Track your AI service usage and stay within your limits. THE PROBLEM AI services have usage quotas. You lose track. Limits hit at the worst time. WHY CHECKING MANUALLY ISN'T ENOUGH Each service has its own settings page — but nobody opens five different apps to check usage one by one until it's too late. THE SOLUTION AIUsage tracks your AI service quotas — Claude, Cursor, Antigravity, and more. See exactly how much you've used, how much is left, and when it resets. Simple. Visual. No more surprise limits. Support: steve_ham@icloud.com

Stop guessing how much of your AI quota is left. Tokenman monitors your usage across Claude and ChatGPT (Codex) in one dashboard — so you know exactly how close you are to hitting your 5-hour or 7-day limit before you hit it. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • See every provider at a glance One clean dashboard with per-account rings and progress bars. Sort by who's using the most. • Wake Claude Alarm Your 5-hour window starts at your first message — so start it on your schedule, not after your work has already started. Set a one-time or repeating alarm, tap Wake Claude when it rings, and your session opens right there. Pick the time, the days, the sound, and which accounts to wake. Requires iOS 26 or later. • Home-screen widget Configure the small widget for any account. See your 5-hour and 7-day usage without opening the app. • Alerts when you're running low Optional push notifications at 70% and 90%. Never get cut off mid-conversation because you weren't watching. • Auto-refresh in the background Your data stays fresh even when the app is closed. Come back to the current number, not a stale one. • Multi-account, multi-provider Track separate Claude or ChatGPT accounts for whatever purpose you use them — personal, work, side project, client work, or a shared team seat.
