On your Mac - Your providers' quotas and reset times, one click away in the menu bar - Pace: whether your quota will last until it resets, or when it will run out - Estimated cost from your Claude Code and Codex logs, calculated on your Mac - Usage history for each provider, an activity heatmap and a cost forecast - Active and recent sessions by project, with usage and estimated cost - Alerts when a quota crosses a threshold you choose and, when you are signed in, when your daily cost suddenly jumps - Cost reports you can export as CSV or PDF - Pulse Cat, an optional desktop cat whose vitals follow your real AI usage - No account needed: in local mode your usage stays on this Mac On iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch - The same quotas, costs, sessions and alerts, synced from your Mac - Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets (Pro) - Siri and Shortcuts: ask for today's status or for one provider's remaining quota - Apple Watch: quota rings, alerts and sessions on your wrist The iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch apps show what CLI Pulse collects on your Mac.
