Live Tesla Logger In Just 3 Easy Steps

A TeslaMate stack normally means five containers, a database, a broker, dashboards, an auth proxy, an encryption key, a domain and a certificate before the first drive is logged. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up

    Create your xCloud account and pick TeslaMate from the OneClick catalog. Choose your domain and target server, then set the Access Username and Timezone and keep the generated Access Password and Grafana Admin Password or enter your own.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy It For You

    One click. We bring up the official TeslaMate 4.1.1 image with PostgreSQL 18, Mosquitto 2.1.2, Grafana and a Caddy authentication gateway, mount the teslamate_db, teslamate_grafana, teslamate_mosquitto_config, teslamate_mosquitto_data and teslamate_import volumes, and publish it over HTTPS on your domain.

  3. Step 03

    Sign In And Connect Your Tesla

    Open your domain, pass the access prompt with the generated credentials, then follow TeslaMate's supported Tesla authorisation flow; the resulting tokens are encrypted with the generated key. Open /grafana/, pass the same prompt and sign in as admin with the generated Grafana password.

Everything TeslaMate Does, On Your Own Server

TeslaMate runs in full here: logging, efficiency and charging statistics, Grafana dashboards and MQTT for Home Assistant, on infrastructure you control.

  • Every Drive And Charge

    Drives, charging sessions, efficiency, locations and vehicle state, logged continuously.

  • Grafana Dashboards Included

    TeslaMate's maintained dashboards at /grafana/, reading from PostgreSQL.

  • MQTT For Home Assistant

    A private Mosquitto broker receives live vehicle state for downstream consumers.

  • Login Gateway In Front

    TeslaMate has no UI authentication, so a Caddy proxy requires HTTP Basic Authentication on every public route.

  • Tokens Encrypted

    Tesla API tokens are encrypted with a generated key that must stay stable.

  • Only Caddy Is Published

    PostgreSQL, MQTT, Grafana and TeslaMate talk only on the private Compose network.

What You Can Do With TeslaMate

  • See every drive and its efficiency

    Review drives, trips and energy efficiency on bundled Grafana dashboards, with distance and energy consumed for each drive.

  • Track what charging really costs

    Log charging sessions with TeslaMate's charge cost tracking, then read charging statistics over time on the bundled dashboards.

  • Watch battery health and vampire drain

    Follow battery health and standby drain on dedicated dashboards, while upstream aims to let the car fall asleep as soon as possible to avoid extra drain.

  • Feed your smart home over MQTT

    Publish vehicle data to a local MQTT broker and use it from Home Assistant, Node-RED or Telegram for automations and alerts.

TeslaMate vs Alternatives

TeslaFi
TeslaFi is a hosted Tesla logging service. TeslaMate can import data from TeslaFi, and a self-hosted install keeps drives, charges and tokens in your own database.
Tessie
Tessie is a hosted Tesla app. TeslaMate is a logger you run yourself, with Grafana dashboards, MQTT output and geofencing, and with your Tesla API tokens stored on your own server.
Home Assistant
Home Assistant has its own OneClick page. Upstream lists it as a consumer of TeslaMate's MQTT data, so the two work together rather than compete.
Grafana
Grafana has its own OneClick page. TeslaMate bundles its own Grafana dashboards for drives, charging and battery, so you do not need to build them from scratch.

Hear what people are saying about us

See why agencies, developers, startups, and growing businesses choose xCloud to power their projects.

xCloud works really well, I am surprised by its performance being this the release version, I have tried many paid platforms such as runcloud, cloudpages or serveravatar, as well as free platforms such as CyberPanel, CloudPanel or Hestia Control Panel and direct competitors such as SpinupWP and FlyWP. Of all those that I have tried, the platform that works best for WordPress is SpinupWP and I believe that xCloud can reach and surpass that development, its roadmap is promising. Congratulations to the xCloud team, I hope they become the leading platform in the segment, it has all the potential to achieve it!
Brian Geovanny
I've been with runcloud for the last 3 years. However, after trying xcloud for the last month, I'm switching over. They are on a roll with their setup.
Kevin Pineda
I'm moving my servers to xCloud, a cloud control panel by M Asif Rahman and the WPDeveloper team. Their roadmap looks interesting and no, there are no team mates nor API limits with xCloud! #xCloud #wordpress #hosting

