Big update: 20+ AI providers, usage alerts, and new Pro tier
Hey everyone! Wanted to share what's new with TokenBar.
We just shipped a major update that adds support for 20+ AI providers including OpenAI, Claude/Anthropic, Gemini, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, OpenRouter, and Vertex AI. You can now see all your AI spending in one glance from your Mac menu bar.
What's new:
Usage alerts that notify you when spending jumps unexpectedly (catch runaway scripts before they become a surprise bill)
- Redesigned menu bar UI for faster glanceability
- New Pro tier ($10 lifetime) with advanced analytics and multi-provider comparison
- Everything still runs locally on your Mac, no cloud sync, no accounts
If you're juggling multiple AI subscriptions and API keys, this is built for you. Would love to hear what providers you'd like us to add next.

Quick thing I’ve noticed after shipping this to a few heavy AI users:
People usually do not care about raw token counts until one of 3 things happens:
1. their Claude bill jumps
2. Cursor usage stops making sense
3. a background script quietly burns credits
TokenBar was built for that exact moment. It’s a tiny macOS menu bar app that shows usage live across OpenAI, Claude, Cursor, OpenRouter, GitHub Copilot, and more, so you can catch weird spikes before they become a surprise.
A few things users have found useful:
• seeing which tool is actually driving spend during a workday
• spotting accidental loops and bad prompts fast
• keeping personal experiments separate from client work
• getting cost visibility without sending data to another SaaS
Still trying to make it sharper for people who bounce between Claude, Cursor, and APIs all day. If that’s you, what would you want to see in the menu bar first: today’s spend, per-provider breakdown, or rate of burn?
