What Tacho is
Tacho is an Android and iOS app that automatically records vehicle mileage for work trips. GPS captures each trip’s start, route, destination, and kilometers, while records remain stored locally offline and synchronize when connectivity returns. Mileage logs can be exported as PDF reports described as accepted by Slovak tax authorities. The Free plan costs nothing and includes one vehicle, automatic GPS tracking, PDF export, and offline functionality. PRO adds unlimited vehicles, travel orders, accountant notifications, cross-device synchronization, and priority support. PRO costs €6.99 a month, billed monthly with cancellation anytime, or €69.99 a year, billed annually at approximately €5.83/month. Tacho supports reimbursement rates, vehicle profiles, expense export, and monthly report emails to an accountant. PRO can use Claude Haiku to suggest trip purposes, sending anonymized destination, time, and day-of-week data to Anthropic. Servers are in the European Union, with GDPR export and deletion support.