How Cloud Nine Web Elevated Client Experience While Streamlining Hosting Operations using xCloud
Ed Ellingham
xCloud is like having an expert server team on call — without the big agency costs. It's given me back my time and given my clients peace of mind. Highly recommended for freelancers and small teams who want reliable performance and security.
Dumitru Butucel
xCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.
Waqar Ahmed
Trust me when I say, once people explore the potential of xCloud they gonna switch from other panels, just keep delivering the best tech, lots of love for the team 😍😍
Rahul Singh
So far my experience has been smooth like silk. I didn't imagine that configuring and managing a VPS would be so easy. As of today, I have deployed 8 sites. The support is good, and they treat users with respect, even if they ask stupid questions (myself included). For the future, I hope for greater flexibility in scheduled backups and more comprehensive and consistent documentation. I'm sure that within a few months, xCloud will become the leader in its segment. This community is amazing, and the Staff here is super helpful.
Massimo Villa
Came from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.
Gerson El
I've recently taken all of my Vultr-hosted sites and gotten rid of cPanel for them to substitute it with xCloud. I have to say, I'm really impressed with xCloud so far! The interface is definitely the standout feature for me.
Tony Lewis
I came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.
Jared McDowell
I like xCloud better than RunCloud, but one thing I'll point out is that some years ago RunCloud was hungry for business, the support was outstanding, and the community was active and helped each other. Maybe it was sold, there was a change in management, or they stopped being hungry, but the quality of the RunCloud offering declined and it hasn't been moving forward quickly. My point is that currently the xCloud team has the edge and it is theirs to keep or lose

How Kevin Heinrichs Cut Hosting Costs by 84% While Running WooCommerce & Node.js Sites Efficiently
Kevin Heinrichs
I had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.
Dan Spinoza
Dear xCloud Team, I have been using xCloud for some time now and am genuinely impressed with its capabilities and the flexibility it offers by allowing users to bring their own VPS for management. It's a fantastic service, and my experience so far has been very positive. Successful migrated 5 sites on a single server. Xcloud migration tool worked great. There were few hiccups with security plugin like MalCare but disabling the plugin prior to migration worked just fine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.

How much RAM does TeslaMate need?

The template floor is 2048 MB of RAM, 2 CPU cores and 10 GB of disk, because TeslaMate, PostgreSQL, Grafana, Mosquitto and Caddy all run. The 6 GB plan clears the floor, and your driving history grows the database.

Can you self-host TeslaMate with Docker?

Yes, and this template is teslamate docker hosting without the setup: the app, PostgreSQL, Grafana, Mosquitto and Caddy images pinned by digest, named volumes, a generated encryption key and HTTPS, with a login in front of every route.

Is my TeslaMate dashboard password protected?

Yes. Caddy asks for a generated access username and password before any TeslaMate or Grafana page loads, and Grafana has its own admin login at /grafana/. Your Tesla API tokens are stored encrypted with a key you must keep.

Does TeslaMate work with Home Assistant?

Yes. Upstream publishes vehicle data to a local MQTT broker and lists Home Assistant, Node-RED and Telegram integrations. The template includes a Mosquitto broker on the private network, with its volumes reserved and holding no durable state.

Can I import data from TeslaFi into TeslaMate?

Yes. Upstream can import data from TeslaFi and tesla-apiscraper. The template provides an import volume for the files. Test an import on a copy of your data first, and keep your TeslaFi export until you check the results.

Is TeslaMate an alternative to TeslaFi?

For logging drives and charges, yes. Upstream offers a TeslaFi import and publishes no comparison. TeslaMate is a self-hosted project, so you run updates, backups and the Tesla token yourself.

Is TeslaMate free?

Yes. TeslaMate is licensed under AGPL-3.0 and has no licence charge. The Cloud VPS is the only bill, so this TeslaMate cloud install is yours alone.

How do I back up TeslaMate?

Back up teslamate_db, teslamate_grafana and teslamate_import together. The two Mosquitto volumes hold no durable state. Keep ENCRYPTION_KEY with the backup, because changing it makes stored Tesla API tokens unreadable.

How do I upgrade TeslaMate?

TeslaMate stays on its pinned 4.1.1 images until a newer template version is adopted. Copy the three data volumes beforehand and check the release notes. No upgrade is automatic.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no lock-in — cancel any time. Hosting is billed monthly and charged for what you actually use, so when you delete the server the unused balance is refunded to your account, less up to 10% in payment-processing fees.
