Tokenly shows how much of your AI plans you have actually used — subscription limits, extra credit packs and API spend — in one calm dashboard. HOW IT WORKS Tokenly runs on your Mac or PC, where you connect the AI accounts you already pay for: your Claude.ai session, your ChatGPT account, an OpenAI billing key, an Anthropic admin key. It reads the usage numbers straight from each provider, on your own machine. Nothing routes through our servers, and your prompts and conversations are never read, stored or relayed. This iPhone and iPad app is the companion. It mirrors that dashboard from your desktop over your local Wi-Fi, end-to-end encrypted, so the numbers are on your phone while your keys never leave the desktop. The Mac and Windows apps are free — you need one of them to feed this app. Not set up yet? Tap "See a demo" to explore Tokenly with sample data before pairing anything. WHAT YOU SEE • Subscription usage — the Claude.ai 5-hour window, ChatGPT plan caps, weekly limits, reset countdowns • Extra credits — top-ups and pay-as-you-go pools that sit on top of a subscription • API spend — month-to-date cost per key, and a projection for the rest of the month • Budgets — set a monthly budget per provider and get told at 50%, 80% and 100% • Widgets and a Lock Screen Live Activity and Dynamic Island, so the number is one glance away • History charts of usage and spend, recorded on your device • Confidence labels on every gauge — official, estimated or stale. Tokenly tells you when it does not know something instead of guessing. PRIVACY • No inference proxy. Your prompts never travel through us. • No prompt or completion storage. Ever. • Credentials stay in the system keychain of the device you entered them on. • Privacy Mode hides your numbers on lock-screen widgets and notifications. PRICING • The Mac and Windows apps are free, unlimited and ad-free. You only need one of them. • On iPhone and iPad, Tokenly starts with a 7-day free trial of Premium, with everything unlocked. • After the trial, a free tier keeps working; Premium turns desktop sync back on. • Premium is your choice: Lifetime $34.99 one-time, Monthly $2.99, or Yearly $14.99. • No ads on any platform. No account needed. Restore Purchases is always one tap away. Built on a Mac. Rust core, native SwiftUI on Apple platforms. Every connector documents the exact endpoints it calls and the data it reads. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
