I kept getting surprised by Claude/Cursor usage, so I built TokenBar.
TokenBar lives in the macOS menu bar and tracks AI token usage live, so you can see cost creep before it gets ugly.
It is a simple lifetime purchase, $5.
If you are paying for AI tools and want a quick sanity check on usage, it might save you from the monthly shock.

Hey, great product! Are you going to build the same for Windows?
This makes a lot of sense. Cost awareness usually matters more when it happens in the moment, not at the end of the month, so the menu bar format feels like a very natural fit.
