Track tokens and AI Subscriptions across major AI platforms

A new macOS app called T4B enables users to track token usage and AI subscription costs across eight major AI platforms—including Claude, OpenAI, Cursor, and Copilot—from a single menu bar interface. The app provides live rate-limit warnings, month-end bill predictions, and per-session budget controls to help AI builders avoid unexpected spending. Available for a one-time fee of $7.99 after a free tier, T4B aims to consolidate AI cost management into one local, private tool.

Priya K., full-stack engineer “ I track 4 providers: Claude, OpenAI, Cursor, and Copilot. This is the only app that shows them all in one place.

German-built, local-first software for people who want the spend signal without turning their usage data into someone else's dataset. Everything stays on your Mac. No account. No cloud. No subscription — ever. ✅ Built in Germany 🔒 Local SQLite only 🚫 No accounts 📡 No telemetry ✅ Works offline Questions buyers ask before they install. Quick answers on what T4B tracks, how privacy works, and where the free plan stops. What is Tokens 4 Breakfast? Tokens 4 Breakfast T4B is a native macOS menu bar app that tracks your AI usage, costs, and rate limits across multiple providers in one unified dashboard. Instead of checking Claude's settings page, then OpenAI's billing page, then Cursor's dashboard separately, T4B aggregates everything into a single live view that's always one click away. It also forecasts when you'll hit rate limits, tracks spending trends over time, and lets you set budget caps with alerts so you never get surprised by a bill. Where is Tokens 4 Breakfast built? Tokens 4 Breakfast is built in Germany with a local-first privacy model: no account, no telemetry, and usage data stored on your Mac. What providers are supported? T4B supports 8 providers: Claude Code, Claude Web claude.ai subscription tracking , OpenAI, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, OpenRouter, DeepSeek, and Mistral. Claude Code connects automatically by reading local session files with no API key needed. GitHub Copilot connects via your local CLI credentials. Claude Web connects via your browser session cookie to track 5-hour and weekly rate limits in real time. All other providers connect via API key. The free plan includes 1 provider; Pro unlocks all 8. What is Focus Mode? Focus Mode lets you set a dollar budget for a specific work session. Hit Start, pick a budget $1, $2, $5, or custom , and T4B monitors your real-time spend across all connected providers. You'll get a notification at 80% of your budget and again when you hit 100%. It's useful when you want to timebox AI-assisted tasks without accidentally running up a large bill, especially when using API-billed providers like OpenAI or DeepSeek. Does the app read my conversations or prompts? No, and this is not a vague assurance. Here is exactly what happens in the code: when T4B reads Claude Code session files, it extracts only the usage metadata object token counts, model name, timestamp, cost . The actual message content, your prompts, and AI responses are never read, parsed, stored, or transmitted. The same applies to every other provider: T4B calls their official usage/billing API endpoints, which return aggregate token counts and costs, never conversation content. There is no technical path in the app to access your chats. Is there a free plan? Yes. The free plan lets you connect 1 provider and includes the full menu bar dashboard, 7-day spending chart, and subscription tracker. It's fully functional with no time limit and no account creation required. If you only use Claude Code and want to track your token usage and costs, the free plan covers that completely. Does it work with Claude Code without an API key? Yes. T4B reads Claude Code's local session files JSONL format in ~/.claude/projects/ directly on your Mac. No API key, no network call, no configuration beyond enabling the provider toggle. If you use Claude Code, T4B will automatically detect and parse your sessions.
