I use multiple AI tools for work and also my side projects, and the annoying part was to track my costs and token usage across tools.
Everytime I had to visit each tool and its respective usage setting to check it and I was losing patience and also was getting hit by surprise limits
Now I know that there are already free/open-source trackers for Cursor or Claude usage, and they are useful if that is all you need.
My problem is broader as I wanted one small place to see tokens, spend, subscriptions and limits across the AI tools I actually use. I was really tired of switching tabs and apps to check the usage.
So I built Tokens 4 Breakfast
It sits in the Mac menu bar and helps track usage across Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT, OpenAI API, Copilot and other providers. You can also set limit reminders and focus mode to always stay under the budget.
Check your usage insights per project and per model in Claude Code to get a even better understanding of where your tokens are flowing plus many more interesting features.
Local-first. No login. No cloud. No telemetry. No subscriptions. Privacy Focused.
Built in .
Not trying to replace individual app dashboard but just trying to stop jumping between five different places while building worrying about hitting limits and exceeding costs.
Launch week code for people here: "IAMPRO4T4B"
Would genuinely love feedback from you all Power users.
