Understand your AI and cloud costs without jumping between provider dashboards. API Usage brings OpenAI, Anthropic, and Vercel billing data into one clear, customisable view. Connect multiple organisations, choose the metrics and time ranges that matter to you, and keep important totals visible on your Home Screen. BUILD YOUR DASHBOARD - Track daily spend across configurable time ranges - Break down costs by project, service, API key, workspace, or model - Choose list, bar, line, area, or donut chart styles - Create compact or detailed tiles for each organisation CHECK COSTS FROM YOUR HOME SCREEN - Turn any dashboard tile into a widget - Choose the organisation and metric for each widget - Use small, medium, or large widget layouts - Keep snapshots updated in the background when iOS allows MADE FOR MULTIPLE PROVIDERS - Connect more than one organisation per provider - View OpenAI, Anthropic, and Vercel independently - Add, edit, or remove organisations at any time YOUR CREDENTIALS STAY ON YOUR DEVICE Credentials are stored in the iOS Keychain. API Usage communicates directly with the provider you connect and does not send your credentials or billing data to a Barolo AI server. API Usage is an independent product and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by OpenAI, Anthropic, or Vercel.

Terminull pairs with your Mac and lets you drive your AI coding agents from anywhere โ€” on your iPhone or iPad. Watch them work, steer them, approve changes. End-to-end encrypted. Start real coding sessions from the couch, the train, or away from your desk. Your agent runs on your own machine, with your own tools and files. Terminull is just the window into it. WORKS WITH THE AGENTS YOU ALREADY USE Drive all your favorite command-line coding agents out of the box โ€” including Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Goose, and OpenCode. Terminull detects what is installed and drives it. Switch agent and model per session. BUILT FOR REAL WORK, NOT JUST CHAT - Rich streaming output: diffs, code blocks, to-do plans, and command results rendered natively - Multiple concurrent sessions with a live status carousel on your Lock Screen - Notifications when a session finishes, needs input, or hits an error โ€” even if the app was force-quit - Scheduled runs that start on their own - Voice input with on-device transcription โ€” dictate a task, hands-free PRIVATE BY DESIGN - End-to-end encrypted between your device and your Mac - Connects directly over your local network at home, or securely relayed when you are away - LAN-only mode keeps everything on your network with no cloud at all - No account required to pair with your own machine YOUR MACHINE, YOUR RULES The agent runs where your code lives. Nothing is uploaded to us โ€” Terminull relays encrypted messages, never your source. Set restricted paths, pick your models, and bring your own provider keys. Get started in under a minute: install the free Terminull companion โ€” a lightweight menu-bar app for your Mac โ€” scan the pairing QR, and you are connected.
