Show HN: Track Token usage for major platforms,know your token flow(lifehacksgermany.com)

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.

Would genuinely love feedback from you all Power users.

Thank you all in advance.

This is good problem to solve, Atleast to begin with I have AI cost simulator which can help what models to choose based on the token usage and scenario. This helps model your scenario for best/worst case for API billing. Try modelindex.io
