Why MeterBar?

See your AI quota at a glance. No browser tabs, no dashboards, no friction.

Native macOS Widgets

Add widgets to your Notification Center in small, medium, or large sizes. See your remaining quota without opening any app.

Menu Bar Dashboard

Click the menu bar icon to see all your AI services at once. Green means good, yellow means slow down, red means stop.

Claude + OpenAI + Cursor

Monitor Claude Pro, OpenAI API credits, and Cursor usage from one app. Add more accounts as needed.

Privacy-First Design

Credentials stored in macOS Keychain with hardware encryption. No external servers, no accounts to create, no data collection.

Auto-Sync

Usage syncs automatically in the background. Optimized for battery life with configurable refresh intervals.

Limit Warnings

Get notified at 50%, 75%, and 90% usage. Customize thresholds to match your workflow.

Your credentials never leave your Mac. Zero telemetry. Zero cloud. 100% local.
