Tokimeter tracks local AI coding costs privately

ANNOUNCEMENT PRODUCT GITHUB PRODUCT HUNT

Tokimeter is a local analytics tool that aggregates usage records and calculates exact token counts from popular AI coding assistants into a single report. It provides limit windows with budget warnings directly in your status line, ensuring cost control without compromising privacy since no data ever leaves your machine.

// ANALYSIS

Tokimeter elegantly solves the growing pain point of fragmented API tracking for developers heavily utilizing multiple local AI coding tools. It consolidates usage from a wide array of tools including Claude, Cursor, and Copilot CLI into one unified report. The tool prioritizes privacy with a strictly local architecture featuring no accounts, no telemetry, and zero remote data transmission. It also offers actionable budget warnings in the status line to proactively prevent unexpected API bills and is fully open-source and MIT licensed.
