TokenBar lives in your menu bar and gives you a quick way to check usage, credits, resets, and alerts across the AI tools you already use. It is meant to feel simple and glanceable, not like a whole monitoring setup.
Live token view
One menu bar. The numbers stay easy to check.
TokenBar
A quick usage view that stays close by
OpenAI usage change
A usage jump shows up right away.
You can catch it before it disappears into a later billing total.
More than one app open
Usage from different tools stays easier to separate.
If OpenAI, Claude, or a supported app are all contributing, the change is easier to read in one place.
What TokenBar helps you notice
You should not have to remember which app, tab, or retry caused the jump. TokenBar keeps that answer closer at hand.
Usage jumps
See when the number moves before it turns into a surprise.
Extra retries
Notice repeated requests while the cause is still fresh.

The stage stays clean. The screenshots stay real, and the popup waits until the section is properly in view before it opens so the motion feels intentional instead of rushed.
What This Shows
The dashboard image stays untouched now. The only thing that changes is the popup timing, so the section reads like the real product instead of a demo layered over the screenshot.
Popup opens in view
The menu bar popup stays quiet at first, then opens once the stage is properly in view instead of firing instantly.
No fake overlays
The dashboard screenshot stays clean and readable. Nothing is pasted over the metrics anymore.
Real product motion
The only animation is the popup reveal and a light stage drift, so the section still feels polished without inventing fake states.
Where Spend Starts
For most people, the problem is not heroic scale. It is a few extra tries, a longer chat, or a second AI app quietly adding to the day. TokenBar helps because it keeps those changes visible early.
Small shifts that add up
One more try
Easy to missA quick retry or minor tweak can quietly add more usage than expected.
Longer reply
Adds upA bigger answer can push the total up even when it feels like the same task.
Second app open
Same dayUsing another AI tool in the same afternoon can change the spend faster than you expect.
What usually happens later
Billing pages update later
By the time the total is clear, the reason usually is not.
Totals blur multiple apps together
You can see the spend changed without seeing what actually caused it.
A few retries look harmless
Several small requests can add up faster than expected.
Works With The Apps You Already Use
Most people are not juggling ten dashboards. They just want one place to check usage, credits, and resets across the two or three AI tools they use most.
Apps already in your day
Not another dashboard. One place to check usage.
OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, and supported editor activity stay easier to read together than across separate billing pages.
Chats, API usage, and everyday AI work
See usage change as it happens instead of piecing it together later.
Longer replies and longer conversations
Claude usage stays readable as chats expand instead of melting into a later total.
Gemini
Quota windows and direct usage
Usage and reset timing stay nearby without bouncing between separate pages.
Supported editor help and related provider usage
If you use AI inside your editor, supported activity is easier to keep in view. Coverage still depends on the integration and routing.
Also works with OpenRouter, Vertex AI, OpenCode, Factory, Augment, Amp, JetBrains AI, Kiro, Warp, z.ai, Kimi, Kimi K2, MiniMax, Ollama, and other supported tools people use alongside the main providers.
Social Proof
Why It Feels Useful Fast
Easy visibility, local-first defaults, and straightforward pricing are the reasons TokenBar makes sense quickly. The page should feel that way too.
Quick visibility
The value is simple: when the number moves, you can still connect it to the app or habit that caused it.
Live usage view
One place to check what is changing right now.
Usage jumps
Unexpected growth shows up early instead of becoming a later surprise.
App activity
Supported apps stay easier to read together instead of disappearing into a single total.
Extra retries
Repeated requests are easier to spot while the cause is still fresh.
Local-first
Usage analytics stay on your Mac where possible. That matters because this should feel like a small utility you can trust, not another service you have to wire into your day.
Pricing
Basic $5 or Pro $10
Choose the version that matches how much you want from the app. The pricing stays small, clear, and easy to scan, and Pro stays a one-time $10 lifetime purchase.

Trust Signals
Instead of vague hype, TokenBar should make the product, operator, pricing, and best-fit user obvious fast enough that people do not need to decode the marketing.
Why it matters
The site should define TokenBar plainly as a macOS menu bar app for AI usage visibility with a clear job and a clear product boundary.
Why it matters
TokenBar is sold by Aura Technologies LLC, with public legal pages, clear pricing, and a direct support address linked from the site.
Why it matters
The strongest trust signal is specificity: clear pages for features, pricing, install flow, provider coverage, and the everyday questions people ask before buying.
Use Cases
Some people start with OpenAI, some with Claude, some with Cursor. Usually they are trying to answer a simpler question: what is adding up, and do I need to pay attention right now?
OpenAI and Codex
TokenBar keeps changes visible in your menu bar so you do not have to wait for a later total.
Claude usage tracking
Longer replies and mixed-provider use are easier to follow from one glanceable view.
Cursor and editor support
If you use AI inside your editor, TokenBar helps keep that supported activity from fading into the background.
How It Works
The product should feel lightweight to adopt and easy to keep around. This section should read like a straightforward routine, not a bigger system to manage.
Daily rhythm
Leave TokenBar in the menu bar and glance at it when something feels off. It should feel closer to a utility than a new routine.
Step 01
Drop the macOS app into your menu bar once. The setup is intentionally short so the useful part starts immediately.
Step 02
Connect the AI apps and providers you already use. The point is to check usage without rebuilding your habits around a new dashboard.
Step 03
Glance at usage, credits, resets, and alerts while things are still changing, so the number still makes sense when you look at it.
What this adds up to
The story lands better when it stays simple: install it once, keep it nearby, check it when you need it.
FAQ
These questions cover what people usually want to know before installing TokenBar: who it is for, what it supports, how pricing works, and why keeping usage nearby is useful.
Ask Your AI
Pick the AI you actually use. The preview swaps to match it, and the same question stays ready inside the input before opening the real app in a new tab.
Choose your favorite AI
Opens ChatGPT in a new tab and copies the question as backup. Short version: TokenBar is a macOS menu bar app that keeps AI usage, credits, and resets easy to check.
