AI Karma Tracker

I build with several AI tools every day, and the thing that kept breaking my flow was not the model quality - it was getting cut off mid-task with no warning. Claude throttles on a rolling 5-hour window, ChatGPT has separate per-feature caps, Cursor counts monthly fast requests. Each one lives behind a different screen, and none of them tell you where you stand until you are already blocked.

So I built AI Karma Tracker. It reads the limits from the sessions you are already logged into and puts them in one popup: what is left, when it resets, and a warning before you hit the wall. It also nudges you during peak hours, when shared capacity burns faster.

Two things I deliberately did not do:

1. No API keys. It reads your own logged-in sessions in the browser, so there is nothing to paste and no extra billing.

2. No servers. Usage data is stored locally in your browser. I never see it. The only thing that leaves your machine is your license key, and only to verify it.

Free tracks one tool of your choice. $2/month tracks everything.

Honest limitation: these usage endpoints are undocumented, so when a provider changes theirs, a reading can break until I ship a fix. Also Google exposes nothing for Gemini, so it is not supported.

Happy to answer anything, and very interested in which tools you want added next.

    The interesting part wasn't tracking AI usage—it was removing uncertainty before it interrupts someone's workflow.

    Making limits visible across multiple tools turns an invisible operational problem into something people can actually plan around, which feels more valuable than simply reporting usage after the fact.
