## What is AI Watchman?

AI Watchman is the only app that tracks your Claude and ChatGPT rate limits across iPhone, Apple Watch, widgets, and the Dynamic Island...all in real time!

If you use Claude or ChatGPT with a Pro subscription, you know the frustration: you're deep in a conversation and suddenly hit an invisible usage cap. There's no built-in way to easily see how close you are to a session or weekly limit.

Until now.

Track Claude and Codex in one place
AI Watchman monitors both your Claude (Anthropic) and Codex (OpenAI) usage limits simultaneously. Switch between services with a single tap to see session and weekly usage for each, all from one unified dashboard.

Know before you hit the wall
AI Watchman doesn't just show your current usage, it predicts when you'll hit your limit. A built-in prediction engine uses linear regression on your recent usage velocity to estimate the exact time you'll reach capacity. If you're burning through tokens fast, you'll see a warning with an estimated limit time before it happens.

Live Activities and Dynamic Island
Pin your usage to the Dynamic Island or Lock Screen with Live Activities. See session and weekly meters update in real time without opening the app. Run separate Live Activities for Claude and Codex, or combine both into a single view.

Apple Watch companion
Your usage syncs automatically to Apple Watch via WatchConnectivity. Check session and weekly limits from your wrist with radial dials or horizontal bars which are the same display styles available on iPhone. Switch between Claude and Codex with the Digital Crown!

Home screen widgets
Small and medium widgets display your current usage at a glance with color-coded progress bars that shift from green to yellow to red as you approach your limit. Widgets can refresh in the background so your data stays current.

Siri and Shortcuts
Ask Siri "How much Claude usage do I have left?" or "Am I near my Codex limit?" and get an instant spoken summary. App Intents power four built-in Shortcuts so you can integrate usage checks into any automation.

Customizable themes and typography
Choose from 23 color themes from Terracotta and Midnight to Ocean, Plum, and Citrus. Pick from 9 font styles including Rounded, Serif, Monospaced, and Condensed. Your theme applies everywhere: the app, widgets, Apple Watch, and Live Activities.

What makes AI Watchman different?
Other usage trackers, if they exist at all, cover a single service with a basic percentage. You also need to manually enter in your credentials for these trackers to work. AI Watchman is the only app that combines multi-service tracking, predictive rate-limit warnings, Live Activities, Apple Watch sync, Siri integration, historical usage analytics, and deep visual customization into one cohesive experience! It's built natively in SwiftUI with no accounts to create, and no data collected because your session keys stay on your device and in your iCloud keychain.
