Per-provider budgets
Set monthly budgets per account or provider. We watch the burn rate and project where you’ll land at month end.
Native alerts
Get a real OS notification at 50%, 80%, and 100% — not an email digest you’ll miss three hours later.
Inside the dashboard
Every dollar, every model, every project — in one window.
The popover is what you glance at. The dashboard is where you sit down with a coffee and figure out what the team actually shipped this week.

How it works
Paste a key. Forget about it.
Setup takes about a minute. After that the app polls your providers in the background and lives in your menu bar. No accounts, no servers, no dashboards to remember to open.
Connect
Paste an admin key, once.
Drop a single admin key per provider into the first-run wizard. We hit the provider's identity endpoint to make sure it's valid, then hand it to your OS keychain.

- Verified at paste time
- Never leaves your machine

Poll
We watch the providers, every 5 minutes.
A small Tokio scheduler walks each enabled account, asks the provider for the last few days of usage and cost, and rolls them up by project and model. Stored locally in SQLite. No server, no telemetry, no account.
- Backfills 90 days on first connect
- Re-polls trailing days while costs finalize
- Configurable interval — down to 1 minute
