TokenCounter vs Icelus

TokenCounter is the simplest way to keep tabs on what your Anthropic API account is costing this month — without giving up your privacy. Paste your Admin API key once, and the app fetches live cost data straight from Anthropic to your iPhone. You'll see: • Month-to-date spend across your whole organization • Today's intra-day cost estimate (Anthropic's daily report only closes yesterday's bucket; we add a token-priced estimate of today) • Breakdown by model • Quick visual sense of whether you're under, on track, or over your usual monthly burn • A monthly spend limit you set on-device, with a gauge that warns as you approach it • An optional alert the first time you cross 90% of your limit in a month TokenCounter does not have a server. The app talks directly from your iPhone to api.anthropic.com using your key. Nothing about your account, key, usage, or cost ever passes through any third party — including us. WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT • No account to create. • No analytics, no crash reporting, no advertising SDKs, no third-party trackers. Zero. • Your Admin API key is stored only in the iOS Keychain on this device, protected by Face ID / Touch ID / your passcode. • One-tap "Disconnect" in Settings wipes the key from Keychain. • Native SwiftUI, no web views for data, no bloated frameworks. WHAT YOU NEED TokenCounter reads from Anthropic's Admin API, which requires: 1. An organizational Anthropic account (admin keys aren't available on individual accounts). 2. An Admin API key. The onboarding flow walks you through creating both. If you already have them, it's about 30 seconds to be up and running. WHO IT'S FOR Developers, founders, and ML engineers who use Anthropic's API every day and want a fast way to check spend without logging into the Console on the web. Especially useful if you're testing prompts that could rack up cost quickly and you want a glanceable number on your home screen. PRIVACY See maximumimpact.studio/tokencounter/privacy for the full policy. TL;DR: we don't collect any data because we have nowhere to put it.

Icelus is a design tool for screens. Design on a real canvas; underneath, every screen is text. Pick a part, tap the canvas, and it lands there as a real button, field, switch or table. One switch in Settings shows the same screen as box-drawing characters. Buttons, inputs, tables, date pickers, tab bars, charts, 38 parts in all. Draw arrows between them, add a big title, and move things around until the screen looks right. Or type the whole screen in a few lines and let Icelus draw it. Then copy it. A Icelus screen is text underneath, so it pastes into a pull request, an issue, a README, a chat or a code comment, and it stays editable wherever it lands. No image to attach, no design file to open. What you get: - A real canvas: parts draw as real controls on artboards, with a Settings switch for the text look - Brush, eraser, selections, gradients, 16 terminal colors, adjustment layers and masks - 38 parts, each its own object you can move, resize, duplicate and reorder - Several screens on one canvas, linked by arrows, copied as one document - Screen templates: sign in, settings, list, detail, empty state - Highlights, your own saved parts, and iOS, Material, terminal and email packs - Copy HTML: the layout as real elements for a developer - Paste any text wireframe and edit it - Shortcuts: Draw a screen, Make plain ASCII - 27 languages and full VoiceOver support - Arrows that stay attached when parts move - Type a screen in a few lines, and copy any sketch back as those lines - Turn a photo into block art, or trace over one - Text boxes, banners and five box styles - Tables you edit as typed rows, with columns that grow - Bar charts, sparklines and progress rows drawn from numbers - Flowcharts from a line like a -> b -> c - Sequence diagrams from lines like User -> App: Sign in - Trees from an indented list - Groups that move as one - A layer list: hide, lock, reorder - Symbols: edit one copy, every copy follows - Pressed, disabled and error states - Snap and alignment guides - Copy as text, Markdown or plain ASCII, or share an image - Autosave and 50 steps of undo - Keyboard control on the Mac - The same project file on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and the web Everything stays on your device.
