Your own booking site
A booking link or a full site with your cars, dates and live prices. Renters add a card, pass an ID check and sign your agreement.
Tesla rental fleet software, built on Tesla’s own Fleet API.
Keechain runs the work between your cars and your renters: the key, the trip, the charging bill, the tolls and the payment that did not go through. Sign in with the Tesla account that owns the cars and every car on it comes across.
We never see your Tesla password. Free for up to 10 cars.
What it does
Everything between the car and the card.
Each part works on its own, and they share one record of who had which car, when.
Phone keys that end on time
A Key gives one driver one car from a start time to an end time. It lands on their phone and stops working when the Key ends.
Learn moreTuro trips, Keys issued for you
Keechain reads your Turo trips and can give each guest their Tesla app invite before the trip, then take it back after.
Learn moreSupercharging billed back
Each session goes to whoever held the Key, with your markup. Declined cards are retried every 12 hours.
Learn moreA lock for unpaid balances
After the hours and amount you set, PIN to Drive turns on once the car is parked. Paying shows the PIN.
Learn moreTolls, expenses and profit per car
Import toll statements as CSV or Excel, charge them to the driver, and see a monthly P&L per car.
Live telemetry and trips
Location, charge, tire pressure and every trip on a map, kept for as long as the car is connected.
Alerts and geofences
Speeding, harsh driving, low battery and low tires. Draw an area or make a whole US state the geofence.
An assistant that does the work
Ask it to unlock a car, cool it before a handover or find who owes you. It asks before it charges anyone or ends a Key.

Who it is for
Turo hosts, rideshare rentals and company fleets.
One car or a hundred, rented out or not.
Most fleets on Keechain rent Teslas on Turo, rent them by the week to rideshare drivers, or hand them to staff. The same Keys, charging rules and records work for all three.
Turo hostsTrips come in from Turo, guests get their invite on time, and charging and tolls are matched to the trip.
Rideshare rentalsWeekly Keys, cards on file, Supercharging billed to the driver and a lock if a payment fails.
Company fleetsKeys per shift or per project, and the company covers charging so staff never need a card.
Why a Tesla-specific tool
General car rental software treats every car the same, so it leans on GPS boxes, lockboxes and key handoffs. A Tesla already has what those add: a phone key, live data and remote commands. Keechain uses them through Tesla’s official Fleet API, so there is no hardware to install and nothing for the renter to pick up.
Non-Tesla cars can be added through Smartcar, and each shows only the controls it really supports.
Pricing
Free for up to 10 cars. Pro is $5 a month plus $1 per extra car, Fleet is $10 plus $3, and Rentals is $15 plus $5. The first car is included in each base fee. Supercharging re-billing is on Pro, the non-payment lock and alerts on Fleet, and extensions, add-ons and renter text messages on Rentals. Re-billed charging carries a small service fee, paid by the driver.
Questions
Frequently asked
Do I need to install anything in the car?
No. Keechain works through Tesla’s Fleet API. You sign in with the Tesla account that owns the cars and they come across with their live data.
Does Keechain see my Tesla password?
No. You sign in on Tesla’s own page and Tesla gives Keechain access to the cars. You can revoke it from your Tesla account at any time.
Does it work with Turo?
Yes. Turo has no public API, so you either add Keechain to a Turo hosting team or forward your Turo emails. Trips appear within about 15 minutes, and Keechain can issue each guest’s Key before their trip.
What does it cost?
Free for up to 10 cars. Pro is $5 a month plus $1 per extra car, Fleet is $10 plus $3, and Rentals is $15 plus $5. The first car is included in each base fee.
Can I use it for cars that are not Teslas?
Yes, through Smartcar. Each car shows only the controls its maker supports, so some Tesla-only features such as PIN to Drive do not apply.
