macOS menu bar · v1.0

Your AI coding usage,
one glance away.

Four tabs, one menu bar

Everything you check between prompts — without leaving your flow.

Click the menu bar icon and it's all there. No dashboard to open, no browser tab, no context switch.

Tab 01 — Usage

Usage at a glance

/usage-style cards for your 5-hour and weekly windows: how much is free, burn prediction, and pace warnings — read straight from the menu bar.

Tab 02 — Accounts

One-click switching

Juggling multiple accounts? Swap between them instantly. Credentials move atomically through the Keychain and your config — no re-login dance.

Tab 03 — Stats

Trends & heatmap

Session-log-based statistics reveal your usage patterns over time — daily trends and an activity heatmap so you can see how you actually work.

Tab 04 — System

System resources

CPU, memory, and process load — right beside your AI usage. The unified developer dashboard other trackers leave out.

Why Usage Monitor

Usage trackers stop at usage. This one keeps going.

Most menu bar trackers show a number and call it a day. Usage Monitor adds the two things multi-account developers actually need: your system's health, and a fast way to switch identities.

Questions

Good to know before you buy.

01 Do I need a Claude Code account?
Yes. Usage Monitor reads the usage and account information that your AI coding CLI already stores locally. It's a companion for your existing setup — it doesn't provide the AI service itself, and it never asks for your password.
02 Is this a subscription?
No. It's $7 once and it's yours for life, including free updates throughout the v1.x line. No recurring charges, no account required to run it.
03 Is my data safe?
Your tokens never leave your Mac. Credentials are read from and written to the macOS Keychain only — Usage Monitor has no server and sends none of your data anywhere. The app is Apple-notarized so Gatekeeper trusts the build.
04 What about refunds?
If it doesn't work for you, email us within 14 days of purchase and we'll refund it, no interrogation. We'd rather you be happy than hold $7.
05 Which macOS versions are supported?
macOS 14.0 Sonoma or later, on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs. The download is a universal binary of about 4 MB and idles under 50 MB of memory.

Stay in your terminal. Keep usage in sight.

Focus on the work — your usage lives in the menu bar, one glance away. Coffee-price, one-time.
