TachoSafe (Desktop) Pro
Desktop Application
The PRO desktop application for tachograph and driver card analysis — local, offline, with the full toolbox transport managers need. Runs on Windows, no internet required, with deeper analysis, multi-driver reporting and authority-ready exports built in.
What PRO does vs. LITE?
TachoSafe Lite gives you free basic file processing on every TachoSafe device. Desktop PRO adds the management features and report depth that small and mid-size fleets actually use day to day — without forcing you onto a subscription or into the cloud.
TachoSafe Desktop PRO does not have a per-driver, per-vehicle or monthly fee. It is bundled with PRO-enabled TachoSafe devices and activates automatically by serial number.
• One-time activation, no recurring cost
• Volume and partner pricing through the TachoSafe reseller network
• Full base pricelist available on request
Built for managers who want depth without the subscription
✓ Small & mid-size transport companies — full local control of tachograph compliance without a recurring cloud fee.
✓ Fleet managers in remote or low-connectivity sites — workshops, depots and border offices where offline tools are essential.
✓ Compliance & HR teams who need multi-driver reports, country-based work hours and inspection-ready exports.
✓ Authority-facing roles — drivers, inspectors and roadside personnel who need a portable, certified-file viewer.
✓ Resellers’ service technicians — installing, validating and demonstrating fleet downloads on-site.
Full report suite
Multi-driver and multi vehicle reports, work hours by country, infringement reports and the “All drivers” period selector — generated locally.
Inspection-ready
File export for authority inspections, digital signature validation and a complete events & faults viewer for every download.
Smart file handling
Watched folders auto import new downloads. Process files from other media or USB sticks — not only from your TachoSafe DownloadTOOL.
Alert system
Card expiration alerts and download due alerts surface what would otherwise slip through the cracks — before they become infringements.
One-time activation
Activated automatically by your PRO-enabled TachoSafe device (Tacho2Safe, Tacho5Safe+ PRO variants). No monthly fees, no perdriver pricing.
No cloud dependency
Standalone build runs without a device once activated. Works on PCs with no internet, in workshops, depots or on-site at inspections.

TachoSafe Connect → Desktop PRO
Automatic downloads via SIM card and 8 GB memory. Files land in your watched folder; PRO does the rest.
Tacho5Safe+ → Desktop PRO
Bluetooth downloads plus 8 GB onboard memory,
with PRO activation included. The most flexible PRO bundle
for the modern transport office.
Tacho2Safe → Desktop PRO

TachoSafe WEB Pro
Need cloud + automation too?
Customers running PRO can still use TachoSafe WEB
in parallel for browser access, RDU remote downloads
and full fleet analytics. PRO and WEB Pro complement each other
— they don’t compete.
