Stop Logging into the OpenAI Dashboard
Checking your OpenAI API token burn shouldn't require opening a browser tab and navigating through billing pages. Notchy brings live OpenAI, ChatGPT, and Codex usage tracking right to your Mac's physical notch.
Why Notchy is the ultimate OpenAI tracker
- Supports 15+ Providers, Not Just OpenAI
Most trackers only support one API. Notchy tracks OpenAI, Claude, Cursor, Perplexity, Gemini, and 15+ other providers seamlessly. All your AI spending is centralized in one beautiful, native UI.
- Animated Sunburst Visuals
Instead of dry numbers on a web page, you get a gorgeous, animated sunburst chart that actively shimmers and counts up as your AI agents make API calls.
- Always Visible System-Wide
Whether you're in Xcode, VS Code, or a terminal, your Mac's notch is always visible. Your token limits and current usage are surfaced natively in the Dynamic Island without interrupting your workflow.
